Pros:

I was unable to contact the front desk using the phone in my room, and there was no guidance or explanation at all about which number to use to contact the desk at the time of hotel check-in or in my room, which was disappointing.

Pros:

Oxford is a bit old and you can tell it needs a remodel. However it wasn’t terrible. The rooms were clean and neat. Downside when we were there was that the elevators were broken so we had to take the stairs every time. The hallways were really warm too. But luckily the room had good AC. Staff was friendly and helpful. There’s two dining options in the hotel. Outside of the hotel the area is a bit dirty but it is LA so not surprised there. However, we are in Koreatown so plenty of food and drinks to enjoy. Some places were also open really late so that was great. There’s an HMart and a plaza about a 7 min walk away so there’s plenty to do. I would stay here again. Just hopefully the elevator doesn’t break down again haha.

Quirky Koreatown Boutique Beauty
Pros:

Quirky Korean-themed contemporary-modern boutique hotel with comfortable bed and Jetson furnishings; but the push-no-knob drawers didn’t always work, the lighting was challenging and the bathroom had a full length counter but only one small basin. The staff was friendly but their ability to help was limited.

Just a place to sleep
Pros:

Front staff was super friendly when arrived!! Hotel is a bit outdated. Bed was not comfortable at all and room did not have an iron. Overall it was a place to sleep, but probably wouldn’t stay again.

Pros:

Great service and location! I called ahead because we were going to get there a little past 11:30pm and they stayed open to let us check in. They upgraded me to a deluxe room for free and the room was beautiful, spacious and clean! Walking distance to a lot of restaurants, bars and taco stands. I really loved the free parking too!! I would definitely stay here again!

Moderate for staying in LA Korean town.
Pros:

The hotel was within walking distance from the main Korean town. The facility seems a little bit of old. During one night staying the hotel, we got fire alarm which was caused by unknown origin. Our room’s cable TV did’t work properly, the service showed up and spent a period of time to fix it but ended up replacing with new TV. The car parking was free and spacious.
