New Hotels in Los Angeles

"This hotel is in a great location in Downtown LA. From LAX, I took the FlyAway bus ($12.75) and then two subway stops ($1.75, flat fare) to Pershing Square, and it was just across the street. There's a paid outdoor parking lot opposite the hotel (I don't recommend renting a car in LA – traffic can be bad, parking is expensive, and California gas prices are high, around $2/liter. Public transport is only $1.75 per ride, with a $5 daily cap, and a $20 refill on a Tap Card is usually enough to get around LA). Safety-wise, I'd say it's decent. It's in a transitional area between the more dangerous Skid Row and the safer Financial District in DTLA. I'd advise against coming back too late or wandering around at night. If you do come back late, it's best to take an Uber. If you're walking, try not to stare at the homeless, and don't engage if they talk to you. The hotel has a live front desk and security. You need to use your key card to enter after 6 PM and also to use the elevator. It feels very safe during the day, so you can confidently go out and explore. Theft and robbery aren't as prevalent in the US as some might think; you'll see plenty of people playing on their phones while waiting at traffic lights, and people carry their backpacks normally. The hotel rooms, while not huge, have distinctive lighting. There's a tablet by the bed that allows you to activate a 'sleep mode' with one tap, and you can control the lights and TV channels through it, which is very cozy and comfortable. However, there's no kettle for hot water. For someone like me who likes hot drinks, you can go to the bar on the first floor and ask the staff for hot water for free. They also have various free tea bags. Coffee and alcoholic drinks are extra, though. If you don't feel like going out at night, ordering a drink and chatting with an American is a great way to experience the nightlife – Americans are really good conversationalists!"

"The location is a bit out of the way, but there's plenty of parking. There's no ice machine in the stairwell, which is a bit of a miss! The room was quite large, but I can't accept that they don't replenish the mineral water daily. When I asked the front desk, they said free water is only provided on the first day... I've never experienced this at any other hotel. Unless I can't find a room anywhere else, I won't be considering this hotel in the future."

"The room is OK, but the facilities are a bit old. In the United States, this health belongs to the lower level."

"The hotel was very clean and in a good location, just a 10-minute drive from Santa Monica Beach. There is a 7-Eleven next door, so you can stay here without any inconvenience. There were no problems with the facilities, but there were almost no amenities. (Shampoo, treatment, and body soap were provided, which was very nice.)"

"The location is a little bit from the main street of Santa Monica. It may be nice for Japanese people to have a bathtub. The room was cute, but I stayed for 2 nights and didn't clean the room. I wanted slippers."

"自駕方便不錯"

"The host was super responsive and incredibly friendly! I made a slightly unreasonable request, but they were very accommodating. Thanks to them, I had a fantastic trip in LA!"
