Excellent hotel for the price
Pros:

Great hotel, the pool area is beautiful, and the bar/restaurant is not overpriced.
The room was clean and spacious. We just wished we had more time in our road trip to spend another night there.

Cons:

I never like to pay extra for parking, but it's L.A., so it is what it is.
I would strongly recommend that the hotel page in Booking.com showed the extra charge more clearly

Donde no te sientes comodo, no vuelves
Cons:

Quede decepcionada, primero con la mala predisposicion de la recepcionista que nos atendio. Nos tratamos de comunicar en ingles, y despues de mucho, nos dice que habla español (aparte se notaba el porte latino, era indudable) No nos informo que posterior a pandemia (excusa que nos dio otra recepcionista) los cuartos se realizan dia por medio. La puerta de la habitacion estaba caida, fuera de marco, y teniamos que levantarla para cerrar, o empujarla con el hombro para abrirla.
No me parecio un hotel con calidad Hilton.
Cobran aparcamiento, por un lugar al aire libre, y la barrera tampoco funciona bien. Me parece que es un servicio que lo podrian brindar, o al menos ocultar en el valor de la habitacion.
