Stayed here with wife on a weekend trip to LA. We needed a hotel that was fairly close to UCLA. The hotel could use a lot of updating, new bed linens would be a great start. The evening staff was very helpful, mid-day staff could care less. No matter how busy things got, there was only one clerk. There weren't... more

Went to UCLA for a conference with a fellow grad student (females 25 and 30). Had to find a place for around $120 because thats all our school reimburses but wanted to be close to campus and this fit the bill. Right off 405 on Santa Monica so convenient to get around. Hotel is just great! I love the setup,... more

The hotel is also perfectly located on Santa Monica blvd for easy access to the bus routes: Santa Monica pier (15min), Hollywood (20 min) and... more

The dining area is outdoors so plan... more

Stayed here 3 nights in March 2008. Room was clean and comfortable, excellent bed and lots of pillows, large refrigerator. Continental breakfast was ample, dining area is outdoors so plan on taking back to your room if weather is less than ideal. The hotel is right next to the 405, our room was at the opposite end from the freeway... more

Stayed there for a week in December. Place is what the below reviews have said. It's a outdoor hotel with an outdoor Continental breakfast. Rooms are small, but updated and bed is comfortable. Overall its clean. You pay for convenience here. I had to be on Wilshire Blvd every day for business so convenience was important. Traffic is terrible in... more
