All upgrades were in the front entrance and lobby., rooms, beds, bathroom have to be the worst I have ever seen.. 1 channel tv with snow, 1 iron for the whole hotel.. Need I say more!!!!

Good hotelroom, small bathroom, not internett in the room, but in the lobby.

no micro og fridge, but coffeeshop in lobby.

nice bed, walkingdistance to subway and busses

We had a room with our own bathroom which was the only plus.
There is no AC and it was hot in LA, so that didn't help in a good night's sleep.
There is a fan on the ceiling which provides some 'cool' air.
The room is small with only the basic thinks like a sink and some place to put your bags.
The shower and toilet work, and that's it.
It looked clean but not nice or welcome.

If you're on a budget and can handle it being 90 or more degrees in the room then this might be for you, otherwise find yourself something else.

You can park your car in the parking garage next door which costs you about $15 a day.

Well i went to Cecil hotel on the 15th September i stayed there for 6 nights!. It was in a good part of downtown!. My room was big just for one person!. I never had a shower in my room just a sink!!.
When it comes to the shared showers on the 14th floor you have a toilet in there too but with no sink!. The bed was kind of hard but you get used to it if your staying there for a long time!. The only down point about it is you hear sirens going off every night!.
Pershing Square the metro line was just 15mins away from the hotel which was good if you don't want to stay Downtown that much!. There isn't a 24 hour security guard he gets to the hotel at 6pm and then leaves in the morning!. It was not a rough part of downtown just make sure you don't end up going to Skid row!
Overall it was a good hotel apart from i had a few little things stolen!. So yeah it was a good hotel. Nice people work there! and i saw on one of the pics of this hotel room with no plug sockets!. There are plug sockets haha. I'll probs stay here again!
