The property isn't in the best part of Hollywood but the gates make it feel safe. Its walking distance to the main attraction in Hollywood so that was nice. It was really hot in my room and maybe I didnt know how to use the unit that was in my room but it didnt seem like there was AC. The vibes are awesome, I loved that they have social events for guests, we had a wine tasting and a Pizza happy hour but it was later in the evening. I would stay here again.
