I stay a weekend here almost monthly for business for the past year, I'm only just now getting around to reviewing it. It's conveniently located to the 60 highway (entrance ramp is right across the street from the hotel) and the mall at Montebello (2 short blocks = 5 min walk). My room has always been clean and comfortable. I would not call it motel standards by far. It's not luxury either, though. For business travel it works for me, I get free Wi-fi, breakfast, a hot shower, working AC/ heat, and a decent bed (No, you won't find the signature Westin and Double Tree "heavenly" bedding here!). What more do you need for basic travel? I won't comment on the cost because the job pays for it, however, I have seen their listed rates and it looks reasonable online, unless it's a holiday weekend.

it's nice that they have water and fruit in the lobby. but considering their service and accommodation condition, it's way too expensive. In that area, their price is same as a nice four star hotel.

This hotel I must say needs the carpet updated. Overall I think the hotel is kept up nicely in a cleaning sense and the staff are extremely nice and helpful, but the carpet seems old and it has rippling in it to the point that my luggage was hard to roll. It also just felt gross to the point I didnt want to be barefoot. The is my only complaint in our 7 night stay. I cant say enough about the staff. At many hotels I have stayed at the staff are nice and you know they must be because they are trained to be and they would probably loose their job if they werent, BUT the staff here actually seemed GENUINELY kind people who truly care about your experience in LA. I have to say that of all the hotels in and out of the states that I have stayed at the staff here have left a lasting impression not only on myself but also to my 10 yr old daughter.
Little facts that I experienced...If you are coming to LA for tourism it really isnt near the tourist attractions. We were visiting friends who just had a baby and they live in Arcadia. It was less than 10 minutes from their house. This hotel does NOT have a gym. It is about 30-40 minutes from airport without traffic. 30 minutes from Universal Studios without traffic and though Malibu beach may read 37 miles or so it took us over 2 hrs in the middle of a weekday :( The hotel has free internet and breakfast and great cable channels. There was a fridge and microwave in the room and one day we ordered pizza and they delivered extremely fast to our door. Overall I cannot say enough about the staff from the housekeeping to the young lady that put breakfast out every morning and the gals and guys that ran the desk. They all deserve 10 stars each for great customer service :)

We stayed here for 2 nighrts. The hotel is situated close to highways so it was easy to get around.
Our room was spacious but there were leftovers from the previous guests... we found drawings and stickers on the wall...
The shower is so powerfull that it almost throws you against the wall!
Breakfast was good, the usual stuff. There was enough room for every guest to sit.
Staff was very polite and helpful.
