Reviews and Ratings
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were top-notch, the service was excellent, and the location was perfect. However, the dining options left something to be desired. The facilities were great, though.
I had a great stay at this hotel, especially with the amazing facilities it offers. The rooms on the upper three floors were spacious and modern, with great amenities, making for a comfortable experience. The service from the staff was top-notch, always friendly and accommodating. While the location wasn't a priority for me as I had a car, I found it convenient and well-served by public transport. The dining experience was pleasant, with good selections, and I enjoyed the tandoori dishes. Overall, a wonderful stay worth the value due to the great facilities and friendly staff.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms on floors 10-12 were spacious and modern with all the amenities I needed, and the beautiful view was just the icing on the cake. The service was top-notch with friendly staff who provided excellent service. The location in downtown LA was ideal, close to multiple types of public transport and within walking distance to downtown attractions. The dining experience included good hearty selections, and the facilities were outstanding. The only downside was the slightly higher price, but the value for money was still there.
