We recently stayed at this hotel while visiting a sick relative in Cedars-Sinai hospital nearby. Check in was very interesting as all parking is underground. When we pulled in, I parked in the first available spot (which was two levels down) then found out you cannot get to the one elevator without a room key. Pulled all the luggage up two levels to the lobby and check in was fairly quick. The room was noisy (ours was along Santa Monica Blvd) and the person on the floor above us apparently walks around in combat boots at all hours of the night. Breakfast was the standard HI eggs, sausage, cereal, bagels, etc. All of the rooms open into an open courtyard and I never had a safe feeling staying here. For over $200 a night (parking is extra plus all the taxes), I would stay somewhere else even if it meant driving an extra 15-20 minutes to where I was going. Access out of the hotel is right onto Santa Monica Blvd so it is a challenge in the morning to get out of the parking garage.
