Well it's not spotless, but clean enough. Staff are polite, but service is ok. Free basic breakfast in the morning. Parking is free, about 25min walk to universal studios. Uber ride is around 6buck(non busy hour). Few nice restaurants nearby and a Walgreens.

Everyone’s keys stopped working half way through our stay and instead of simply replacing or apologizing for the inconvenience, we were all lectured about where we must have placed our cards in our pockets or wallets (the place you would put a hotel key)… it was very awkward.

It's an OK property, not much else. First room we were given the bedding was damp and room smelt foisty, but we were moved to another room which was OK. The rooms are tired and dark, though I'm sure this is being advertised as just being refurbed? We only stayed 2 nights and that was enough. Would I recommend? Not really.
