Disliked: Room comfort

Bare necessities

The location was convenient, and quiet at night. The room was minimally furnished, with thin linens and a lightweight bedcovering. The pillows were like bricks. The bathroom towels were super thin, but adequate. The dark brown carpet doesn't help the decor. No coffee in the room, so you need $1 bills to purchase coffee from a vending machine for $2 each. It was watery coffee. The motel reminded me of the old Motel 6 without the vibrating bed for $.25.

Property is clean but dated for sure. Air conditioner is super loud and there is a beeping noise the 2 nights we were there. Sounded like a smoke detector or fire alarm malfunction, reported it but nothing was resolved. It is in a quiet area but not close to any convenience or restaurant.

Nice older property with only a pool as an amenity. Unfortunately the guy working the front desk on Wednesday in the morning was a jerk with no guest relation skills- more of a security guard with a bad attitude. The other staff we encountered were nice and helpful.

Was only staying the night after a wedding, so I can't really speak to the amenities, but it looked nice and I saw people enjoying the pool in the morning. Check in/out was super simple. The front desk is staffed 24/7 which is great, since I wasn't able to check in until 1 in the morning. Parking is a bit sketchy, as the spaces are limited, but there was some street parking nearby (which is limited to 2hrs between 8AM - 6PM so be warned). Considering the location, this is a very affordable and safe, clean, and functional option if you're just looking for a bed and a shower. I did notice there were fairly large minifridges in the rooms, which is a nice bonus.

Front desk was so helpful, parking was free but spots were a little tight. (Mainly because people were parking their big a** cars in small spaces) Room was perfect for one night! Love the fridge & little kitchenette. Beds were comfy and zero hassle checking out. Overall a great price & great stay!!!

This is a smaller family-owned like property that is driving distance to most places in metro LA. It’s no frills but provides the basics for a safe , comfortable 1-3 night stay. Parking is INCLUDED! Rooms were nicely sized and clean. My only criticism is the ceiling lights are too bright ( florescent like ) and there is a need for a desk/night stand light.

I have stayed at the Dunes Inn Wilshire many times through the years. I simply love the vintage design and overall "vibe"! Unlike other hotels and motels from the 1960s (?), the owners of the Dunes Inn Wilshire have a respect and appreciation for the "old"--and the wisdom not to have remodeled it, which would have made it just like every other hotel, taking away its uniqueness and vintage charm. Bravo to the owners of this hotel for NOT doing that!

The place was incredibly clean and I really mean it. Love the outside designated smoking areas that made it easy and appropriate. Traffic noise from the street was a bit loud, but tolerable. It’s a great value. I definitely stay here again, as I was on a quick business trip and all I really needed was a pillow and some blankets and tv & a nice bath area.
