6.8/10

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms and a really friendly staff. The location was great for accessing nearby attractions, but be prepared for a bit of a walk. While the dining options were limited, there was a nice cafe close by. Overall, the price felt fair for what I received, but a little more variety in breakfast would have been nice.

Rooms

Location

The location was decent, with good access to film studio tours, although it was a bit far to walk to major attractions.

Dining

5.0

There was a cafe on the corner, but the options were mostly sweet, and more variety should ideally be available at the hotel.
