Exceptional from many perspectives
Pros:

Great location, with lots of attractions nearby.
Nice-looking, spacious, Hollywood-style room with comfortable beds. The room was clean and quiet enough, even though the windows faced the main road. The bathroom was comfortable and clean, and the air conditioning worked well.

A staircase full of memorabilia signed by famous stars – very impressive and definitely worth a closer look.
Paid parking is quite expensive, but the valet service is convenient.

I’ll remember the funny guy at reception who, after seeing our passports, joked in a kind way: “We have a lot of ‘Dzień dobry’ in our hotel today.” It made my day.

I can highly recommend the breakfast at Clark Street Diner: perfect service, great food, and a really nice atmosphere.
Reasonable price.

Cons:

nothing to complain with

Great place for a period vibe and great value.
Pros:

Cool boutique hotel with a great vibe. Good location and pleasant staff. The attached Clark St Diner has excellent food options and also has a clean and cool period feel. The room was renovated and there are acres of movie memorabilia on the walls. Lots of places to relax out at the pool and between the two towers.

Cons:

Our room AC struggled at times, but was bearable.

Un experiencia increible
Pros:

Solo imaginarse que a unos pasos del hotel se puede divisar el Hollywood Sign como si fuera que esta a unos metros. Imaginarse que solo a unos 5 minutos de caminata uno esta en The Walk of Fame. La ubicacion es fantastica. El personal muy amable, siempre listos para brindar ayuda. El costo del hotel casi un regalo en comparacion a los demas. Excelente el hotel.

Bien
Pros:

L’originalité de la deco et son emplacement. Le dinner en bas de l’hôtel.

Cons:

Le bruit extérieur. Je sais bien qu’il y a des inconvénients dans le grande ville mais la chambre n’était pas du tout insonorisée. C’était comme si nous dormions la fenêtre ouverte tellement on entendait le bruit de l’extérieur

Interessant
Pros:

Das Hotel liegt nicht weit von Walk of Fame, ca 10 min zu Fuß.

Cons:

Die Parkplatzsituation ist etwas skurril, der Parkplatzwächter parkt die Autos selber. Bei der Anreise kann auch Staus entstehen
