Studio City accommodation from AU$191

Clean room and bathroom, quiet environment, very limited parking

The room was clean, bathroom was clean, the staff is friendly, bar is nice to have if you don’t wanna go out. Been staying here since 2019 and never had any issues at all. I recommend this hotel.

This is my favorite place to stay in Los Angeles. The staff is excellent, and I always feel like they take good care of all of their guests. The Freehand is a beautiful historical building with a unique vibe. It’s a busy place that somehow still maintains a comfortable feeling. I always feel more “at home” here than at most other hotels. The lobby feels like a place you would want to hang out in, as opposed to a “what’s-next-on-the-list” waiting spot. I’ve never been to the restaurant inside the hotel but I’ve been to the Broken Shaker and it’s a good time. Recommend a first cocktail there because they are tasty and pretty potent! Golden Gopher is across the street. Awesome bar and the oldest in LA! Around the corner is a great coffee spot called Andante. Definitely check it out. Also recommend self parking, instead of valet. The garage attached to the building charges $35 a day with an entry on Olive Street. No ins/outs but no one wants to spend their time driving when they’re visiting LA anyways!
