Overpowering, super flowery air freshener upon entry. Treadmill broken. Ants in the room. Lighting very dim and depressing along with bathroom mirror light not working. Shower was fully open with a cloth shower curtain that blows inward while showering. Just drab and unattractive.

Doesn’t smell great

The hotel spells like a hospital. I’m not sure what cleaning products are being used, but I was uncomfortable both nights because of the smell. It would be better if the cleaning products were changed.

Joanna and Esther at the front desk were very gracious and helped make our stay with two cats very pleasant. It was a tough time for us because we were near one of the LA fires, so we took off as a precaution, and the hospitality here was great! Joanna was incredibly welcoming and informative. If there was a Joanna at every front desk, every place would have five stars!

Good for the price

For the price, they seem to be doing the best they can. The front desk and cleaning crew were very kind and helpful. The rooms are old but seem cleaned up fine. My first room smelled very strongly of dog and parts were literally falling apart. For example the kitchen drawer was broken and hanging at a crazy angle. The tile was cracked and floor so degraded it was hard to clean. However I was put in a better room which only had a rusty light and some wear. - rather than being outright broken. The towels were fluffy and felt new. The bed was very comfortable and bedding was soft. It was quiet after everyone had settled down at midnight and I had a great night sleep. The gym looked nice.

The staff at the reception was unfriendly throughout our stay. The halls were dirty, unvacuumed. No cleaning service for the rooms. Took out my own trash. There was a $7 parking fee / night( surprise!) which was not mentioned in expedia. The reason for the parking fee was that security from HOAG was surveying the parking lot. Did not see any security going around in the area during my stay. Bathrooms were old. Need upgrade. I dont think I will be staying in this property next time I visit that area!

It was a decent place. A little run down and older in the rooms. They are suites that people live in so the chair was peeling and the side table was rusty and beat up. In general it was fine for the night but I'm sure there was better options.
