Welcoming, very clean and comfortable...

Liked: Super comfortable bed and pillows. Very clean. Well kept and equipped gym with modern equipment. Nice and quiet.
Disliked: It would be nice to have an offering of fruit and/or yoghurt with the breakfast items. Not much of a vibe or personality about the place generally but it is nice and smart.

Problematic

Liked: Locations near family, breakfast is pretty awful, except coffee is good.
Disliked: Parking is a real,pain to get into lot. Noise from room above is huge problem, i was kept up almost 2 hours listening to someone walking around.

Disappointing

Liked: Clean, pretty hotel
Disliked: Hidden fees

my home away from home

Liked: no breakfast but there are about 5 amazing places just down the street like veez or tartine. go out and explore!
Disliked: cindy the front desk manager was the rudest person i've ever experienced in 35 years of hospitality. i hope the owners reprimand her severely for what she did. or simply promote the amazing nancy to be her boss, or just fire her.

Very good

It was a good hotel...

Liked: The lovatipn for oir needs were great.

Superb

Pretty hotel in what may...

Liked: Beautiful decor/new design throughout. Lovely courtyard. Parking was fairly convenient, though I had not remember that there would be a charge for it, or that they would charge 15$ a day for an obligatory facilities payment. If that's the case, why isn't it incorporated into the room price? Though there's very little in the neighborhood, it's convenient for LAX and for some other parts of the city. The area, and the hotel, are apparently trying to bill themselves as part of a trendy, revived neighborhood. It's not that all revived yet.
Disliked: Bed and pillows were sort of lumpy. Clearly new, but not the best quality. Sort of pseudo luxurious. The breakfast, which is covered by a required extra $15 per day facilities charge, was quite disappointing: instant oatmeal that was a sugar bomb, with hot water not hot enough to cook it; not very good donuts. That's it! And it was completely self serve. I'd rather not be charged that fee and go elsewhere. Honestly, I'd not expected it, and we only tried because we were charged that fee. Staff was courteous but not that all friendly. Seemed a bit overpriced overall for what we got, and I'm sure that it's design and newness has contributed to somewhat inflated ratings.
