Residence Inn

The layout of the room is really weird for Chinese. We have a saying that when you wake up and sit on the bed, if you can see the door of the room right facing to you, that is not good because only dead people would lie down like this so his/her body could be easily moved to outside the room. Maybe other countries don't have a saying like this, so it is OK for them. But it is really not OK for us.

Positives: Good location, and cheap.

Negatives: The layout of the room is really uncomfortable for Chinese.

The hotel was clean and spacious the only thing that it lacked was security after hours which made it very upsetting when you cannot sleep when your neighbor is have a drinking party after midnight.

Positives: The space is excellent for families.

Negatives: There is no security after hours and our neighbors had a party between midnight and 5 am.

Have stayed at chain before. Have hit another in chain that I did not enjoy due to parking and lack of maintenance. This was at the opposite end, nice, quiet, well-kept. Even though first was given room with broken toilet, immediately given a replacement room. Staff was very helpful and cheerful.

Positives: Liked furnishings, kitchen, internet, helpful staff.

Negatives: Carrying bags upstairs to room. Broken toilet: had to change rooms.

This hotel was conveniently located near many well-known restaurant chains and just a few miles away from a big shopping mall. The breakfast they provided was excellent and went above and beyond continental. The rooms were exactly as expected - clean and met all of our needs (incl. a little kitchen, wired and wireless internet, a pullout sofa bed). We had a great time in the pool and hot tub at midnight. The front desk was always courteous and helpful. The drive to and from LA's main attractions was on the long side, but it was nice to have an affordable and comfortable home to come back to after a busy day.

Positives: The breakfast, the 24hr pool, near mall and restaurants.

Negatives: It was a bit far from the main LA tourist attractions.

Great bargain for 3-star hotel, good location for our purposes.

Positives: The spaciousness and comfortableness with living area and desk/work area.
