Has underground parking

Dirty rooms
Many guests have complained about their rooms not being property cleaned when staying at this hotel. Guests have found hand prints on the walls, mould on the curtains, and dirt everywhere in their rooms and this has made their stays less than enjoyable.
negative:
Old and outdated
There have been complained about the age of the decor and furnishings at this hotel. The property was quite popular during the 1960s and 70s, hosting numerous Hollywood stars during that time. Unfortunately, guests have said that the property doesn't appear to have been updated since then, leaving it old and tired looking.
negative:
Poor breakfast offerings
Past guests have said that the continental breakfast consists of muffins and coffee, which they found to be unacceptable. These guests believe that the hotel should do a little bit more for guests in the morning.
