Hotel and room were very clean and serviced well every day. We were here for UCLA graduation and the location was very close to everything- campus, foods, etc. Perfect place!

Good! A little musty hallways from carpeting and limited air ventilation in rooms.

Beware for light sleepers, rooms are very thin walled, so you can hear everything in the rooms adjacent so good luck sleeping. Hotel cleaning staff also took our iphone charger our 2nd day, (we left it plugged into the wall since we used it on our 1st night, and was gone after cleaning on our 2nd day). this was brought up to the manager our charger was missing, and said they would follow up but never did. So be careful of your stuff and if you are a light sleeper.
The staff was not very forthcoming. The hot water ran out and they said they will issue a percentage of room tariff as refund which never came.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Cold water in the restroom and you can hear everything that’s going on above your room
Also shampoo bottles were empty I at least expected some
Shampoo from them
I wish they told us Parking is a fee… they made it like parking is free but it wasn’t told to us until we were leaving that morning. Felt like they pulled a fast one on us.
