Hotel rooms need updates, no ventilation in the bathroom which makes room smell funky. Neighbors look a little bit sketchy. Won’t come back if I visit LA again.

Classy place
A very classy place. I would stay here again. There are very large b&w photos of old time movie stars on each floor in the hallways. This hotel has been here a very long time. Two things to be aware. No coffee maker or microwave in the room. There is a microwave off the lobby outside in the back of the hotel.

Front desk Michael and Betty were outstanding and really made our first trip to Los Angeles better than they would have been otherwise. Hotel is comfortable and historic. If you’re desiring the best and latest accomodations, this will disappoint. If you want a safe, comfortable, convenient location to tour LA with some great front desk staff, you will be pleased.

Very nice Historic Hotel. The only thing that could be better is if breakfast was made available. Also, the Bakery signs advertise that they are open until 7pm, but in actuality they close at 5pm. Diner was great. Room was great. WE loved the historic film pictures on each hallway. This add's a great touch.

We really enjoyed our stay. While due to keeping it as original as possible, it doesn’t have the modern amenities most desire, we think it had everything it needed. The staff was amazing. They were friendly and very helpful. They had recommendations for anything we needed; and we really appreciated their input. And the building was very cool. I loved the historic photos throughout. I would definitely recommend this hotel to people. We will more than likely stay here again in the future.

A good experience nearby Hollywood
The hotel is located in a good neighbor, a little bit too far from the most famous attractions in LA. The neighbor is a little unsafe to travel walking by yourself, but it has a good transport connection throughout all LA except the time to travel, as mentioned above. The hotel is clean, the reception is 24/7 available and it looks gorgeous from outside, a little bit old inside though but, in overall, a really good experience. I would recommend it if you would like starting your experience or focusing it on the northern part of LA, especially if you don't want to use Uber or Lyft. The neighbor is also covered by Waymo, which is a plus if you want to try it.
