Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
The property is understaffed and not secure. No one greets you in front of the hotel and rarely inside of it. On the second day of my 4-day stay, my humble request for fresh towels was never fulfilled. The few people working in the hotel are sincere and thoughtful but overextended and overwhelmed. This was my second stay. I will go back to the Chateau or Sunset Tower where the service is reliable.

Good location but hidden fees

My parents stayed here after losing their house in the Palisades fire because it was recommended by friends. The place is a bit dated and had a $500 hidden resort fee not mentioned until checkout. But the location and cookies were great.

LA Charmer!

Most amazing stay! Luis is an incredible manager - every accommodation was made for us while we held meetings. We only stayed one night but will definitely become home away from home on all our trips to LA. Great little kitchen, and the place has such a great style about it - the lobby, the outside areas...
