8/10 Good
"I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The building is beautiful and has a lot of character, and the central location makes it convenient for exploring Los Angeles. My room was one of the highlights. It was spacious, clean, nicely decorated, and very quiet. There was a separate sitting area with a couch and chair in addition to the sleeping area, and the bathroom was also quite large. The bed was extremely comfortable, which made for a very pleasant stay. The staff were friendly, professional, and helpful. I did have a few issues with my room when I arrived, but they were addressed and repaired quickly, and I was compensated for the inconvenience, which I appreciated. There are a couple of things worth mentioning about the location. There are a lot of unhoused individuals in the surrounding area, and I did not feel particularly comfortable walking around outside after dark. I would recommend being mindful of this if you plan to walk around the neighborhood in the evening. I did not eat at the hotel, but I did have one glass of wine at the bar. At $25 for a glass, I felt it was quite expensive for what was served, particularly with an automatic 20% gratuity added to the bill. Overall, I really liked the hotel itself. The historic character, spacious and comfortable rooms, quiet atmosphere, and excellent staff were all positives. The surrounding area is the main drawback for me, particularly after dark. Despite that, I would stay here again."

"This hotel when I first got there, the valet guy greeted me so well, then the staff in the front desk is very kind, offered water since I was coming in from the heat.. As soon as I got to the room. OMG!! Our room smelled really good, like strawberries or a scent of cherry, the room was spotless clean and restroom was beautiful, it gave me an aesthetic, chic, fashion look.. omg! I slept like a baby and to wake up and go down stairs for breakfast, the best!! Will definitely recommend this hotel to everyone and I will definitely come back also, my new favorite in Downtown LA.. oh yeah it also has a bar and there’s bars around the area walking distance, around the block there’s a great hookah place and a big 3 floor club that’s called Mayan.. this hotel is very well situated, love it so far."
