Los factores antes expuestos me han dejado muy afectado en volver a este hotel
Mildew smell in room/great staff/bad location

Neighborhood is not good. I know that is not fault of hotel. Horrible mildew odor hits you when you enter room. Staff was great and very friendly. Hotel right next to freeway so noise is an issue also.
Good Value

This is an older building. The rooms are not as big or as nice as many newer properties, but that is to be expected. It is a good value and I am glad we stayed here, but I knew beforehand that it was an older property.
I don't like paying for parking, but it was disclosed at time of booking, at time of arrival and upon departure so there were no surprises. It would have been nice of the parking had been more secure since it was not complementary.
It is relatively quiet, but it is on a very busy road and next door to a movie theater. Our room overlooked the theater and we could hear noisy people in line for the late showing. Again, to be expected.
Poor Value, Expensive Parking, Bad Wifi

Location is great. Parking is expensive. Doesn't matter if you're Spire Elite, no discount. Also, WiFi sucks and I did not have a successful 10 minutes straight connection at one point to do anything for work. I addressed this on checkout, staff apologized and I received a call and email from Joshua after. He offered 7k IHG points for the inconvenience and called back that it'll be 10k points. I was thankful, but 5 days after his promise of points, I emailed him to followup and never got a response back and up to this day, never saw the points. The interior of the hotel rooms look like something you'd expect if you're paying only 1/3 of what they're charging. They're very expensive with very little to offer, except for location. They wasted my phone time and email time, expecting them to do as they've promised about the points.
Excellent place to stay

The two friends I was traveling with and I have been frien.ds since the 6th grade, which is over 60 years! We always have a lot to talk about and to laugh about. We appreciated having such a nice, clean, room in which to do so. This hotel's proximity to the Getty Museum was appreciated, also.
Great service and friendly hotel

We had an enjoyable stay at the hotel. Service was wonderful and breakfast was sufficient. The room was clean, spacious and quiet. The hotel is within easy access to UCLA and the Getty Center. We would choose this hotel again when we return to the area.
Great location, great service

A friend and I decided to go to Santa Monica to take in the local sites, the beach, the Wednesday Farmer's Market and the Self Realization Temple. This Holiday Inn Express was in a good location. Upon checking in the desk staff told us of places to eat within walking distance. Also they gave us a printed map of the exact location of the Farmer's Market. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the breakfast always has a good selection to satisfy everyone's tastes.
Great service, clean and comfortable.

In addition to the fine service we also liked the fact that its location was so accessible to major highways, roads and parking. The hotel was easy to find and was a good location for us to go touring from. Having the parking lot with valet parking right there was extremely helpful and something that even some of the five star hotels in town were not offering.
Great service, nice hotel.

Staff was exceptional. Front desk was courteous and professional, parking lot attendant was helpful and pleasant, housekeeping staff was cheerful and accommodating, breakfast staff was very attentive. A manager (Joshua) went out of his way to get us some directions to a local attraction.
Hotel is located on a busy corner and access in and out can be restricted by traffic. Inside the hotel is well kept and quiet. The breakfast area is open air and quite nice.
excellent

Great staff, musty first floor

When we checked in, our room on the first floor had a very strong smell of mold coming from the air conditioning. We also heard another guest on the first floor complaining of this and asking to be moved. We were moved to another room on the first floor for our first night, which had a similar but slightly less odor, but still had to sleep uncomfortably without the A/C on. On our two subsequent nights we were moved to the fourth floor, where the room was completely free of odor.
The staff was very helpful and receptive to our needs, and everything else about the hotel was excellent. If the first night hadn't been so traumatic, I would have been easily able to recommend this hotel.
Great Service, great accommodations and safety

My family and I had a great stay at the hotel. Very Comfortable bed, with a very large TV screen. Very roomy accommodations, and felt safe when my family and I walked from the hotel to a local restaurant around the corner. Hotel staff was very helpful in answering questions about the hotel community. The hotel was within close proximity to travel to Venice Beach and hitting the shopping mall a few miles away.
