This hotel is a gem! It's located close to Hollywood, the subway, and various events. The rooms are spacious, modern, and come with a little kitchenette.

The facilities are top-notch, making the stay truly enjoyable.
The hotel is ideally situated on Hollywood Boulevard, close to the airport bus, metro, and vibrant clubs, offering convenience and a buzzing atmosphere. The rooms are well-equipped with a handy kitchenette in the bedroom. However, the service stumbled in finding our reservation without checking the system and lacked some assistance options. Dining options were satisfying, especially with fresh salmon available, and the facilities were sufficient for a comfortable stay.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The private kitchen in the room was amazing, and facing Hollywood Blvd added a special touch. The bath and kitchen were convenient, and having a private bathroom was a big plus. The only downside was the service hiccup and the lack of willingness to assist with our reservation, but the laundry and tours/ticket assistance were helpful.
