I felt like the walk from the front entrance was quite the distance and you could only catch ride shares from the front entrance. Discovered this the hard way. This particular room had to be close to the pool and club area as you could hear the music late at night.

I had an incident where I accidentally left my key card inside my room, I went down to reception to ask for help and a woman told me to go up to my room and wait for a security guard at my door so I did. And I waited for almost 2 hours Iand nobody came up I was holding many bags and my food the woman at the reception could clearly see that and she still told me to do that. So after all that time I went back down to reception and I tell her about it and guess what she does she gives me the new key cards in seconds like she was able to do that since the beginning yet she didn’t. That was incredibly mean it was awful

HORRIFYING. Hair in bathroom. Parking expensive nightmare. Unsafe neighborhood. Rude unprofessional staff guy on a screen checking you in with endless codes you have to keep track of to get in and out of the room and building with a piece of paper?! Refused a refund and we had to initiate this long awful process of having Expedia pay us back because the hotel would not. DO NOT BOOK IN HERE. Truly a nightmare experience for us and it pretty much ruined our trip to LA financially and otherwise.
