Felt like a luxurious home away from home. 5 Stars.
Pros:

You can't tell from the outside, but this is an impressive private club that also operates as a hotel. Large, beautiful suites that are elegant and fun with a slight touch of retro glamour. Beautiful courtyard, swimming pool, lovely breakfast, café, a large club room area on the fifth floor that has events, a cabaret, private viewing cinema room, and a gorgeous rooftop deck bar and excellent restaurant. Will definitely stay here again. VERY comfortable bed and remarkably quiet.

Cons:

Neighborhood is so so but it is not far from WeHo. Was very convenient for my meetings, which were in a private home up in the Hollywood Hills.

Nice place, more for single business executive type people, not families.
Pros:

The location was perfect for attending a show at Pantages which is why I chose it. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. The king suite room with pool view/balcony was spacious.

Cons:

The light was out on one of the bathroom fixtures and there was no hand soap put in from previous room cleaning. I also did not have access on my key card to go into the locker changing room after working out which I was told I would. Small things but a little annoyance. The man who helped us with our luggage to the room (I regret not getting his name) was very nice and hospitable and showed us thoroughly around the property where the gym, recording studio, 2 separate dining areas, pool and cinema were located. My son really wanted to use the recording studio $100/3 hours with a sound tech guy isn’t bad, however we kept getting told different times it was available for booking and only had one afternoon/evening free so it unfortunately didn’t work out. The front desk staff in general came off as a bit snobbish to me. I’m not their typical executive business member (it was my 16 year old son and I on a two night getaway to see the phantom mostly) but I splurged on an expensive room nonetheless for a comfy stay and felt looked down upon by them in general like we didn’t belong there. So it was bit uncomfortable walking in and out each time.

Recommend this place. We would stay there again.
Pros:

Very clean. Quiet. Good location. Huge room, but we were upgraded so not sure this is standard.

Cons:

Breakfast was not that good. Only at the restaurant one time though. Pool looked pretty small, but we did not use it.

Pros:

Luxurious rooms. Amazing rooftop lounge, bar, and restaurant. Good location in the middle of Hollywood.
