Hollywood Hills Hotel

The room was very spacious with a great view of the hills, but the primary reason we booked here was for the pool which was closed off for construction which wasn’t mentioned in the description. Would stay again once the pool is fixed up!

I will definitely not be bothering booking here again. It was too complicated. There was nobody to really help you. If you had a question and it was way too expensive for no service.Basically, deposit two fifty.Come on, it's crazy.It's not my best choice. But maybe for like last minute, you don't have nowhere else. To go for sure book it

Our experience was disappointing. The location of the hotel was good, but there was not enough parking available. The room was not clean when we arrived. We booked the room for two people, yet only one towel was provided and there was only about a quarter roll of toilet paper left. In addition, the bed was very noisy whenever we moved, and there were several broken items in the room. We expected a much better level of cleanliness, maintenance, and attention to detail.

Mirror was broken and it was difficult to locate the hotel because they looked like apartments. Hard beds too.

Not great for walking. Roads need lighting and walking path. Gate needs walking entrance.

The outside of the hotel from the parking area isn’t much to look at but the rooms are clean and modern. Ours had a lovely kitchenette with nice countertops. The floor was kind of dirty/greasy feeling throughout our room. It’s weird that there is no front desk but texting them through the text where you get the link to the key QR code was quite convenient and they responded quickly. We stayed 1 night and wished we could have used the pool. One night was enough.

Secluded, great view, convenient and comfortable

Great place to stay, very beautiful

the check-in link did not work for me so my reservation had to be canceled while I'm sitting in the parking lot of the hotel. no one is on the property to help you and there is no other way to check in.

Views

The staff was quick responding First Room: been was very uncomfortable and had a dip in the middle Second Room: bathtub was dirty, requested to be cleaned, it was cleaned but then at night after returning to the room we found the bathtub fill with dirty water and the room flooded Issue is a bad plumbing Some of my personal stuff was completely wet

Balcony View Solitude Quiet Kitchenette Smart TV Live plants Private entrance Large room No ice Hard to find Shower Zero art on walls

Love the scenery.

Stairs

It was nice inside but parking is horrible. Also, not being able to speak to anyone is horrible too! No one on sight to help with anything, not even parking.

not clean, cold upon arrival- difficult to work heat- took long time to work. View amazing, not your standard hotel. No one available to assist in person, on site. No ice machine, isolated.

Location of the property was bad, some of the lights in the room didn’t work, the knob to the shower came off a couple of times.

This hotel was not what they showed in the pictures. They share the property with a Japanese restaurant and show pics of the restaurant. The outside of the property is run down looking . The pool is unusable . I ended up complaining and cutting my trip short would not recommend this place

I specifically booked this room because on the listing it said that it included a king bed and a twin bed and when I got there, it was just a king bed. I tried reaching out to the phone number. They provided to discuss this matter, but they told me that it’s not even their listing and that’s the room I booked. They didn’t offer any accommodations for a family of two adults and two kids so we all had to sleep in that one bed. I’m not sure how they are conducting business here, but I’m pretty sure that’s false advertisement.

view was so nice and everything was straight forward and easy access.

No elevator. Difficult terrain.

Room very clean, staff not very present, pool is fun. Nice being my restraunt

The photos of this property are VERY misleading. You assume that you have booked a relaxing stay in Hollywood Hills that has Japanese inspiration and that is not at all the case. If I knew the property was basically an AirBnB I would have selected another property. Upon arrival it was hard to reach someone, I paid to park in an area that wasn't exactly secure. The first night I had to physically push the gate open to access parking. When communicating via text the person answering my questions got a bit snippy with me. Then to see the rooms were stacked like dorm rooms, my neighbor was someone who lived on property and there were several of those. The stairwell was covered in cob webs and felt very unstable when walking. Upon entering the room it was okay but not the best. I had to leave and purchase bug spray as there were several cob webs in the actual room. I woke up in the middle of the night one night to a huge spider near my toothbrush. There was no concierge or room service yet I came home from the beach and two women were attempting to access my room. They stated they were housekeeping but had not visited the previous two days. My last night there I planned to relax on the balcony but rats yes plural two rats were running back and forth for almost an hour. I absolutely should have left the day I arrived it was not a lux stay at all. Oh and the code to the pool never worked at any point extremely disappointed and not worth it whatsoever.

Very spacious and private. beautiful view the shower wasn’t the best. the tub nob was broken and the water pressure wasn’t great.

Seems the parking spots were for every other room except ours! We had to park below in the hotel guest spots and walk up a hill. Room refresh (housekeeping) is every three days, did not know this and had to request clean towels, late at night, for the next day, they were able to get to us, so make sure you save your towels!! And make sure you request more coffee pods. We only had two, and I can only assume that was supposed to last for three days! Air conditioning unit was right above the bed. I had to sleep in opposite direction (head at the foot of the bed) because it was cold air blowing, and you will need the AC!!! Never saw the pool, not really sure how to get to it. Again, the pictures online look very nice!!! I do have to say, the only way to communicate with them was texting, and they were pretty quick to respond, except when we texted that we were checking out…never heard back. Overall, it was nice and if we go back, I will get the city view.

Small size tv and slow responding Roku.

The location was unique with beautiful views, the room was large, comfortable bed. Very nice kitchen area. no outlet in the bathroom, lots of stairs to access room.

Good views, was pretty confusing navigating for the first time given that there wasn’t onsite staff.

Beautiful room, great view Nothing had a great stay

Rooms are nice…location is hard to find …parking is bunch in with no direction…no staff on sight just a number to text…pics of room are very deceiving and if I knew it was like this l would have went somewhere else

The room was clean and a beautiful view but parking was a little confusing and there was no pool. The place was a little dumpy and could use a little TLC, though that is cosmetic and not a reflection of the comfort of the room. I had expected a little more.

The location and the view The stairs to walk to the room

The room was clean and spacious. Lacked kitchen amenities that would have helped, toaster, bowls, cooking utensils. The counter top cooktop wasn't working but had a hotplate instead which was fine. We asked for a bed sheet change that didn't happen but we did get refunded one night of parking. The clean sheets were then left for us to change ourselves.

this is a self service apt, not a hotel at all, no staffs on site. when i arrived, the HAVC was bro, they have to order a portable heater, electric power outlet jumps, most of the outlets have no powers. never book direct from them, they charged much higer price by putting fake advertising 15%off. the view is nice, but it is old,

Room barren, no amenities, television internet awful. Guest support limited to text messaging and was greatly disappointed by the whole experience.

It was quite difficult to find the entrance when we first arrived and everyone we asked was going is wrong directions. The entrance is a gate located right next to the Yamashiro restaurant valet parking. Also our television never worked and they never did anything about it. Also there was a plumbing issue in our tub that it took me complaining for 2 days for them to come fix and clean the tub. Also there’s no front desk which admittedly I just don’t realize when I booked but has I known before, I wouldn’t have booked here

Close to Runyon Canyon, so good hiking nearby. My room was literally 10 feet away from an entrance to a hookah bar. Just when I wanted to go to sleep, people kept coming and going up and down hotel stairs to enter this venue. Music was incredibly loud and continued till 3am. I couldn't sleep. Had to use ear plugs and noise cancelling headphones on top of them and still couldn't fall asleep till it got a bit more quiet. Terrible experience - had no idea my bedroom will be right next to a club! in the early morning leave blowers started walking around the property as well. suffice to say I didn't sleep.

Amazing room with a great view

The hotel had a nice view! Clean, smelled fresh , staff responds very rapidly. Only issue was limited parking spots. The shower has good water pressure. Soaps smell nice and have a matching lotion to them. The yamashiro restaurant was nice as well and conveniently next to it

We got placed in a lower level room with hill view.It was out dated older furniture showing damage and wear, big hole in floor by door, some of the walls were they didn’t finish painting, slider had no screen and old locks. Very noisy property.

View and so clean

Very nice room, amazing view. No elevators and a lot of stairs. Don’t bring rolling suitcases or a lot of luggage, if you can avoid it. Also, there are no food options at the hotel outside of the restaurant that does not have reservations until late night. Due to it being so out the way from most outside restaurants and the surrounding traffic, we used DoorDash and Lyft a lot.

Great view!!! Unique location. Clean room.

Never saw any staff.

• Forced to rely on a broken mobile web app just to access the property • Unsafe and misleading room access through a dark alley with rat traps Room issues were severe. • First room had a broken sliding door that would not close • Second room had a mouse run out of the bedroom • Third room smelled strongly of marijuana and had slippery floors from excess cleaning chemicals Response and resolution failed. • Long delays handled only by text • No urgency despite safety and cleanliness issues • Offered only a partial refund for a three-night stay This was not a staff or amenity problem. It was a basic safety, cleanliness, and management failure.

Love the view! Definitely recommend staying here.

The room was superb and the view was amazing, everything was excellent from the area all the way to service.

Everything was great. My day was wonderful and the online service was very quick to respond to any of my needs.

Amazing hotel. Everything out of this world good. The room spectacular. The view astonishing. The pool one of the coolest pools ive seen. Ive been to top hotels all over the world and rank this amongst the best will be back. One of a kind.

Room was spacious clean and what a view

There were no chairs to lay at the pool ! Other than that, we enjoyed our stay

Remote access took 60 minutes and never fully worked, limiting our access. Room was a bit beat up, some broken furniture. Great view, comfy bed.

First is the self check in, i guess they want you to check in by yourself so their staff can avoid your unhappy face and complains. Never see a more sorry looking building been called "hotel", it was some old 50s or 60s building. very basic decoration inside, they repainted but you just know it`s old. floor is thin, i can hear every steps form the room above. most the furniture in the room just old and cheap. view? maybe on the top floor, all i can see is the roof of another sorry looking building. All the nice looking photo about nice Japanese building, the garden, the view, are from the restaurant, they have nothing to do with the "hotel" part. for that price, there are much better options around.

Restroom needs better cleaning

The kitchen sink did not drain, just held water

This was obviously an old apartment that had been converted into a hotel to get around Air BnB laws. The room was drafty with a strange smell that wouldn't air out, it was dangerous getting up the hill to the location in the first place and no where on the booking were we told that their pool (our main reason for going) would be closed.

Clean spacious room with big balcony. Bathroom is just average. Great location. Parking was easy. Check in was super easy. Planning to stay again soon.

the best

amazing

best!

Floor was dirty

They're very hands on with the echeck in process.

They do not have any human in-person guest services. There is a kiosk or you text a phone number. The buildings are very old and there is dry rot everywhere. Although the rooms have a “nice” facelift, the floors shift or sag wherever you walk. Windows have rotting wood that was panted over. And at one point the upstairs neighbor was watering plants and the water was coming in through the windows and ceiling! There is also a hooka club lounge near the pool area that is loud until late, with patrons coming into the hotel and pool premises to use the pool restrooms. View is nice, but building conditions, lounge noise, and the lack of any front desk or human guest services is really a turn off.

Nice hotel in a fantastic location! The keyless entry was not working for me. Everything was worked out without too much stress.

The best hotel that ever was

Loved it, will stay again.

easy (I’m handicap ). The room was very well cleaned and organized , only problem is the lingering smell of cigarettes and the floors are oily and dirty.

My Wife and I had tge mist amazing experience at this hotel we went and enjoyed the Reggae fest at the Hollywood Bowl (which is in walking distance from the hotel) and finished out our night in the room. Great vibes, amazing views, spacious room. We had a great time we will definitely be coming back.

Check in was easy Walkable to the boulevard Large space Comfortable bed

I like the kitchen but maybe have microwavable bowls since there is only one burner for a toaster. The view was amazing. The staff was very responsive but unable to help because there is no staff on site My son had spilled water everywhere we needed extra towels and wasn't able to get them until the next morning. But overall we loved our visit. Even though the pool was not open

Nice hotel in the hollywood hills needs some tlc around the grounds but the views and local to everything in hollywood make it worth it

The pool was drained and I didn’t know that at booking or prior to my arrival. There are some people that clearly live permanently in different units. Ubers and DoorDash won’t come all the way down the hill. The floors were dirty my feet where black. There is no deadbolt or safety latch on any of the doors.

The room was perfect for our overnight stay. The check in process was as excellent and the room was appointed with everything needed. We would definitely stay there again.

Room doors have no keys, QR code entry which was a bit annoying... Room a bit dated but beautiful balcony view... Very hilly....if you're not in some decent shape you will need to drive or uber.....Nice restaurant with limited hrs

The view is the most amazing part of this place. I thought it would be cool to try out this hotel, I’ll see a show at the Hollywood bowl. But the lack of amenities, lack of assistance or help with getting around caused us to really not enjoy our stay. It was also ridiculous to park and walk uphill everywhere.

Quickly and generously resolved an initial issue with the room condition. Nice vibes on the hill with The Observatory in the distance. Good amenities.

Views are nice but the outside looks very outdated

Dead palm trees at the entrance look odd…..

No one works here so you can not get exrat towels or blankets no way to chage the temperature so it was cold all night. Unsafe parking area. Dont pay for parking there is no point. No swimming pool. No restaurants on site like they claim. Horrible customer service on the phone and the place is dirty, run down and gross. Dried up dog pee on the cloest doors. The fridge was not cleaned out and bathtub had grime all around it

When we arrived I was sorta creeped out but the room was spacious and very clean. The view was also spectacular!! I do wish there was vending for a late night snack or drink.

Comfy bed, Incredible views, great communication even though its remote check in I have never had better service from the staff!!

Very quiet and clean rooms.

We came into town for a show at the Hollywood Bowl and it was perfect! The views were incredible and we were very pleased.

We had an awesome stay! There was no one working but the place was well cleaned and stocked. Everything was virtual including key! It's like for real in the hills so if you like hiking.... then it's walkable! We tried that once. Thank goodness for Uber! We had events in Hollywood and this hotel was the perfect location. Mins to get to the main sites!! We loved it!!

Love the property. The room was filthy. Particularly the floors were so dirty we had to wear shoes rather than walk on the floors. The bathroom floor was clean. I imagine that the floors need to be cleaned with a specialty product or something because they turned our feet black.

Great stay breathe taking view, Only thing is its not more handicap accessible.

I liked the minimalist decor, landscaping, and the balcony/views were amazing! Unfortunately there was no heat other than a space heater/fan so the nights were a bit cold. Bathroom, kitchenette, and finishes were just ok.

Run down and not well cared for. Walking barefoot made my feet black, and several things were broken. And yet in the middle of my one night stay- I was asked to let a repair person into the room. When I said it was not convenient, (all via text, I had no contact with a human) they responded “thank you” and sent the repair person.

Breath taking views walking distance 10 min walk to hollywood blvd room was great bed was super comfy only thing that was missing was an ice maching but thankfully their fridge worked amazing overall would definitely recommend

Does not look like pictures on website. Room was run down, things falling apart. Floor left my white socks black. I asked for it to be cleaned twice. I think they thought a sweep was fine, it needs to be mopped! I had to go buy lysol wipes and clean myself! Mold growing on bathroom wall. No plug outlet in bathroom, room was big but basically empty with just a bed, a couch and a coffee table, no rug etc. Would not stay here again.

This is a fantastic hotel.

The people that work here are always helpful and kind. Nice and clean accommodations. Highly recommendable. *****

Pictures looked nicer than it actually was. Some how I thought we were getting the nicer rooms with more windows but that might have been my fault. Hotel is up steep hill which we walked unknowingly to check in so take a uber if you are not in good shape. Large space. Comfy bed. Shower was hard to turn off and on.

Very peaceful & the area is beautiful

There is no front desk and staff is randomly on the premises so if you need anything fresh towels for example. It really depends on your luck. I called for towels at night and was told I needed to request before 4 pm. I was told they could bring them around 8am-9am in the morning. I called them again in the morning at 9am and they said they would bring them to me around 10am. On Saturday night the main road to get up there was completely backed up because the property is shared with the Yamashiro restaurant. We spent about an hour just waiting to get to the hotel parking. Also Yamashiro restaurant uses the hotel guest parking for valet parking. So parking is limited.

Amazing view up in the hills. We were so graceful to have found it, and will stay again.

The view was incredible! The room was awesome!

We had a reservation here the night of an Imagine Dragon concert plus the World Series was playing at Dodger Stadium. That is to say about everything was booked up and we booked this way ahead. Well, a bit over an hour from us arriving in LA, on our drive there, we get a call from the hotel last minute canceling due to their having a "lock issue." No offer to call a locksmith or otherwise help us. Then it took a while to get the $30 parking fee they charged removed rebated. In fact i had to do a card dispute.

Yes excellent

Love this hotel! Will continue to come back. The service was amazing and very good with replying back fast since there’s no actual front desk to go to. Easy check in and Easy to park!

It was a good location except for the fires had to leave

Great place to stay beautiful views only bad part is finding that entrance of that place no big sign or anything little to hard to find. But overall is a great place to stay

The club/disco that’s here on the property you walk over to is fantastic!! Drinks were great too!! !

If you’re like me and tired of the commercial stays when you travel, you know with the lobbies and the concierge’s and the security things and I think this is a nice opportunity to just you know be quiet be just alone without all that commercial junk around you this is just really cool place

The only thing is it hard to park there. Another then that it’s awesome

My gav

Just beautiful

I absolutely love this idea lace-:)

I'm giving this place 5 stars based on the context of what the place actually is and what my expectations were after reading other reviews. I really enjoyed my stay here. We stayed in room 107. The website is a little misleading on what the place actually looks like and the condition of the rooms. The bed was super comfortable and we had a great view of Hollywood from the room and balcony. The room was huge was pretty clean but it could have been a little cleaner with paying attention to detail. The room looks like nice but also looks like it's ready for a remodel with some wear and tear on everything. The parking is limited and can be a little tight. It's a great location if you want to spend time in Hollywood. We spent most of our time in downtown LA and it was about 25 mins from that. I'd stay here again. If the view is important to you, make sure you get one of the rooms that has a view like 107 did. If you're not expecting perfection you'll enjoy it here. I'd stay here again though.

Great hotel && view

Now for the issues. This is an older building, there were rotten spots in the bathroom and living area. I can look past that. Lighting was horrible in our room. No light over the mirror in the bathroom, about 1/4 of the space didn't have any lights at all. We were in room 206, never had a problem when we came in as it was closest to the Motel Guest parking. The spots are small for the SUV but we managed. The old stairs that use to go directly to Hollywood were closed off and probably not safe to walk on anyways. If you walk down the road, the gate was locked with no way to open it unless you "break in" (which was not that hard) The remote for our TV was missing. i informed them right after we arrived and 3 days later and trying to get another remove we never had a TV in our room. (I mean the guest services tried everything from giving me the staff password to opening another room to try that remote to even changing rooms to a larger room the last night) Our room was lacking furniture. Nothing to put clothes in or on. The TV didn't face the bed which would have been an issue if we could have watched it.

Did not get any toilet paper. Staff was unable to provide any until the morning I left.

One of my favorite hotel stays of all time!

Very nice get away. The views and room was excellent

Self check-in was unexpected. That should be upfront, before booking. No interaction to find room, enter gates, attempt several times to use the door access lock. Simply mad 😠

.

I’ve stayed at this property a few times now. It’s always very clean and the location is perfect.

Felt like i was staying in someone's rundown apartment, all the way to the random 2 forks and a knife by the sink. Was afraid to walk on the floor barefoot. The shower curtain was so far from the shower that the bathroom floor was completely soaked. Big disappointment

I went to a concert at The Hollywood Bowl and enjoyed the 25 minute stroll from the hotel to the venue. The access to Yamashire is unequalled and the dining experience was 5 star, absolutely incredible views and fantastic scenery and great service and delightful food!

Like Hollywood itself, the promo reel for this hotel is fairly airbrushed. We had a clean, very spacious one bedroom which was ideally situated near the Hollywood Bowl. We ended walking back to the hotel after our concert but note, it is a fairly steep endeavour. It was worth it though as ride-share looked to be at least an hour wait for such a short distance. Read others reviews to decide whether this Hotel will suit your expectations. Hollywood Hills Hotel was great for us as we only needed it for one night. Be patient for your room key to be sent as it literally is sent to you just before check-in. For international travellers, you will a full on plan for your phone that allows DMs to your phone number. Communication with staff by email was very good with a quick response time.

This hotel is not only a deal, but the views of Hollywood are amazing...and the location is excellent.

Very hard to find location and room was very hard walk up down old stairs. There is no lobby or front desk. Staff is gone after 5:30pm so good luck getting towels and help. Over all not happy with experience

Fabulous hotel and I loved the balcony views. See my YouTube Reviews and Great Lifestyle Channel for the full review and details.

For these reasons, I would book this place again: Because it overlooked the other close by buildings and out over Hollywood. The room was large and comfortable w a kitchen and supplies. I also had a sentimental reason for wanting to try it out as my husband and I had been at both Yamashiro's and the Magic Castle many times in the past. The price was reasonable. The bathroom left a lot to be desired as the tub was strangely corroded. I would have loved to be informed that there was no elevator and the only way to the rooms were stairs...at night with luggage. I would have also loved more and better directions to get to the rooms. There was no one to help in person - I found myself at the Yamashiro's valet area where a valet was not friendly and just asked me to drive out but had no empathy for my looking for the rooms at night. I guess he was busy but it was slightly scary for a single woman at night.

Staffing was great! Very helpful and responsive. Overall the property was great. There were some areas that looked to be under construction but it did not affect our stay. Beautiful restaurant connected to the property too that is worth a visit. We will definitely be back to this hotel space in our future traveling!

Customer Service was excellent - my initial room was dirty and some of the infrastructure was not functioning as designed. Customer Service upon reading my check-in review called me the morning after my arrival to see if I was open to switching rooms - the team was professional and courteous.

The draining in the shower wasn’t working properly and it took awhile for the water to drain after it filled up.

We had a 3night stay at Hollywood Hills Hotel. The view of LA from our 5th floor room balcony was absolutely beautiful. The room was large and clean. The location to Hollywood Bowl and restaurants is great. The hotel does not have any elevators and has a lot of stairs which this info should have been forthcoming. The hotel does not have a front desk, so you have to call or text when you need something. On day two our toilet stopped working; my husband texted the concierge who responded by saying he would call a plumber (no maintenance on site) After hearing that my husband fixed the toilet himself. Our drain in the bath tub was extremely slow, by the time we finished taking a shower the tub was half full of water. We called down to request more towels at 4pm one day and was told that housekeeping had left for the day and we would have to wait till the next morning to get clean towels. On day two our QR code didn’t work on our room door. We called the concierge and had to leave a message, then we texted. After ten minutes of standing outside of our room, we finally got in after the concierge reprogrammed the code. This hotel is old, run down and lacks all human interaction. Customer service is awful because there wasn’t any. There was a large bag of garbage that was sitting next to the stairs that was there when we checked in and didn’t get moved till two days later. I give this hotel one star and that’s because of the beautiful view and the room was clean.

We stayed for 3 days and two nights. We had to use the same towels for three days. On the second day, I called for new towels and Front Desk said that room service stopped working at 4 pm. I requested new towels the next day, but they were not delivered. This hotel needs to have room service 24 hours.

This is a very particular property; it is perched up on a hill where the legendary, century-old Yamashiro restaurant sits. The hotel is not really a hotel, but an apartment-like group of suites. The views of the hills and Hollywood are really great, but the property is a bit run down. If you're into the whole slightly-creepy-David-Lynch-Hollywood-Hills vibe as I am, then this hotel is for you. It's clean, but does have that distinctive, mysterious "LA smell" of old carpet and wood. Overall the experience is great. The property shows its age, but is very clean, and it all adds to the atmosphere. It is VERY Hollywood Hills, so if you want to immerse in the vibe of the place, then by all means stay here.

Turned out more like a motel, not a hotel. The quality of the rooms are very different from the pictures. Very old unmaintained property and very sketchy location.

My friend and I were both sick by the end of our stay.

Our room had a broken sofa, sings of water damage throughout (broken plaster, peeling/discolored paint, broken drywall, rickety ac unit falling off wall). It didn’t have enough linens for our party and it took hours to get enough towels and I had to follow up on it multiple times. The contactless concierge/check in was not smooth - multiple issues with incorrect codes and was unable to resolve any issues in a satisfactory way. This place is not worth the near $300/night I paid to stay here.

Great room, exterior needs some work

The room had water damage on the walls and the floors didnt even line up. outlet covers were peeling and there was something that seemed like it was growing on the wall next to the bathtub

Old, run down, not stocked. Asked for towels never got them, asked for comforter never got it asked for coffee stuff for the maker and never got it. Always responded but never did anything. Room was dirty. Had no toilet paper

This place is clean & tidy but I’d never stay here again. No signs, not close to any walkable amenities, zero staff. Weird nose from a maintenance room all night. Not even a water dispenser - tons of stairs , no elevators to carry heavy bags up.

Clean your furniture and rugs

The walk in gate to the property doesn’t lock !

The property did require some work and is not as shown in the images. However, cleaning staff was great.

Very good check in and very clean room

The Good: The view is amazing!!! Great balcony with view of the holly wood sign. Little kitchen set up (I just used the fridge to store my food). Overall pretty modern simple set up. Not so great: My microwave didn’t work. The floorboards could use a new coat of paint, there’s also some rust on some of the fixtures in the bathroom, and the drain to my tub wouldn’t close so I couldn’t take a bath sadly. I didn’t use the pool so I can’t comment on that. Overall a good experience. I would maybe stay here again.

Beautiful property.

Not a hotel per se: no one is on site. Communication is haphazard. Room very much not as depicted on the website. Parking lot terrifying to navigate. Walls are paper; we heard everyone walking by. Suite smelled. We wrote off our pre-paid reservation and moved to an actual hotel that night.

Bed comfy, good shower. Great views. Building was dated- doesn’t look like pictures. Half the “hotel” was private residence- other half hotels. Some issues with the room such as floor boards separating and paint chipping. Wifi good and parking decent.

The qr code did not work well on the door. Otherwise, great room and a great stay! Near the Hollywood walk of fame, the Hollywood bowl and an awesome japenese restaurant. The Hollywood sign is visible from the property! So cool!

It’s a great little place to stay. But there is really no convenient places to get food. So I would advise to brings your own snacks, water and whatever else you need.

beautiful views of the hills and downtown from my room. Hollywood Blvd located at walking distance.

Sliding door to porch was difficult to open in room 107

This time I booked the same type of room , Classic Hollywood View. I got a room in a different building that had no view. The patio /balcony was also dirty. The hotel wasn’t able to accommodate a room change. Room 110 should not be listed as a Hollywood view.

Thumbs up

Anyhow, I do not like the check-in process and that there is no front desk. You check in with a QR code, and if you forget your phone, you're screwed because there's no one there who can let you in. So, in essence, you're best way of thinking is, don't leave the room without your phone. On my first night, they seemingly didn't change the sheets (I didn't know this) and I was scratching all night long, so I had a very bad first night of sleep. When the maid came the following day, it was an inconvenient time so I asked her to come back, she said no. I called the number then texted and well, it's hard to get in touch with a staff person to help you. Finally they called back and I explained the issue, was told she'd be back, but she never showed. I called back and the manager came over. He was great, and I helped him change the sheets. He tried hard, very nice guy. Overall, I don't think I'd stay here again. I don't think I should do the maid's job. There was a door with a squirrel-ridden balcony that I struggled to open; the runner on the floor was filthy. I booked a room with a view, and what I got was a room with a tree blocking any view and if I twisted my head I could see a little bit of Hollywood.

Convenient but not sure what room you will get

I was afraid for my safety the entire time I was there. The door handle on the main door was broken,there was no peep hole or extra lock from the inside. There was crumbs and stains on the sheets. The heater was set to 82 degrees Celsius and there was no way of changing that. The restroom has no ventilation, the bathroom seat was broken. There’s a loud hookah lounge downstairs that played loud music ALL night. At night there was a scary looking dark skinned man on the stairway observing God knows what. The paint was pealing. This place is run down and in very poor condition. I’m unsure how or why this place is even offered, it’s very unsanitary and unsafe.

This hotel was absolutely amazing, I think it’s perfect for your first trip to LA! The location is perfect and you can see the Hollywood sign right from the front of the hotel, walking distance from Hollywood blvd. :) the room smelled so clean when we walked in. And we had a corner room which was the absolute best! The views were immaculate. The customer service is great, they answer within 2 minutes. Check in and check out is contactless and there is not front desk so if you’re looking to leave your bags somewhere before check in, this is not the place. I would stay here again :)

Love the location with the view. Maybe I had higher expectations based on pictures I saw. While the interior had updated furniture and a coat of paint, the suite could use an upgrade. The tub was peeling and the area felt run-down. The QR door key was troublesome. Sometimes it took several tries. There has to be far advancements in QR readers these days that it should not be difficult to open a door.
