The hotel is situated on bustling Sunset Blvd, offering a clean and neat stay despite the aging rooms. The service was exceptional, providing detailed tips and even folding forgotten items. While the location is fantastic for exploring Hollywood and beyond, some improvements in security could enhance the experience. The dining options, even with fish dishes, were enjoyable, and the facilities met expectations.

The hotel is conveniently located right on Sunset and close to the 101, making it easy to get to all the sightseeing spots. The rooms are comfortable and clean, though they could use more lighting. The service at the Dream Cafe is excellent, with friendly and efficient staff. The location is fantastic for exploring central LA attractions, but be aware of the presence of shady individuals nearby. The dining experience is limited due to the on-premises restaurant being closed, but there are off-site options available. Overall, the hotel offers good value for money with its great location and friendly service.

My stay at the hotel was nice for the price. The room was super clean and had a very comfortable bed, but it was not very spacious for two persons, especially with 23kg luggage. The location was great, right on Sunset and close to the 101 cut off, making it easy to come and go. The service was extremely friendly and helpful, with special thanks to John for his Thanksgiving dinner recommendations. The dining options were good, although the onsite restaurant was closed. Overall, a comfortable and clean stay with friendly staff.

The hotel is conveniently located, close to Hollywood and Koreatown, making it easy to explore various attractions. The rooms are comfortable, although lacking a nice view. The service is a mix of very nice and pleasant, with some room for improvement in a few areas. The location is great for accessing nearby amenities and popular destinations. The dining experience is not fully available on-site, which is a downside.

The hotel room was reasonably big and clean, with everything we needed, though a bit small for two people. The staff, especially John, was friendly and helpful, even assisting us with finding a restaurant for Thanksgiving. The location is convenient to Hollywood attractions, but the area felt somewhat unsafe at night. The dining experience was good, though not discounted for guests, and the set price for breakfast was fair. The hotel is situated on the famous Sunset Blvd and offers facilities like housekeeping services and tours/ticket assistance.
