Categories

Cleanliness
8.6
Generally praised for cleanliness (many guests noted rooms and common areas were very clean and no carpet), but there is at least one serious report of moldy/musty smell and dusty corners that lowers overall confidence.
Service
7.8
Mixed service feedback: multiple mentions of friendly/front-desk staff (Miguel called out positively) and repeat guests appreciating staff, contrasted by one strong complaint about unpleasant staff and an impatient/disrespectful manager.
Location
9.2
Location is a clear strength — central South Bay spot, close to Starbucks/Target/Del Amo Shopping Center, private/gated setting — with occasional notes about nearby traffic or a noisy street/entry difficulty on Sepulveda Blvd.
Room Quality
8.6
Rooms are described as comfortable with good beds and some modern touches (openable windows on upper floors), but there are issues such as thin walls, a frosted-glass bathroom door that lets light through, and a report of moldy-smelling rooms in one stay.
Amenities
9.3
Strong amenity praise: repeatedly noted free, secure parking, pleasant common areas (fireplace, lobby seating), free coffee and tasteful remodeling/finishes.
Value for Money
9
Multiple guests describe the hotel as clean, affordable and 'great value' for short or longer stays; several repeat stays indicate good perceived value.
Food and Beverage
8.7
Limited mentions: free coffee appreciated and toiletries (shower gel/soap) noted positively; F&B not widely discussed otherwise.
Overall Experience
8.4
Overall experience skews positive with many repeat guests and comments like 'exceeded expectations' and 'great experience,' but tempered by isolated serious negatives (staff issue, moldy room) that reduce the overall score slightly.

Disgrace
Pros:

parking free

Cons:

The staff is unpleasant, and the manager is impatient and disrespectful. We will never go there again and will advise others not to visit.

Würd ich auf garkeinen Fall wieder buchen, schimmeliger Geruch, nicht wirklich sauber. Garkeine Empfehlung. Kann die gut
Pros:

Die Mitarbeiter waren nett und von Außen sah es gepflegt aus

Cons:

Zimmer rochen extrem nach Schimmel, nach Umzug in ein anderes Zimmer konnten wir da nicht die Klimaanlage anmachen weil die so muffig gerochen hat. Es ist oberflächlich sauber aber keinesfalls gescheit sauber. Überall in den Ecken extrem viel Staub und einfach dreckig. Es ist kein Hotel es ist einfach ein bisschen renoviertes Motel.

L’hôtel est parfait pour des séjours de courtes durée comme pour des séjours plus longs
Pros:

L’emplacement de l’hôtel est idéal. À proximité d’un Starbucks, d’un Target, et de Del Amo Shopping Center.
L’autre point fort est le parking gratuit et sécurisé.

Very not bad
Pros:

I really liked how clean everything was and that there was no carpet. (It was on the first floor.) The shower gel and hand soap had a wonderful lemongrass scent. I really liked that the hotel is located in a gated area, which made me feel safe. They also have a beautiful fireplace area.

Cons:

One thing I didn’t particularly like was the frosted glass bathroom door. At night, if someone uses the bathroom, the light shines through the glass and brightens the main room, which can make it difficult for the other person to sleep. This was noticeable even with only the bathroom night light on.
