This is an excellent choice for a basic room- the bed and shower were excellent and the staff helpful. The rooms are small and no real amenities, but perfect for a short stay and good sleep! Good value for LA!

Melissa

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The property seems very trendy and the bar/restaurant was nice. My room was tiny and next to the bathroom, also located near a staff closet for cleaning supplies. There was a party in the dining room for a conference that had noise until 11pm on a week night. The internet wasn’t great and the outlets were not near the bed or desk which made it pretty impossible to work. The bed was saggy on one side. I was there for a dinner/conference and at $365+ not worth it at all. The front desk was very nice and my server was also lovely. But sleep/noise/wifi are all important to me. Stay at the Culver Hotel, so much nicer.

The location is excellent. Walk to shops, restaurants, etc. . Parking around the hotel is permit only so this os a challenge but during the day, walk to public parking structures. Concierge only for overnight is pricey. Really enjoyed my stay.
