It was okay, but they need to be more cleaner & vacuum hallways, fix elevator, and improve house keeping.

The staff here is outstanding - every member from the moment you walk in (the security guard and valet) to the front desk, and all the bar/kitchen staff have impeccable customer service. 10/10 for the amazing hospitality alone. The hotel property itself is fine. The rooms are small and very basic, and the property itself is noisy as there is a rooftop bar, so you can hear music and people talking late through the night.

Cool hotel
This hotel is a great place to visit during a trip to LA, has a great rooftop vibe. It's conveniently located walking distance to the Hollywood stars and other attractions. The rooms are cool, the lobby is practical but with two different chilling areas. The rooms are not bad for the price. Since LA is a driving city you'll need to have a car, so factor in that you'll be paying to don't valet charges as well. Also a few minor set backs happened during our stay, power and wifi went out for a day and had to be downgraded because of plumbing issues. Overall the hotel is not bad, and if they do a full renovation in the near future will be a great place to stay. It's half the price of 5-star hotels with similar theme and crowd, so you do get what you pay for. In summary, if you prefer quality go for one of the better known 5-star hotels. If you're on a limited budget but want somewhere clean with decent sized rooms and a cool vibe, then Mama Shelter is for you.

The staff was incredibly friendly and I was able to gain early access to my room. Brittany (front desk) was great as was a security guard (concierge) whose name I forget. They have a wonderfully retro entry area with a bar and dining area. There is also a rooftop bar (with live music, as I recall) which I was unable to visit. I'm returning to LA in mid August and plan to sty there again.

Staff was great! Front desk was pleasant upon arrival. The guys on Saturday morning 6/29 were very accommodating. Thank you! If going to the Bowl see if you can score the guys on the bikes -taking two passengers. Was fun and faster than UBER.

What a great find!
Last minute…11:30pm? 😂 After a long day of fun and sun we drove into Hollywood sooo tired. Pulled into a gas station and booked Mama Shelter. Drove to the hotel and the street and hotel were packed! What a hot spot. Darrell at the front desk found us a comfy seat and a refreshment while waiting for the reservation to make its way in! So friendly and helpful. We’ll be back!
