The hotel reception is very well decorated. Free coffee and hot chocolate is offered just beside the reception. This is a much better coffee machine than the standard ones usually found directly in the bedrooms of other hotels, giving you more choice and no limits on the number of drinks you may want. Also, the rooms are very spacious and clean and the staff is great.

A minor issue common to many hotels I have seen in the US applies to this one also: for a room that accommodates 4 people, there are only three bath towels ready. This is easily corrected by asking an additional one at the reception, which you might have to ask again after room service has replaced towels.

i picked this Hotel because of the price and it was close to where my son lives. I visited him for three days. The hotel is in an old building. Apparently its been converted from other uses. It is not a five star hotel, but everything works and is very clean, wif-fi and cable TV were excellent, the people at the front desk were very nice and helpful. It was also very quiet. I had no complaints. I will stay there again. There is no breakfast as with many competitors, so I’m going with 4 stars, instead of 5.

Glendale Lodge was extremely accommodating to our arrival time which was close to midnight and was very thorough and friendly during our check-in. Check out was even easier. Everything in the room was very clean, fresh and well stocked for a hotel. Although there was not cleaning service on the weekend days that we were there, there was enough in the room to ensure that we did not need it. There is a dedicated parking lot for the hotel that has a locked gate at night, which felt very secure. The location was about 10 minutes driving from the Rose Bowl and another 10 minutes from Union Station which is where we were trying to situate between, so the location was perfect for us. That being said, you do need a car to get around to most places from this location. But you truly cannot beat the value.

We drove from Colorado to tour college campuses from San Diego to San Francisco. Our trip was on a budget, in order to fit in as much as possible, and everywhere in LA takes at least 30 minutes so the location of this hotel was perfect! You are just off the interstate but you DON’T hear any of the noise! Ralph’s grocery store was 5min away and a Walmart was about 10min away. It is very inexpensive but yet you get a microwave, larger than average fridge, indoor access to your room and secured parking. The parking does cost $10 a night but that’s cheap compared to literally everywhere in LA. So, if you want a room that is quaint, inexpensive and uncontested by the crazy that is LA, give this place a shot!

Coffee machine was great 👍 Room was very clean and spacious. Walking distance to food and shops. 24/7 reception.

Shower device did not work properly as water would still come out of other shower and faucet outlets, resulting in very little water pressure. Also, why have a microwave without any cutlery or plates/bowls?

The big shower and private jacuzzi bath were good. The free coffee machine and flavoured water in reception is great too. Quite close to Universal.

The room was a little dated. The aircon unit is under the curtain which blew the curtain up when on. The room is quite humid because of the spa bath of course, there are extractor fans but theyre old and noisy.

We mainly chose this hotel because of its amazing location. The area is very safe and the hotel has private parking. Concerning the room - it was very simple, quite clean, but the bed was too small, in our opinion. Overall, I would recommend this hotel :)

Quite old hotel, they would need an upgrade :) The bed was quite small.

We like the whole amenities, helpful and friendly staff. Like the free coffee and refreshment. Overall rating of the hotel was excellent

Loud noise when you open the bathroom light due to exhaust

Breakfast was not available. The location was very convenient for our trip andn the hotel was quiet which I always appreciate.

A breakfast would have been very convienent since we needed to be on the road early Sunday morning. We ended up stopping at a grocery store and eating a muffin in the parking lot.

Very quiet and restful, which is the best quality a hotel can offer IMO. Comfy beds, regular pillows. Great size room and amenities. Working elevator and a friendly staff.

Cleaning could improve a lot. Room had a certain odor and sheets and comforter were not very clean.
