Reviews and Ratings
I had a great stay at the hotel. The rooms, although a bit on the smaller side, were nicely designed and very comfortable, offering unmatchable views of DTLA. The service was excellent, with super friendly and accommodating staff. The location, central in Downtown, was convenient for exploring the city. However, the dining options were limited. Overall, a pleasant experience.
The hotel offers well-designed and comfortable rooms, despite being smaller than expected. However, the lack of a coffee maker in the room, limited rooftop space, and absence of a cafeteria or reception area for socializing are drawbacks. On the positive side, the service is exceptionally welcoming and friendly.
Although the rooms were smaller than I thought and lacked a coffee maker, and the rooftop was cramped with no common areas to hang out, my stay was pleasant overall. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, offering top-notch service. The location was convenient in downtown, but the size was a bit limiting for me. The dining experience was decent, and the facilities were sufficient for a comfortable stay.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were super clean and modern, offering unbeatable views of DTLA, but I was disappointed by the smaller size and the lack of a coffee maker in the room. The rooftop was also too small, and there was no cafeteria or reception area to hang out.
The hotel's rooms were smaller than expected, lacking a coffee maker and with a rooftop that felt cramped. Unfortunately, there was no cafeteria or reception area for a leisurely hangout spot, but the staff was friendly overall.
I was a bit surprised by the size of the rooms, they are on the smaller side, but I must admit they are well designed and comfortable. Unfortunately, there is no coffee maker in the room, and the rooftop area felt a bit cramped. Also, the lack of a cafeteria or reception area made it challenging to find a spot to hang out.
