8.2/10 Very good! (1,006 reviews)
Convenient location, I got a discounted price. I asked and was given a courtesy late checkout time by 30 minutes. Comfortable bed. Fancy toilet with many buttons for washing one's undersides. But it was a really hot day and there was no way to turn off the heated toilet seat. Shower head was good. There are cheaper public parking garages on Beverly Blvd and Wilshire Blvd one block away. Best of all is Chaumont Bakery, only 5 mins. walk away on Beverly Blvd, a great place for brunch. Order the almond croissant and mushroom omelet, they are divine.

Room was clean - very small for the price. The shower is literally part of the bedroom with clear glass where your roommate and people outside (if the blinds are open) get a good show. The beach view was excellent FROM THE SHOWER so paying extra for that seemed a waste. Staff was great - valet parking great and very needed in the area.
