Extremely uncomfortable and very noisy
Pros:

I was checked in a room which was extremely noisy because of the Aircon motor was obviously making a kind of a jet engine noise.
When I complained the staff did not believe me
After the second night of not being able to sleep I asked to be checked in a different room.
The staff reluctantly gave me another room 4 doors towards the entrance.

This time the noise was worse because the wall was actually vibrating and a staff member actually listened and he also heard it, also the next door neighbour also complained in front of the staff member, but still the management did not give me another room.

When I complained to the manager she said that they will tell maintenance about it, and still did not offer another room

It was worked out that the the aircon machines were directly above in the attic of the building and it was definitely defective so I was told and that maintenance will look at it at some time later in the week.

Again I was not offered a quieter room

Around 2am I had to go to reception to ask for another room but he said there are no rooms available till two days later.

So I spend my vacation time not being able to sleep therefore I also was unable to go to my pre paid planned tours for the first 5 days.

I checked in on the 4th September and checked out on the 11th without even an apology from any staff and even the manager did not care at all when I personally told her politely about the situation that I was put in.

Cons:

Nothing

Staff super friendly, beds were super comfy, showers were a bit stained. But overall liked the place.
Pros:

It was conveniently located by Universal Studios.

Cons:

The signal to exit. It’s at a light that enters the freeway and doesn’t turn green. Just flashes red. I had to make sure all signal lights were red before feeling okay to exit. Or I just made a right and then a u turn.

The Good and The Bad
Pros:

Being a mile away from universal was great! Having a bar across the street with affordable drinks was also great!

Cons:

I didnt like the hotel reeking of weed so much but I got over it and I also didn't like having the power going out for like 30 minutes one of the days I was staying there.

Not fancy but very comfortable.
Pros:

Everything was comfortable and clean.
