Top California State University Hotel Reviews

Hyatt House LA - University Medical Center

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean! Bathroom was clean. Breakfast was only good one the first day we were there (sausage and potatoes were the best). The second day - not so great. Also, requested additional towels from front desk and was told housekeeping would bring it up, but after an hour of waiting, we were told to come down and grab them - inconvenient and should've just told us the first time if we called to request. Overall, great location with amazing Mexican food in the area. Front staff never really greeted us much."

Lincoln Hotel Monterey Park Los Angeles

10/10 Excellent

"价格合适，位置吃喝方便，停车位充足且划算，卫生很好，床垫舒适，都很好，每次去洛杉矶都住这里，但昨天晚上停车场里光顾我老破车的人忘记关掉车内阅读灯了，不然我也发现不了，但很感谢您的开锁技术，没有选择敲玻璃，也很抱歉，车内只有半包抽纸巾"

Fountain Inn Motel - Alhambra, Los Angeles

8/10 Good

"Room was clean, spacious, and looked recently remodeled. Would definitely stay here again. comments/notes: - parking can be tricky/tight, especially with larger vehicle. Small motel parking but secure - street parking also seemed ok (not sketchy) - there’s no closet or any type of clothing rack or hanger (no where to hang stuff other than two small hooks in bathroom. - microwave is outside in between ATM and soda machine (NO individual microwave in rooms) - $40 cash refundable deposit (must be cash - ATM on site, if needed. You get the $40 back at check out) - Only get one key - neighborhood seemed safe/secure. No unhoused individuals hanging around in the area - easy freeway on/off - grocery store about 5 min away"
