"This was my first time staying here and if the prices were more reasonable we would stay here all the time if we go to universal studios. Only thing I didn’t like was the shower water pressure. Bed and pillows were lovely and comfortable."

Hotel Burbank

10/10 Excellent
"Staff was very attentive, it was at a very convenient place to be able to do multiple things in north LA for the weekend. Unfortunately it was inconvenient that 2 of the elevators were down (1 near the lobby and the main one in the parking) It's not the most fancy hotel, but it was worth the price we paid. The Cafe had a solid selection of breakfast, price was also nothing crazy, plus it being right there made it worth it. Another positive is the location is also near the Burbank Town Center, which is a pretty sizable mall, that you could even walk to if your up for it. I can say I would plan to stay here again if I were to be planning my trip for north LA/Burbank/Hollywood"
