Für ein zwei Nächte ok, unten gibt es ein Diner das wirklich toll war.
Pros:

Die Freundlichkeit war irgendwie künstlich, der eine Mitarbeiter wirkte immer sehr genervt und kam arrogant rüber.

Cons:

Schimmel im Badezimmer. Es gibt nur eine Schiebetür zwischen Bad und Schlafraum. Es war sehr laut in der Nacht und am Morgen. Es wirkt eher wie ein Motel da es draußen offene Balkongänge gibt.

Hotel bem localizado e agradável!
Pros:

A localização é muito boa, próximo da Calçada da Fama, teatro Dolby, e outros pontos turísticos da Hollywood Boulevard, perto também de supermercado. O chuveiro é muito bom e a cama é confortável. O tamanho do quarto também é muito bom! Chegamos cansadas de viagem e eles disponibilizaram um quarto pra deixarmos as malas antes do horário do check-in e isso foi ótimo!

Cons:

O quarto tem carpete e isso pra mim não é legal pq a limpeza é sempre duvidosa. A cafeteira não funcionou, mas como fiquei só 2 dias não reclamei na recepção.

Surprisingly fun, safe and friendly place to stay. Would definitely book it again.
Pros:

The hotel is a few blocks walk from the Walk of Fame and surprisingly quiet. Max who checked us in was funny and a delight to deal with as were all the staff we encountered on our 2 night stay. Our Queen double room was perfect for our flying visit to LA, comfy beds, good shower and fun decor. The pool is heated and was a life saver after a 20 hour trip from Australia. The attached Clark Street Diner is a mid century gem with great staff and food. We ended up having breakfast, lunch and dinner there during our stay and were never disappointed. Sadly we didn't make it to the Franklin Lounge for a drink but it looked full and vibing when we poked our heads in.

Cons:

Our only issue was the fact the bathroom light was on a sensor and turned on full every time we used it during the night. We weren't sure if there was a way to turn it off but we just used sleep masks.

Perfect Hollywood location and movie themed vibe
Pros:

Mostly, the location, creative interior design, and pool area with starshape lighting :)

Cons:

The retro style phone has been broken upon our arrival. Some of the staff at the reception were not looking welcoming. However, most of the days, receptionists were positive and willing to help, especially upon our arrival on 26th of March
