The staff were very pleasant and helpful and there was always someone on reception.
As three adults, we stayed in a Queen room. Beds were very comfortable and the room was huge, far bigger than other US hotel rooms. The bathroom was also spacey with a walk in shower. Air conditioning was good. We also had a lovely view over the pool. As is normal with American hotels, we had to request housekeeping which we did every 3 days. It was always completed quickly and to a high standard.
The pool itself was very pretty and never had more than 2-3 people using it so we enjoyed it quite a few times.
Breakfast is busy but not once did we have to eat by the pool or in our room. Usually by the time we had picked our breakfast items, a table had become free. Breakfast is excellent value with a, wide choice of food including cereal, yogurts, bakery items (bread, pastries,muffins, crumpets) cooked food (egg, sausage, ham etc), fruit and waffles made to order. Also juice and tea /coffee available. Self service. The paper plates and cutlery were fine to use but I noticed china plates available too.
We used the laundry which was spotless. We never encountered anybody else using it. I think it cost around 10 dollars for powder and the washer and dryer. Well worth it.
The hotel is situated in a great spot with lots of restaurants on the doorstep. We recommend Saddle Ranch (directly opposite) Carneys, ( a couple of minutes walk away) Joe's Pizza (a couple of minutes in the other direction) , Mel's Diner and of course, the amazing Rainbow Bar and Grill. If you can get to an In N Out burger a short taxi ride away we 100% recommend it. They are absolutely a cut above McDonald's etc.
There is a shop called The Pink Dot about five minutes walk away. It is open late and sells everything from snacks and toiletries to hot food. There is also a cvs (2 in fact ) and other shops a short walk further up Sunset or a steep walk down LA Cienega. It's very safe in WeHo.
We used Uber or Lyft to get around which is expected as you can't walk to any attractions in LA. A great reliable, safe service and well worth the money for comfort and security. Lots of fantastic places we could recommend but definitely visit The Observatory, Santa Monica/Venice and Hermosa Beach. It's a beautiful area The Magic and Comedy Club there is brilliant but you must book in advance. We saw Jay Leno who was great.
Also book Jonny Dams Rock and Walk Tour, you won't regret it!Show More
