Lovely room but too many add-on's
My boyfriend and I spent our last night in California here which we booked through Hotwire. The hotel itself was really lovely, and very grand, but having stayed places for £50 per night with free breakfast, wifi and parking we were not impressed with the amount of add-on's at this hotel. Wifi wasn't free, and neither was the water in the room. We didn't have breakfast included in our stay and you HAVE to valet park your car which is $30 per night, plus tips everytime you get your car out. The had bell boys to bring our bags, which I suppose is meant to be more convenient, but we had to wait about 30 minutes for our bags to arrive and it was just a pain! If you like the luxury of valet parking, having your bags delivered to your room then the hotel is perfect for you. Unfortunately for us, we would rather stay in a travel lodge with all the freebies for half the price! I must say, the room itself was lovely, and the bed was divine but it ended up costing a lot more to stay there than we'd hoped. On the other hand, LA hotels are so expensive and you certainly wouldn't have a bad time staying here!
