Top California State University Hotel Reviews

Alhambra Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I'm giving this place 5 stars because even though it wasn't perfect, I really enjoyed my stay here. I chose it randomly to attend an event at the Rose Bowl. The front desk staff was amazing. They were always so friendly and funny...I wanted to keep them as friends. Lobby and rooms were super clean. My only complaint was the shampoo and soap dispensers in the bathroom were empty. I brought my own so I was ok but that was definitely a housekeeping issue."

The Westin Bonaventure Hotel and Suites, Los Angeles

8/10 Good

"Despite being an old building, the service, amenities, and cleaniness are still up to par and well maintained."

Lincoln Park Motel

10/10 Excellent

"100% recommend"

Historic City view Suites

10/10 Excellent

"It was very well kept and neat. However it doesn’t have AC this is usually not a problem in California. It just happened to be a heatwave other than that it was a great stay!"

Modern Townhomes Minutes from Downtown LA

8/10 Good

"The place was great but I think that you should have TV’s is in every bedrooms. The floor plan wasn’t to my liking because I am a disabled person and I can’t walk up all those stairs. I feel like the living room and kitchen should have downstairs also the parking is horrible. But overall the stay was good"
