LA regular stop”
We come to LA often, like K town and will use Uber or the Metro if we're drinking. This hotel is perfect. It's safe, clean, provides parking, and right near Ralphs, Wilshire stop, and dozens of great restaurants. Whether we're going to West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, or downtown, this place is right in the middle of everything. And of course, who does not want to be in Ktown for dinner!

Deposit request”
I had paid full price of room charge in advance . They asked deposit of U$ 200 in cash or U$ 100 in credit card. and Checking counter added the credit card refund may take one month time to get refund . so ask to refund U$ 200 in cash. Its very funny, and strange to ask this very strange refund system.
This is very old building. Window is so sold. You may have experienced noisy from outside

Unsafe Location with Poor Security”
My girlfriend and I stayed in a King Suite at the hotel for 4 nights. During that time the Wi-Fi did not work properly so I had no internet connection to my laptop. The staff tried to fix the problem, but finally had to hire a specialist, who was to come the day after we left. Therefore I could not do important business work, find good restaurants, or even check-in for our flight to China! The water to the shower was also regulated so we were never able to take a hot shower, only a warm one! Finally on the last day we left our luggage with them in a supposedly locked and secure room. Her expensive Louis Vuitton bag with her jewelry and clothes was stolen along with hotel property. The Los Angeles police have the two thieves on video, but said they are unlikely to be caught or the property recovered. The hotel owner refused to take responsibility for the theft, refused to file a claim with his insurance company for our loss, and offered nothing for the loss or inconvenience! Beware!!

Disappointing reality”
Staff were pretty good
My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights. We booked a king suite room. All photos looked great and reviews were not terrible. Upon checking in to our room. The room was tiny! Very small (half a meter either side of the bed and that was the whole room). This was bareble except that the room smelt dosguisting. A strong odour of something bad! And the room was generally unclean.
Staff service was ok. Foyer is nice enough. Rooms... not good!

Nice hotel in Koreatown”
Location, free parking and good value of money
The hotel allowed us to keep our luggage for a week when we travelling around the west coast. Its so helpful for us because its a bit hard to travelling around with big suitcase.
The staff are nice and friendly. They also have a free parking spot if you bring/rent a car.
I would recommend this hotel for those who want to explore central LA aside the Hollywood. Its more reachable to the LAX airport, St. Monica and Culver City.
There also a nice Louisiana seafood nearby called the Boiling Crab that you should try, there is queue to this rest before their opening time.

Glad to have chosen this hotel”
Safe location in LA especially good location at Koreatown, Close to many restaurants and public transportation, Attentive staff
A really pleasant stay at the Garden Suite Hotel as the location is superb in terms of food, public transportation, safety and also commodities (24hr CVS nearby). The staff is very helpful and friendly when we arrive early before check-in time and provide us places to store our luggage and also tips on good restaurants and nearest transportation lines. The security staff who did the patrolling at each floors at night helped us to return our key that is left outside the door to the lobby staff downstairs and she informed us int the morning. The room is very clean and comfortable.

Close to the Wiltern, Metro Purple line, and Ralphs is across the street
This was a good place to stay near the Wiltern at a very reasonable price. a quick walk down the block from the venue. There's a Ralphs market across the street to get anything you need and it's close to lots of fun things to do in Korea Town.

Nice Staff, Comfortable Room, Cleanliness
We enjoyed our stay it was great value for money. We loved the Korean BBQ around the corner it was delicious. Easy access to trains and buses so didnt mind staying a little bit out of Hollywood, Downtown LA and Beverly Hills. It was kind of centrally located but just on the outskirts. Hotel staff let us leave our luggage at the reservation desk until we were ready to collect and check out so that we could enjoy our day out without having to drag our luggage around.

The King of All Catfish ”
Seeing as how this hotel was $200 a night, I expected a lot more. The lobby of the hotel promised more. The lobby has a beautiful crystal chandelier and grand stair case, a well kept bar and friendly looking staff. But once you go upstairs, the hallways are hot, the walls are covered in mismatched carpet, the room was so old the wall paper and the door in the bathroom were warped and the only decoration was a mismatched, off center plaque in the bedroom area that quoted a beetles song. This hotel was a catfish. The online photos and the lobby promised so much more than what the room delivered.
