This is a convenient location if you are visiting UCLA since it is only a half block from the southern end of the campus (nearest the medical school). This is clearly an older hotel that hasn't been updated for a while but it was comfortable and we had a good night's rest. You won't be bowled over by charm, but if you are just using it as a place to sleep that doesn't matter.
There is a "continental breakfast" near the lobby. It was not very appetizing, with some bagels and mini-muffins, single serve boxes of cereals, and coffee. There were packages of cream cheese for the bagels. I am not sure why there was only apple and grape jelly, rather than more popular jams such as strawberry. Perhaps they were on special that week at Smart and Final. There was no butter and no plates (only bowls). For the price it seemed like they could have taken a bit more trouble.
