I stayed for 2 nights at this hotel in November/2011 and just had a very nice experience there! The room is spacious, nice bathroom with a good bath and really good amenities.

The location is unbeatable for access to Japan town. There is a walkway to the shopping center with Kinokuniya which is supposed to close at 7, and the front entrance is not much farther. We did have three issues which marred the experience. First, they charge $24 a day for parking, but their website where we made the reservation stated... More

Thank you for choosing our hotel for your recent Los Angeles visit. I wanted to thank you for bringing attention to the three issues you unfortunately experienced as our guest. Downtown parking can be expensive, though our current rates of $24.00 for self-parking, and $30.00 for valet parking, are lower than surrounding hotels. There are different packages we extend to...

Great hotel, very nice beds and rooms. We paid a great price but they make it up in other ways. $24 a day for parking seemed high for someone staying in your hotel but the convenience factor out weighed the issue. Either Bookit.com made a mistake or the hotel but they would not honor a $50 dining credit voucher that... More

Thank you for sharing your observations during your recent stay at our property. I can understand how parking can be expensive downtown. After doing research of parking rates with our competitors, we do offer rates significantly lower than hotels in our area. We offer in and out parking access for guests in our garage, as well as secure parking, with... More

We stayed for 5 nights while our son underwent surgery at USC Keck Medical Center. The staff was very professional and friendly. The hotel offers complimentary shuttle service to and from the hospital. This was a huge selling point for us. The drivers were extremely kind and courteous. We can't say enough good things about the drivers. They also double... More

I loved this hotel. The room was well styled and the bed was extremely comfortable. I actually wanted to spend time in my room. Best of all was the service. Everyone I met was courteous and helpful. I felt welcomed and appreciated. The gardens were beautiful, hard to beleive we were in downtown. Look forward to staying again More

You know what they say about first impressions... Once you have walked into this hotel and seen the lobby, you have seen the best and only thing this hotel has to offer. It goes downhill from there. The rooms and meetings rooms are old and tired. The front desk was understaffed, as was the evening restaurant and bar service. Breakfast... More
