"Located in older, downtown area not far from LAX; not the best area, but I felt safe enough - lots of restaurants and grocery stores nearby - good place for the price - I had pets with me, so I was put in a 1st-floor room near the lobby; didn't enjoy hearing people scream at the front desk clerk at 3 AM almost every night - room was fairly clean, but the carpet was so filthy it turned my socks and cats' paws black - had a kitchen with dishes, cookware, and utensils - the window faced a wall - housekeeper made the bed and replaced the towels, but never vacuumed or changed the bedding during my 14-night stay - staff was friendly and always greeted me - had an exercise room - laundry machines always seemed to be in use - small snack shop operated on the honor system - appreciated the free, gated parking.2012-10-01"
"Convenient to SoFi Stadium. Our hotel room was missing light bulbs, and it wasn't serviced after the 1st night. The room service device didn't work. On a positive note, the room was clean and the bed was fairly comfortable. There was a lot of traffic noise at night. The staff was respectful. No decent restaurant within walking distance, just fast food.2021-12-04"
"The hotel was nice, clean, and quiet. Due to Covid, there was no housekeeping service, and breakfast wasn't available. There was no discount, though. The front desk staff was polite.2020-05-10"
"The hotel room was clean and nice. I liked the varied options at breakfast, including eggs and meat.2019-09-06"
"Located in an office park area; no restaurants or stores within walking distance. The room was nice, and the hotel was well-maintained. The AC didn't work adequately cool the room; we were on the sunny side of the building and had to keep the curtains closed during the day. The staff was unable to fix the AC; they did offer us a room change. We had to pay for parking.2019-04-12"

"We were pleasantly surprised by how nice and secure the hotel was. Breakfast was good and had hot selections, and there was plenty of free parking. Had an airport shuttle, too. I recommend staying here.2015-11-16"
"The motel was close to SoFi Stadium. The room wasn't ready when I arrived, but the front desk staff was calm and polite. The room was large, clean, and quiet, and had a microwave and fridge. The furnishings were slightly worn, but the bed was comfortable and I slept well. The included breakfast was disappointing. The gated garage parking was convenient and felt secure. Good experience overall.2021-12-09"
"Located in a sketchy part of town. The motel staff was so accommodating and understanding, but the room was awful. It wasn't particularly clean and smelled horrible. It was so bad that we asked for another room, but the 2nd room wasn't much better. The entire place reeked of smoke. The elevator was broken. Breakfast was either a breakfast burrito or a nutri-grain bar.2021-12-06"

"Good value. The motel was clean and I was able to walk to everything I needed. 2023-01-13"
"Close to the airport. The motel room had poor lighting, and we heard locals setting off fireworks nearby from 8-10:30 PM. The bedding wasn't clean, and we didn't realize it until daylight. It made me feel dirty. Don't stay at this motel.2016-06-19"
"The hotel clerks were polite and kind, but there were a lot of young people in and out and hanging in the parking lot, many without masks. The security guard and other employees didn't say anything. The AC in my room didn't work, and the carpet had stains. It was pretty peaceful on the 3rd floor.2020-09-05"
"The hotel was smoke-free, but I smelled marijuana in and around the building. There was a lot of noise, too. Poor water pressure in the shower. The staff wasn't friendly or accommodating. Stay away.2017-06-16"

"The motel was affordable, clean, and quiet. The room was nice. I didn't like the bed, but everything else was perfect.2020-03-31"
"The motel was clean, but don't expect much. I paid extra for a divided room with a sitting area, but the divider was just a 3-foot glass block wall and there was no overhead light. No tissue provided, and minimal towels. The hair dryer didn't work.2016-05-03"
"The motel was nice and clean, and the room was spacious. Worth the price.2016-02-08"

"I was minutes late for breakfast and wasn't allowed to even get juice or coffee. The hotel staff knew I had to get to the airport right away, but made me wait for a shuttle ride.2016-06-26"
"Not far from LAX. Cleaning wasn't up to my standards. The soundproofing was poor; I could hear neighbors walking and talking, and the plumbing was loud. The grab and go breakfast was delicious and nourishing. The guest laundry was outrageously expensive. OK motel for a short-term stay.2022-10-26"
"The staff was amazing. Stay at this motel.2021-04-28"
"Convenient to USC. The hotel wasn't high-end, but it got the job done. The room was clean, but we heard some traffic noise since it faced the highway. The sink didn't drain well, and the shower had poor water pressure. Pleasant front desk service.2018-01-27"
"Good hotel stay overall. The shower was hard to turn on though, and I had to position the showerhead in a certain way so water wouldn't go everywhere.2017-11-14"
"Right next to USC, but the area seemed a little rough at night. Pretty good experience overall. The hotel was average, but I wasn't uncomfortable. The staff was accommodating.2017-02-20"

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
