Little River State Beach Tours

Fabulous upscale hotel with friendly, helpful staff.

The hotel has a convenient location to Hollywood Blvd., however a few things weren’t best. First, our room was not clean when checking in. The side table next to the bed had splash stains not wiped up; one towel was questionable in the bathroom as it was the only towel not properly folded as the others were - it seemed to be just thrown on the rack… didn’t risk using it given the side table mess. Secondly, the parking rates are straight extortion. $95 a night for an SUV - find street parking! Lastly, not really the fault of the hotel, but LA has a ridiculous “tax” in addition to all the other hospitality taxes, just for employee “safety.” Cleaning people can’t clean more than 200 square feet or something ridiculous per day - probably why the rooms weren’t the cleanest. That’s an additional hit on consumers bill, so check the total rate to make sure that’s included. I was not expecting it. Other than that, there’s a nice (very small) pool. Nice views. The rooms were ok, bathrooms are nice aesthetically, and not too many homeless right next to the hotel. It’s a 3 for me.
