Best Hotels near Awaken Ministries, Los Angeles

The two personnel who provided services to me was simply easy. My issue was resolved so fast that actually i had no issue. Both individuals should be commended for their superior support and services and should be brought forward to higher responsibility, they displayed extreme professionalism and exuded true traits of being bright, quick thinking and very articulate. These traits are the epitome of an organizations success. 10 rating that comes with care and true concern for their customers. Excellent property and staff! Thanks and see you soon. Room 106 is extremely comfy, I know I was there.

The property (from the marketing info, is supposed to be a ~100 year old hotel) has the feel of an old-style downtown hotel, unlike the typical roadside hotel/motel which is common today. A few days prior to check-in, I attempted to contact the hotel to confirm my reservation, however there was nobody answering the phone; however, they do respond to text messages. The day you check in, they send you a text message with a link for a form to fill out prior to arrival. However, upon arrival (which was late at night), the desk clerk at check-in was very welcoming and helpful, as were all the desk clerks I interacted with throughout my stay. The room I had (called a full bed studio), was definitely small (compared to modern hotels), however for the price considering the location, was definitely adequate. The room had a microfridge and all the coffee condiments, but surprisingly no coffeemaker. Also, there was no soap or shampoo in the bathroom (besides a bottle of hand soap next to the sink). Housekeeping came to service the room at one point in the stay, something not very common post-COVID. The property is located close to downtown Long Beach, within walking distance of the beach as well as many of the shops and clubs on Broadway. Parking is an additional $18/night, and is in a parking area connected to the alleyway next to the property.

Beautiful, pristine and clean rooms. Friendly receptionist staff that make your stay worthwhile! We stayed a few days here and the service was wonderful. The atmosphere was very familial and the staff were very helpful. Never had trouble finding parking and the area the hotel is in is very convenient. I had lost my room key multiple times throughout our stay and the front desk staff was kind and understanding to reissue new ones each time. 10/10 recommend!

Great hotel! Convenient parking (locked with gates), clean, good amenities (iron, fridge, coffee maker with coffee and teas, hairdryer, iron, shared microwave), very good breakfast (cereals, yogurt, fruits, waffles, eggs and sausage patties, bagels and cream cheese). Also, it has onsite restaurant with a 50% dining offer for guests.

After brief attempt to put deposit on our room, a woman at check-in counter said “since we’re not vibing, I’m going to cancel your reservation.” I’m not kidding. They have one portable card reader and it wasn’t taking my card. Called the card company, they told me it’s fine. I waited outside 1 hour to check in with an elderly parent who they wouldn’t bring a chair for, she and I both had to stand and get lectured—The lady listed all the countries she’s visited (literally started and wouldn’t stop listing countries), her point being that deposits are important everywhere you go. All this with chase on the phone telling them my card was fine and ready for them to run, that their card machine wasn’t pushing the transaction to chase. The hotel staff insisted that it wasn’t their machine because someone else was able to check in with a card deposit. The lady had no problem rolling her eyes, talking down to us, and the only time she was respected was when my card company told her on speaker that she was being recorded (the usual message) but at least something. It didn’t help so then they call their manager who tells us our card is bad and gives us an ultimatum to leave now and he will cancel the reservation or to stay for the full time. I asked if we can just stay one night until we make other arrangements (by that time I called all other hotels within walking distance to event I needed to attend they were all booked). He said we either stay the whole time or we cancel. They gave us the room next to the trash cans by the stairs and loud laundry room and said it was the only option. Maybe. To stay we used my parent’s credit card for a deposit, which I didn’t want to do and didn’t want her to be responsible for incidentals. On taking my mom’s card, the lady at the desk rolled her eyes and said “see, that wasn’t so hard was it?” I’m still processing the level of bullying from this place, just hoping everything else goes well. It’s clean and the room is nice, there is on site parking on a first come first served basis. I missed several classes for my event, but they really don’t care and won’t work with you, only try to get rid of you if you call them out on their machines not working. Not sure what the cherry on top is but I’ll continue with—whoever you come with, you’re sleeping under the same blanket with them because the Inn at 50 doesn’t have extra blankets. Asking twice or another staff member doesn’t seem to help. They also weren’t able to locate an extra suitcase stand but that’s not as interesting as the check-in process. And checking out was even worse. The stay was thankfully alright, we were right by the laundry room so there was no no napping in the day from the noise but otherwise comfortable. When we were checking out my mom asked for them to check the room so she can get her deposit back. They said they had to wait for someone to get there. Then that someone arrived and they still weren’t coming and we were waiting again. Then my mom

The hotel is not bad, the location is good, walk to Long Beach and the Ocean Museum for ten minutes. There are many restaurants around, and there are many hotels like Marriott, which are more expensive. This is similar to a motel, and the price is OK. It is a bad attitude towards Ctrip booking staff, saying that after the deduction is not responsible for the success of the booking, even directly call me

The hotel environment is very good, dining on the beach. There are long scenic paths along the coast to enjoy. Sitting on a sofa by the water during the day is great! There are flames at night. The floors are not too high, and it is convenient to go up and down. Next time I go, I will choose here.

After a 6 hour drive we arrived at the Travelodge by Wyndham in Long beach CA, only to find out they had given away our room. They claimed we had a “bad card” as they had tried to take the money before we had arrived. We had no notice of cancellation from hotels.com nor had the hotel tried to contact us directly. We had no notification from the bank about a declined transaction which we would have and the card we used requires a pin because we are from the Uk and this was in USA. We asked for proof of cancellation and on the note it says we cancelled the booking when we obviously didn't. They had just lied. Because we were so tired we ended up in a horrible smelling smoking room, which we paid for with the same “bad card” we booked with in the first place. No apologies and they tried to blame it on us. Put a real sour note to the end of our trip. After a 6 hour drive you need somewhere you can trust and this isn’t it. Recommend booking somewhere else, we will be in future.
