Excellent budget hotel, staff person was great. Walking distance from a handful of fast food and a few restaurants. 5 minute walk to a Ralph's grocery store. I will return when I work in that area again.

Obviously not the coolest hotel I’ve ever been to. And it would be nice if they were stocked with drinks. But it was the cheapest hotel in town. Carlos the maintenance man was so sweet he let me borrow his charger and I just gave it to the front desk. Great Service ever. If you’re a dick they charge you for the parking. Don’t get a room facing Ventura. The noise is loud if you open the window. Otherwise good for its purpose.

Not bad at all just depends how stingy you are. Great price for the location. We just wanted a place to sleep,shower and close to Universal. Room was clean, great receptionist only bad thing is the parking size. If you want amenities this is not the place but there is plenty more options around here at a much higher price. We would book again.

Enjoyed a fantastic stay here with my family. Cheers to the guy who helped us for check-in- he is really sweet, helpful, and humorous! Our room is spacious, accomodating, cozy, and very clean. Laundry is available here too! Our room came with a fridge/microwave and coffee station. This place is located conveniently at the crossroads of Ralphs, the Center @ Coldwater, and Erewhon. There are plenty of fantastic dining options around here and is convenient to access Universal Studios, Sherman Oaks/Encino, Hollywood, and Burbank. The surrounding area is charming and we got a fantastic deal for the weekend. Parking is a breeze. Standard continental breakfast is also offered. As a Valley native, I highly recommend staying here on your next visit to this area!

Manager is so kind and helpful, as is all of the staff. Rooms are a little dated, furniture a little shabby, but everything is super clean. Room has all the amenities one could need. Great location for a reasonable price. It's my go-to when in LA.

Firstly, it’s a budget hotel. So one shouldn’t expect much, it gave exactly what a budget hotel gives. One of the times, my room wasn’t cleaned so when I checked with the reception, they informed me that every time I need my room cleaned, I need to let them know. There was a smell in the room when I entered but it could be the smell of the cleaning supplies that they used to clean the room!
