If Cup-O-Noodles is for you then you’ll enjoy the complimentary breakfast. But wait there’s more. You can also have toast, stale grain cereal or close-to-spoiled apples and bananas. The orange juice was good though. It was the equivalent of a smash and grab breakfast you’d devour before you had to run and catch the school bus about to leave. Overall the property looked like it was purchased in foreclosure for 1/2 a penny on the dollar. The room. Have mercy, the room. I would’ve had more stability using the toilet on an aircraft carrier in a hurricane than the toilet in our room. It swayed, and listed, back and forth as you sat on it for some odd reason. Water also leaked from the toilet onto the floor so I wrapped it with towels to keep the floor dry as possible. The air conditioner sounded like a harrier jet hovering in place when on. Yes air conditioners make noise but this one needed flight authorization. If you stepped or jumped over a large puddle please understand that that was the pool. It’s more a Shaq sized bathtub than a pool. Overall an old pig of a hotel with some lipstick on it. The daily pricing is out of line with the overall quality and amenities supplied. Most front desk staff, other than one, were loosely capable of understanding English. Positives: The location is nice and many restaurants in walking distance. But f you just need a place to crash then sure. Keep your expectations very…very low though, and your securely locked.

The room and the property were fine . But the breakfast was so CHEAP cold cereal, OJ, weak coffee a long with generic coffee creamer. It's not even a Continental breakfast because there was no FRUIT! Very disappointing especially since I was so hungry.

The room had a strange smell (though at least it was like a cleaner), the TV was on the fritz, and I could not figure out the shower, or it was broken. The bed an A/C were great though. Breakfast was also disappointing.

This was my first time at the this hotel and i loved it! The room was nice and spacious. I didnt expect a nice suite. The only real problem i had was the water pressure at the bathroom and it had a certain smell. It was tough to shower at times. But other than that, all good!

The staff were nice and helpful but overall if I wasn’t only looking for a place to sleep while in town for a convention I would’ve definitely chosen elsewhere the breakfast was laughable ramen cups 😂 dried throw up all over the elevator doors black mold in the bathroom and a roach that welcomed me in the shower as I was getting in was quite interesting to say the least

Room was decent. I got the 2 bedroom unit and it worked out for us. Parking lot was small. Not sure why they charged $16 for parking. Don’t know if someone else mentioned it but, the breakfast is cereal, toast, juice, coffee, and pastries. Don’t think it’s worth the mid week rate I paid IMO.

Check in desk is behind thick, bullet proof glass. That should have been my first hint… Rickety elevator ride to the fourth floor and when we stepped out we were met with a heavy urine smell. Quickly went into the room to get away from the stench outside and the room had a thick funky smell. Like chemicals trying to cover up other smells and not succeeding. Bottom line - gross hotel, the pictures are completely fabricated and do not reflect reality at this property.

This is a great hotel for a very reasonable price. We came up for a convention, so the hotel is in a perfect location. The rooms are very clean, and the beds are soooo comfortable. We loved everything about this place and will stay here again.

The staff was nice and the hotel is decent. Breakfast options were limited, but you get what you pay for. The area has a lot of restaurants and is close to Caltech and some other Pasadena highlights. The view of the foothills is gorgeous! Pool is nice enough and there are room service options if you like. The room was great with a personal air conditioner, amenities (fridge, freezer, microwave, etc), and was pretty clean. I'd stay again.
