Location.
Age of the facilities. Bathroom needs replacing. Water does not stay in shower and flood entire bathroom floor during each shower. Sink was crack. Soap dish cracked. Tile grout lines were visibly dirty. I didn’t feel clean in the bathroom. A leaf blower man blew right under my door blowing all the outside dirt into the floor of my bedroom. A housekeeper sang songs outside my door while she cleaned. I never felt like I had privacy or was alone because of the staff hovering outside my door.

It was a very small quiant place with free parking which is a big bonus for L.A.
I felt like for the value it was great but the bed was not very comfortable and the floors were dirty/ dusty and in need of a mopping.

I liked the location, clean air, clean hotel, Trader Joe’s across the street
I didn’t like the bathroom. And the price. $300 for 3 nights for such a small room and bathroom is not really reasonable. Not much walking space in the room and the shower is an old fashioned or prison style shower. There were no games at rose bowl that weekend so it should’ve been much cheaper especially during winter season

The staff were very helpful and allowed us to store our luggage and check in a bit early. The location is good - we stayed for one night for a concert at the Rose bowl. It's an easy 10-15 min bus or short rideshare to the old town area. One of the best parts is the Trader Joe's across the street. We appreciated the large mini-fridge and microwave in the room.
The location was quiet at night. Overall its decent value for one night if you're just there to sleep.
The motel is definitely old and outdated. The sheets are not big enough to fully cover the bed. The pillows are lumpy and there is only one per person. We were unsure if the blanket had been washed between guests.
The room was mostly clean, but the floors were not- my feet were covered in dirt after walking around barefoot for 5 minutes.
The bathroom is very small and there is nowhere to put your stuff or hang towels.
There is no coffee/tea maker as advertised.

It was near restaurants and Trader Joe’s and safe neighborhood
The beds are the most uncomfortable and the pillows are the thinnest I’ve ever seen it was extremely uncomfortable and the room what’s not as clean as I would hope.

if you are looking for a place to stay in convenient location, this is the spot. It felt safe and definitely good value. With that being said, beds are very firm, parking is small (it's a smaller property) so if you arrive late, it will be harder to secure a spot, and finally if you are on the left wing of the property there's a business right next door (it sounds like it's a car wash) that gets pretty loud early on. If you are a light sleeper, definitely be aware of that and try to request a room on the right side.
beds could be more comfy, but perfectly fine (and expected) for the price point

Very cute little oasis in the city, nice room, quiet
There was a lot of hair in the bed, like too much to even pick off

Polite and helpful staff, Fridge & microwave in room. A/C worked well. Parking close to room.
Would have loved a coffee maker in the room, but was not expecting one. No worries

the staff was great, easy parking, cute little buildings, just the right amount of amenities.
the room had a lingering smell that would come from the bathroom, i don’t think the toilet was deep cleaned well enough.

I liked that we had free parking and friendly staff. I liked the amenities (tv, fridge, microwave). Water temperature was great, all plumbing worked as needed. Shower tiles/niche were nice.
The road noise made it extremely hard to sleep. We also heard a lot of noise from other guests coming in. The door and walls don’t have a lot of sound insulation, so everything outside of the room was loud. There were also stains on the sheets. The shower curtain also looked dirty and took up a lot of space while I was showering. I’m a petite person (125 lbs, 63 inches tall), but I couldn’t shower without the shower curtain touching/sticking to me. The curtains also don’t block out light, so the parking lot lighting came into the room while we were sleeping.

Staff was polite and welcoming, very accommodating as I had accidentally booked smoking but preferred non-smoking room. This is a quaint little motor lodge straight out of the 50s, right down to the physical key on a diamond shaped keychain just like I remembered as a kid. What we loved best was that even though it was right on a busy street with a school right across the road it was quite quiet. We felt safe and appreciated that it was affordable. Great location for us after our evening at the Hollywood Bowl, less than 30 minutes away. The entire room was clean and had that freshly cleaned smell to it as we entered.
Our room could have used a few updates for example the shower curtain had mold or stains midway down, the tub while functional could use a resurfacing of new enamel or replacement all together as it looked like it was original to the property. The bathroom door, doorframe and medicine cabinet could use a little touch up paint due to chips where there was exposed wood, but nothing that would make me not stay there again. I do wish the mattress was a tad bit softer (personal preference really) as the pressure points on my hips would get sore but again not any thing that would keep me from staying again, I just rolled over and was good for a few more hours of sleep.
Overall these are all minor things really, I have stayed in name brand hotels and paid more per night for rooms that were no where as nice as this place, maybe bigger but not as nice. Just remember you are in a Motel and as motels go, one of the better ones out there in my opinion.

Nicely kept place, friendly staff, all rooms have fridge and microwave.
Rooms are quite small. The carwash next dot is a lot on the noisy side and sucks water pressure out of the showers. The AC blows directly on you, no outlet near computer table. Strange.. in opinion over priced.
