Not.Worth.It!
I am a strong believer in 'You get what you pay for' but in saying that, no matter what price you pay a hotel has no excuse for unattended maintenance issues. The rooms here are clean, they are tired and very outdated but had no issues with the cleanliness.
The towels and bathroom linen is very inconsistent. I stayed overall for 5 nights, and each day had a different amount of towels each day. Sometimes I got three bath mats and no towels. Other days I had one towel, one bath mat and four hand towels. So just be aware of that. There are no in room safes, the beds are a bit firm, but the sheets are soft and clean. We had a lot of trouble with the wifi, so don't count on it. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. We had the air-conditioner running in the morning and in the evening as the rooms are very stuffy, and dont have very good ventilation. The windows dont open very well, but the air-conditioner was good while it worked. It would turn its self off every five minutes, and then start up on its own time. The bathrooms are very big, but very old and are constantly making odd noises which affected our sleep a lot.
For two young women, this area was not safe, nor would I ever bring a family here. The location is not worth the price you pay. Hollywood is not as glamorous at night as it is during the day. In fact on our first night, we were awoken at 3am to 4 very distinct gun shots fired a few blocks up, followed by several police cars and an ambulance. It was on the news the next morning also. I understand this is not the motels fault, but the location is not at all worth it. The breakfast? I'm not sure who is writing these reviews, Im assuming the hotel staff are making duplicate accounts and giving themselves good reviews, because the breakfast is simply two juice dispensers, a few packets of cereal and some milk. Not. Worth. IT! And a pool? There is no pool.. Well, not that I saw or was directed to. The vending machine doesn't work, and the elevator is creeky. This motel is very cheap, and good value but not for location. It is a run down basic motel, the front desk staff are very casual, which is good for when you need late check out, but not when you need anything else. At one point we asked for them to call a taxi, and they must have a special contract with a transfer company because when we got our taxi to the airport, a van pulled up with no metre inside, it took what usually is a 30-40minute ride to the airport turned into a 2 and a half hour journey through suburbia. Taxis have a flat rate of $40 this company cost $60 dollars, and he 'Didn't have change' so in the end cost $80. When we asked for a taxi to take us to the local shopping district, the front desk simply said 'Just walk, its only a few blocks' so we did, and it took us 40 minutes on foot.
Overall, the rooms are spacious, a bit run down but good for what you pay. I wouldn't stay here again, the price isn't worth it for the location. I would highly recommend finding somewhere else if you are travelling with a family.
