i appreciated the convenient location near the highway. griffith observatory was a short 15-minute drive. free parking was available and the surroundings felt safe, a plus.

the towels felt small and quite thin. there were no bedside reading lamps, made reading in bed difficult. i also noticed no bar in the shower to hold for support.
