We stayed here for 4 nights in Oct 2011 and did not really care for the hotel. First night the room above us was "really busy" with people coming and going all night, did not have a great feeling after that but the rest of stay was quieter. Continental breakfast consists of pastries, fruit , and cereals. The good thing about the location was it was hot and we could sit by the pool while the 45 minute drive to the beach would be 18C and foggy.
Main problem is going to the beach or Hollywood or anywhere is a 45 minute drive on the freeways from this hotel.

We had a great time at the Vagabond inn. Large and clean rooms, beds were comfortable. Free breakfast was okay, consisting of muffins, coffee, juice, hot and cold cereals, and pastries. Staff was extremely friendly, providing helpful service. A little bit noisy since the hotel is right on the main road. Safe neighborhood. Lots of shops, restaraunts, and stores on Whittier blvd. Pool was also very nice

Had a great stay at the Vagabond. Remodeled rooms were functional, clean and well appointed for a 2 star property. Location was very convenient to visit family and friends. Quiet but safe. Didn't try the continental breakfast (standard cereal, donuts and whole fruit) but good proximate to restaurants and shopping. Friendly helpful staff. Would definitely stay again when we are in the area.

This motel has been updated - nice, comfortable beds, bathroom and shower updated and more than I expect at a two star motel. Double pane windows kept the noise of Whittier Blvd out - even the coffee at the continental breakfast was okay....... For me, this is a good alternative to the Radisson when in town to visit Whittier College, though I like the Radisson also (just not on nights when their disco is going). I will be back.
