Location is ideal for those not renting a car. Farmer’s market and the Grove shopping center within walking distance, so is Starbucks for breakfast. Several museums (Motion Pictures, Automobile, County Art, and La Brea tar pit) in the area. Bus to Hollywood or Santa Monica Piers is very inexpensive with Tap card.

Cute, fun little boutique hotel with nice decor. Came with teen daughter for the close proximity to The Grove. Enjoyed the complimentary coffee in the pretty courtyard each morning. Only downside was the hvac in the room was super loud even on fan mode.
Quiet courtyard is a peaceful place to enjoy the free coffee in the morning!

Great location and very cute but the we selected it for the amenities and all - restaurant, pool and bar were all closed the entire stay for a private party. There was no compensation or discounted rates for the loss of amenities and we were very disappointed.
