The hotel told me that we requested a King bed and a smoking room. I am allergic to cigarette smoke and was traveling with my 3 older children. The hotel told me that they were overbooked and could not move me to a different room. The desk clerk offered a roll away and air cleaners for my room. I stayed in a different hotel the first night, paying for an extra room because the room smelled so bad. The next day I asked for a different room and was told no. I asked for the roll away and the air cleaners. The clerk on during the day told me that the hotel did not have air cleaners only air fresheners. The night clerk described the air cleaners to me as electric fans that cleaned the air. I told her that and she said that there was no such thing there. About a half an hour later, the clerk, called and told me that they were moving me to a non-smoking room, but we still had a king sized bed. They did provide a roll away. I was very grateful for her efforts. In our bathroom I picked up a stack of towels and found a moldy washcloth on the bottom. Every day when housekeeping cleaned our room they took the extra blankets we were using for the roll away and we had to request more in the evening. When we requested them, the clerk did not believe that they were gone and asked us to check in several places before he would actually send us up a blanket. Finally, when housekeeping cleaned our room, they took my pillow from home and threw it on the floor and that is where I found it when I got back that evening.

Positives: The desk clerk was great. She went out of her way to move us to a nicer room, non-smoking that did not smell like an ashtray.

Negatives: The fact that they were "overbooked" and told me about that more than once.

Wow! this place was so bad the people that work there must hate their jobs. We got there on Wednesday night, it was ok was stayed until Saturday. Friday night after a long day out we just wanted to use the pool well, it was closed for a party. My 3-year-old, 5-year-old were not happy campers.

Positives: Not happy at all.

Negatives: The pool was closed.

Exceeded my expectations, price was fantastic. Room was very clean, nice bathroom, lots of pillows. Plenty of in room entertainment options. Having a Red Robin connected to the lobby was great to have; the store was good with good hours. Big parking lot. Congested at street during traffic time but it is LA. Near everything, right off the freeway. Would not hesitate to use again.

Positives: Central location, clean, nice facilities.

Negatives: Hard to get in and out of parking lot during traffic time.

Very nice, the beds were excellent and very comfortable and the room was very clean. The bathroom door was too big and when opened was a hindrance inside the small room with more that one person. The area was nice and the staff was extremely accommodating and friendly.

Positives: The beds were one of the most comfortable I've slept in, in a hotel.

Negatives: Skimpy on the breakfast.

The hotel was wonderful. We arrived after a day of painting and enjoyed relaxing in the Jacuzzi. The foyer of the hotel, with the fireplace lit and comfortable chairs was so inviting. I was very surprised at all the wonderful amenities offered as it was rated only 2.5.

Positives: The room was beautiful, the staff wonderful with our request for extra towels.

Negatives: The restaurant's buffet left something to be desired, especially due to the price.

I was very surprised that the rooms were so nice/they were 3 star qualities/ the outside is much older and is ready for renovation/ the restaurant was Red Robin and was excellent. The staff was friendly and made sure we had everything we asked for.

Positives: The rooms were the best part of the stay.

Negatives: The outside was not appealing.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 07 Sep 2007 rated 6 out of 10.

This hotel exceeds a 2.5 star but lacks the direction of what it wants to be a 2.5 or 3. The furnishings and amenities are a three star but restaurants are lacking.

Positives: Free breakfast.

Negatives: Elevator was very loud and could not sleep.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 23 Jun 2007 rated 8 out of 10.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 03 May 2007 rated 5 out of 10.

Too many other good competitors to return to this one.

Negatives: Bathroom not well maintained.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 02 Apr 2007 rated 5 out of 10.

The hotel was nice and attractive, needs to be updated from the outside. View is industrial and staffing was inadequate as well as lacking in friendliness and courtesy as well as willingness to provide service. Security seemed more involved in comfort and service than the service personnel.

Positives: Clean, nice parking, reasonably maintained.

Negatives: Poor room servicing, poor staffing and service.
