This is actually my third stay at Bluestem, and per usual, it was pleasant and enjoyable. The rooms are clean and the staff are friendly. It is by no means a luxury hotel, but it is definitely good quality at its price point. The only critique I had was that the beds are not particularly comfortable (soft) to my liking, but it was not horrible and uncomfortable; I know some prefer a firm mattress. I will return and recommend this location to anyone planning an LA trip, as it can be difficult to find good lodging for that price point in the city. Thanks, Bluestem, for your hospitality.
