A beautiful hotel with Wonderful and friendly people. Parking is around back & $18 a day. The hotel parking is shared with the restaurant parking so it can be a little tricky to find a spot late at night but we managed to snag one. The rooms are small but extremely clean. You can see the Hollywood sign from the window of the rooms Very small, old school 3 person elevator and nice old Hollywood charm. The area is very busy and loud (no fault of the hotel) just something to note. Car horns, loud crowds on the street all night ( I stayed on Halloween night though) I really enjoyed my stay here. The beds are super comfortable and the bar/ restaurant seemed so fun! Will definitely check it out next time I stay. Highly recommend for simple, no frills place to stay. *Something of note is there are no microwaves in the room, just a mini fridge*

The room had old Hollywood charm, was very clean, and the A/C unit in the window was actually ideal for keeping the room cool and blocking out traffic noise outside. Being right down the street from Paramount Studios, it was fun to walk down there and take some photos. Close drive to Universal Studios, which is why were staying there. Lobby is beautifully detailed and elegant, hearkening back to classic Hollywood. The little bakery/cafe right next door was perfect to grab a simple breakfast before heading to Universal Studios. Each floor is decorated with historic pictures of classic Hollywood actors/actresses and different areas of LA at various times in the past. The only advice I would share is for the bathroom in the room; being a historic building, there was no fan in there so we went and bought some Febreeze spray to have on hand for when the restroom was in use for a lengthy period of time, if you catch my drift. There is only a shower, as well, so no bathtub for those who like to soak. Overall, I would definitely stay here again! The staff was very professional and accommodating. We didn't try the restaurant downstairs, as we had other plans, but it always seemed busy. I really like this hotel! Parking is $18 a night, and they make sure there are spaces reserved for hotel guests in the gated lot even when the bakery and restaurant are busy.

The hotel is very nice and was conveniently located for our needs. It’s close to Griffith, walk of fame and the Hollywood sign (which we could see from our room window, 224) The restaurant was nice and stayed open late. Parking was also nice. It was a really enjoyable stay.

The staff was very kind and help to accommodate my needs. The hotel is minimally furnished but comfortable and convenient. The building is very historic, and I enjoyed looking at all the old Hollywood photos on the wall. The best part of it is their overnight parking - can't beat it! I will stay again!
