The unusually large one-bedroom suite at Highland Gardens Hotel is a very good value at a convenient location -- just a block and a half from all the popular sights and activities along Hollywood Boulevard. Overall, the room was clean and nicely decorated with reasonably new furniture and appliances. The kitchen was fully equipped for cooking (pots, pans, plates &... More

This is a dirty little hotel with guetto cleaning ladies that are laughing an talking loud first thing in the morning. The tv was as big as a portable radio and just about everything in the room was broken in some way. No hair dryer, ice, or wet bar. The breakfast is never there on time and is cold. The... More

Having read some of the positive reviews, it's obvious that the quality of this hotel varies drastically room to room. We, unfortunately, got a terrible one. The headboards on both beds were leaning in and looked as though they'd fall on top of us. The table and chairs were in the same shabby/wobbly condition. The carpet was dingy and puckered... More

Love this place. I think this is going to be my go-to hotel in LA from now on. It's in a good central location and the staff was friendly. This place has a younger clientele from what I saw so I'm sure it gets louder on the weekends. Things were perfectly great for us on a Monday however. I'm not... More

I picked this hotel by reading the review on tripadvisor. Only rated a few stars, but the reviews were good and the price was right. A single mom with 4 children , the area seemed safe before the 9pm hour. The suite was very clean, but had a slight "old" odor as it is very vintage. Ran into a few... More

My friend and I had used TripAdvisor before booking our stay here, thinking that the bad reviews were from people who had over reacted. Well, the reviews were true. Yes, it is in a good location for tourist spots, and yes the parking is free. But the positives end there. The room was falling apart. The carpet might not have... More

I usually rarely complain much about hotel rooms, but this place really took the price. When we came to check in the front desk guy reminded us that we would be getting the "not yet remodeled room", and claimed we already had been notified about that. No where did we see this mentioned when we booked the hotel room or... More

This is an older property probably built in the 60's. If you are looking for luxury this is not the place. The rooms are dated and the bathrooms small but the room was clean. The location is great if you are planning activities around Hollywood Blvd. The young man at the front desk was very helpful with directions and recommendations... More

I had only expected to spend one night here, in a ground floor room. This room was fine however after a single night I decieded it was o.k. to perhaps book the rest of my stay here. I got room 221 from May 6th to the 17th, a two bedroom suite. The room was painted all white which made it... More
