    • Location is perfect everything walking distance to the famous cool museums of Hollywood Blvd.If you look for a great price and big spacious stay, this is the place accommodations of living room and a kitchen is nice. practically like an apartment VS hotel
    • Incredible staff and overall incredible stay! Friendly beyond belief, clean, and who gives free stuff these days (snacks, ice cream, soda...)?! Blown away by the first class experience.
    • Customer service was stellar.

    Cons -

    • yes there is quiet a humidity smell in the hotel room and funny smell on the outside hallway. also the hotel needs little interior improvement as well the bathroom
    • Room could use a deep cleaning and new paint but it wasn't gross.
    • There wasn't saying I didn't like

    Amazing service. Great breakfast. Huge room. The location is fantastic and the staff are incredibly nice and helpful. I can't recommend this place enough!

    The bathroom fan didn't work and the window wouldn't stay open.

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 7-28-2016

    The staff was super friendly and helpful. The room was very clean, I was very happy with my stay.

    10GilbertPosted on: 2-8-2026

    This place is AMAZING! Especially for families with kids. Free snacks, breakfast, laundry, popsicle hotline, coffee machine (espresso drinks!), soft serve machine. They even have a magician that comes a few times a week. This was the coolest hotel we’ve ever stayed at. Kevin, the front desk manager, was the absolute best! So kind and accommodating!

    10KevinPosted on: 1-29-2026

    The staff were absolute superstars. The complementary Breakfast, Drinks, Snacks, ice cream,roaming magician and free laundry services were phenomenal. Watching the excitement of the kids in the 24hr heated pool order popsicles on the phone was so fun to watch. The location was excellent and we were lucky enough to dine at the magic castle and experience the incredible talent, shows and food. This property itself isn’t the fanciest hotel I’ve stayed in but the bed was super comfortable ( I like it super soft ) and the facilities and staff definitely made it the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

    Although It didn’t bother us, the property doesn’t have an elevator so if you struggle with stairs it might be an idea to ask for a room on the bottom floor.

    9KristinePosted on: 1-27-2026

    The complimentary services, especially the ones for the kids and the staff, especially Kevin were exceptional

    The one and only negative i could put was no elevator but because everything else was so great it just didn't matter!!! So we essentially have no negatives at all

    10MelissaPosted on: 1-24-2026

    From the moment we arrived and were given champagne, it was a magical stay in a wonderful place with staff that were extremely attentive and wonderful. The kids loved the snacks and the popsicle phone.

    This hotel was incredible. Some of the best customer service we have EVER experienced. Some of the top reasons; We were greeted with champagne and sparkling cider depending on age upon arrivalThey have a complimentary laundry service and your laundry comes back in a cute little paper package with dried lavender on topThe popsicle hotline was our kiddos favorite along with the frozen yogurt Cartoons and movie night was a blastKevin and Breanna at the front desk were incredible hosts who ensured every need was met!!!! Thank you Kevin and Breanna for going out of your way to ensure our family had anything we might need!!!!

    We loved the retro style of the hotel but some might not.

    9EllynPosted on: 1-6-2026

    Location is wonderful especially if you will be going to the Magic Castle for the showsThe staff were all 10+ in their service and personalities.

    There are a lot of stairs. If this is an issue make sure to mention it when booking.

    10JolinPosted on: 1-1-2026

    The staff was amazing and rewarded us to a 5 star experience. I have not had this service at 3x the price. The extras (mini bar etc) were very reasonably priced.

    3RosalindPosted on: 11-22-2025

    Received a full refund

    Left after one night..room was terrible with door access being broken or kicked in..rooms need a major upgrade. Bed was uneven, to the point you felt like you were falling off it..lamp faulty, broken chair, mould on the roof of bathroom..so very disappointed as this was our second stay. They really need to do a major upgrade. Moved to a second room which was crying out for a deep clean and renovation. Breakfast was disappointing compared to 6 years ago.

    10ShelleyPosted on: 11-22-2025

    Super helpful and friendly staff! Great location.

    A little noisy and rooms need a little update.

    9BridgetPosted on: 11-12-2025

    The pool and breakfast and snacks and staff were all top notch! Loved the free laundry facilities - very helpful for families travelling

    The rooms were a little tired but that’s to be expected. Not much to dislike!

    9TamaraPosted on: 10-26-2025

    Fantastic staff who were so accommodating. Service, snacks and location were amazing.

    The rooms were clean but dated. Some dust on the floors but very reasonable and spacious, given the location.

    9CassandraPosted on: 10-22-2025

    The property was just amazing for families. The kids thought it was the best, the staff especially Kevin were awesome and let’s say the laundry service was the icing on the cake for this travelling mum

    Everything was fine, the room was a little out dated and the was limited lighting in the room, it was no problem though.

    9LanaPosted on: 10-13-2025

    What a great little quirky hotel. Kids loved the popsicle hotline and complimentary snacks and ice cream.

    The beds were not overly comfortable.

    10NicolaPosted on: 8-21-2025

    Friendly, welcoming and helpful staff. Nothing was too complicated and they were always there to help!

    There are stairs so if you have mobility issues make sure you ask for a ground floor lodging
