We liked the cleanliness, but the toilet gave us issue and the shower being backward was weird and the water pressure was low. No crib being available and the pool being closed the entire stay was inconvenient.

The room was ok at best, the plugs attached to the nightstand were falling out the wall or would practically be hanging out of said wall. The furniture was definitely well worn, and the bed was pretty uncomfortable, felt like I was sleeping on a curved arch, not a very fun experience. Also there is nothing slowing all the doors from shutting so constant loud door slams are the norm when you’re trying to sleep. The building is just really well worn and definitely could use a SERIOUS face lift. But it was like I said, ok at best. The staff however was amazing and is the only reason my review is at 3 stars. They we phenomenal

Unfortunately the property is not well kept. The lobby looks great but then when we headed up to our room on the 4th floor, as soon as I got off the elevator they had a very strong scented air freshener. I wondered why, when I got into my room, the smell of the moisture in the room was evident. The bathroom did not have a vent and so the steam of showers just lingers in the room and the sheets smelled funny too. I had taken some documents with me and when I picked them up the next day, the documents felt flimsy like the paper had soaked up the moisture in the room. I only stayed two days and for the most part we were not in the room too much but I honestly did not want to be there. The bathroom wasn't very clean when we got there and due to the moisture issue, things were rusting a bit, like the towel holders and the shower door. The last day as I was packing and picking up, I realized that it looked like they had not vacuumed that room in quite a while, there were pieces of old chips, nail clippings, and pieces of old candy. I have to head to LA once a month and I've stayed in quite a few hotels but unfortunately, I will not be staying in this one again.
