Loved It
I booked this hotel because of the good reviews on T/A, and the rate I got when I called the hotel.
To be honest, the hotel is not the most attractive in the world, and my husband was a bit dubious when we drove up... 
But, he was quick to change his opinion, the parking attendants are there when you arrive and friendly. The receptionist at check in was very welcoming and helpful.
We were in room 310, and the room was lovely! Nice solid doors (I know that sounds strange,, but I think it makes a difference) Very comfortable beds.
We didnt have a view, except to the worksite out back.. they were dismantling an older hotel.. I actually found it quite interesting! The noise was not an issue at all.. The windows can actually be opened for fresh air which I really like...but with the building and the traffic, I kept it closed most of the time.. 
Across the road is a Starbucks , Subway and some other food places.. which was handy for a coffee run. From memory, I dont think there is room service.. but there is a little convenience store in the lobby for snacks/ drinks.
The bathroom was spacious and modern.. hairdryer was broken, but was replaced without issue when I called about it.
Free Breakfast is a great bonus at the hotel. It was a great way to start the day.. eggs, bacon, pancakes, toast, fruit, yogurt, pastries, cereal.. Very well stocked and clean..Takeaway cups provided to take some coffee with you also.
Excellent Hollywood location.. 5 minute walk down to Hollywood Blvd.. and a very short drive to Universal Studios.
Its not 5 star by any means, but it was excellent value for money and I would definately recommend and stay here again.
