I am working at a 5 star hotel chain and not used to staying at motels. Portofino Inn was a nice surprise. They recently renovated their rooms and the clientele is middle-class tourists and business men. Room was good size and up-to-date, nice decor. I stayed with them for 7 nights on leisure as I was visiting my friend in... More

Accommodating folks who worked with us when we had personal issues. Very comfortable pillows and mattresses. Fridge and microwave and understanding attitude about having food in room. Good mirrors. Lovely flatscreen t.v. More

I stayed at the Portofino at the beginning of September 2011 for three nights. I had booked online months prior, and the Web site made it look like a three star hotel, maybe four. But I did happen to see a photo of the motel sign before I arrived, and I anticipated it wasn't nearly that nice. Indeed, upon arrival,... More

I usually stay in nicer hotels, but it looked pretty cute on the website. when I got there, it looked like a 2 star motel... so I was a little leery. but the bedding in my room was great- it felt more like a 3/4 star ... I'm kind of picky about my sheets. lol. it was great for a... More

The rooms were small but very clean. $13 cab fair to Warner Brothers Studio Tours and the Ellen Show. We used public transportation to save money and felt totally safe. Everyone on and off the bus and subway were very nice. The cab ride to Burbank Airport was $20.00 with tip! Great for the money, great for location, just plan... More

I chose this INN through the positive reviews posted on the Trip Advisors' website and sadly - it was all the in the contrary! I have relied in Trip Advisors' website for great places to stay & never did I recall having to stay in a place that they ranked in their Top 10 list that I was so disappointed... More

Now I know what SENIOR ABUSE is. My experience started with poor service. I am partially handicapped and have a hard time using stairs. I had been told I would have a choice of upstairs or downstairs. When I saw the stairs I asked for a first floor room. They showed me a room back by the trash and generators... More

Nice place.Free parking. Nice people who run it. Pleasant breakfast. Fair room with microwave. But man get rid of that cleaning fluid smell!!!! As you enter the room you are immediately met by this strong smell of cheap cleaner. I'm sure it is toxic and would not be safe for small children. I got used to it but barely. Had... More

I almost forgot to review this place! I booked this motel, last minute, for a business trip. I was surprised to get a decent rate (around $99) for booking so close to my travel date. I was a little worried about how my stay would be because of the way the exterior of the motel looked. I mean, it sits... More
