The family running the place were friendly and fantastic.

Awesome stay.! Will stay again.

This is a serviceable property. Nothing special but it'll do for a short stay. The pros are the location is on a vibrant street, walking distance to a Trader Joe's, great restaurants and an amazing doughnut shop. You're only 5-8 minutes from Old Town Pasadena and the Rose Bowl.The price really can't be beat for the location. Microwave and fridge in the rooms are a nice touch. The cons are the amount of corners that they cut in rooms. While the rooms and linens are clean, the room is showing it's wear and tear with the windows and doors. Screens, paint and windows need attention and the doors in the room stuck badly when opening/closing. The bathroom is where they really cut corners. The towels are too small for an adult and of the coarsest material. The toiletries are a small pouch of shampoo and a small brick of soap that doesn't lather at all. The real problem however, is the shower. No water pressure at all which combined with the other issues really made that part of the stay very unpleasant for both of us. The service could be improved as well as the person welcoming us/checking us in behind a glass window really wasn't that friendly or personable. As stated, the property is serviceable and affordable but don't get your hopes up for much else.

Nice and easy to get around and did what it needed to do 🙂. Nice area 😄.

We really liked it, so nice and cozy . Its like having your own cabin and the man at front desk was very nice and helpful. Would stay again and can recomend it.

We chose this hotel due to location and proximity to Universal Studios. The room was clean and comfortable.

We loved this little place! We needed a place to stay after going to an event at the Hollywood Bowl and this was perfect and very affordable. Everything was clean and well-maintained and the people at check-in were very friendly.

THE GOOD: staff (maybe family owned?) is friendly and helpful, despite a significant language barrier, the location near Rose Bowl Stadium is good and an easy Uber, and it's across street from Trader Joe's to buy breakfast stuff and wine, cuz you're gonna need it. THE BAD: the place is old, the room is small, the bed is rock hard with two small flat pillows on a king size bed, the bathroom does not have a single electrical plug, there is no light in the tiny shower that has mold in it, there is nowhere to put your suitcase as the room is too small. No closet or dresser, the tv is mounted up in the corner and ruins your neck if you try to watch it, no hair dryer in the room, although they gave me one when I asked for it, but it was a typical hotel dryer that should be mounted on the wall, so i plugged it in and the base of it just dangled on the wall while I used the dryer. I am not a hotel snob and I really try to see the good in places, but this one, even at the price, will not be seeing us again.

Cute little motel close to Rosebowl! Very nice staff. Comfortable, but could be a little cleaner. Overall, I loved it! Thank you.

clean

Air conditioner not working properly, uncomfortable bed, flat pillows, only half roll of tissue paper and one tiny soap.

The bathroom was clean but curtains and blanket were terribly smelling! The pictures in web site are misleading: it’s only a motel for one night il you don’t find anything better!

everything ok

I'd give this place 0 stars if I could! I checked in and once I got into my room, I pulled the sheets back and immediately saw a bug. I refused to stay there and risk the chance of bringing home bed bugs. I grabbed my things and took the key back to the owners. I told them why I was leaving, then they insisted that I show them what I was talking about. They immediately started arguing with me and denied that it was a bed bug. He just kept staying "my wife cleans the sheets"... OKAY SIR, THERE'S STILL A BUG IN MY BED. I left and stayed at The Westin in the nice part of Pasadena. This place is not in the greatest area either. I've filed two credit card disputes and they refused to give me a refund. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!

Family style motel, travelling around LA was easy from this location.

Charming! Quiet!

Happily surprised to find this spot last minute. Quiet and clean. No frills, and a/c unit was not very good as the room was quite warm but it was comfy and it provided a clean and quiet stay while our car got fixed. Close to tons of places to eat and shopping. Staff were friendly.

No frills motel. Everything is Basic but works. Rather small rooms. Not much space to move around. TV suspended from ceiling should be on wal & causes neck strain to watch!. It is small motel so adequate parking . Shower unlit? . We get what we pay for. Nearby similar cost slightly more for larger rooms.

For the price it was good. As most reviewers say it's what you paid for, very basic: A clean bed & bathroom, you also have tv, wifi, mini fridge, microwave and free parking. No dresser, closets or coffeemaker like most rooms. It's busy but quiet area. There was two great diners near by for breakfast: Cindy's across the way and Pete's Blue Chip a couple block to the right of the place and taco truck and a few restaurants. CVS, Starbucks and Target near by. Very easy to get to Griffith Observatory, Warner Bros and Universal City.

Very nice and quiet. Small and cozy

It’s very good! Liked it. No complains. Friendly staff and the room is very clean.

It’s not your 5 star hotel but a great place to stay when you’re looking for a convenient location. The rooms are dated, but not uncomfortable. We were going to an event at the Rose Bowl and this motel offered free parking and was really close to the venue. The owners are on site and super attentive! I would definitely stay there again.

King size bed was comfortable and bedding seemed clean. Windows, when closed, blocked street noise well and the room was dark at night for sleeping. Refrigerator rain continuously, sometimes making a high pitched noise, due to door seal not being tight. Shower curtain covered in black mold and tub had a very slow drain, so you have to stand in a few inches of water when showering. Window screen in bathroom did not fit properly leaving large gap. No kettle or coffee maker in room and only two flimsy plastic cups provided. Heard animals scampering around in the ceiling one night.

Close to restaurants, Los Angeles attractions. Room is quiet and comfortable.

Never stayed there was planning to but decided not to after speaking to staff. Needed to confirm few things. First call was super sweet second call he was not sweet at all. And the deposit information kept changing. Made me feel uncomfortable for some reason so I decided not to stay there. Have to be safe these days.

Quiet neighborhood. Convenient location, close to freeway, Trader Joe's and other businesses. Wonderful staff. Would stay here again!

The sheets smelt like urine.

We drove in from Texas and got there really early.The guy let us check in early which was a blessing.The room was really nice and we would definitely stay there again.

Mid-century gem, well-preserved and maintained.

property location was so convenient close to dining, grocery, shops, freeway-

The property was really nice and because of it's small size it had a old town feel to it and private. The room was really clean and had a welcome home kinda feel to it.

Property is located pretty central to everything, rooms are a little small but very cozy.
