My family and I had a great and comfortable stay and looking forward to future bookings!
Pros:

Inside, the property is well maintained and secure.

Cons:

Outside, but within the property's perimeter, it is nice and clean. Unfortunately, the parking lot is not gated and blends into a shopping center lot that has regular foot traffic of area transients.

Pros:

J’ai beaucoup aimé l'emplacement de l’hôtel et la taille de la chambre. Le petit déjeuner peut-être à la carte ou buffet, c'est appréciable.

Cons:

Le bruit de la climatisation de la chambre voisine quand elle se lance ( nous avions coupé la notre) et le frigo qui emettait un bruit aigu

Bad follow though when it comes to what was promised
Pros:

Facility pool area was very nice

Cons:

When we stayed we were left up all night while my son was sick as a dog due to another tenant being loud I had to call the front over and over again to complain nothing was done until 4 am or later then I had to go through hell and back just to get a refund from staff very very frustrating

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.
