Guest Reviews

• Magno (10/5): Excelente custo benefício - Atendimento cordialidade atenção e muito mais, iria ficar somente um dia e acabei extendendo para mais 2 Nada
• Daneyll (6/5): - Walking distance to Ralphs Cold shower
• Angela (8/5): It was good would stay again - Close to where I had to be Parking
• M (8/5): -
• Jenny (9/5): -
• Geoffrey (7/5): Adequate for one night stay - Located opposite shopping centre with large food court which offered good choice at reasonable prices. An older motel which is showing signs of age. Spacious and comfortable rooms which were adequate for us. Flexibility of reception staff lacking in dealing with early check in.
• Davila (10/5): -
• Andrea (3/5): It was decent wouldn’t stay again - I liked the onsite parking The front desk/staff weren’t friendly or inviting, bathroom had random strands of hair
• Somjai (4/5): Didn’t expected to stayed as long as we did -
• EUN JOO (7/5): - 코리아타운과 가까운 점. 차소리가 안나서 조용한 점, 무료주차 가능한 점. 화장실에 곰팡이가 있어서 씻으면서 좀 꺼림직했음. 좀 더 세심하게 관리해주었으면 더 좋았겠다. 그리고 샤워커튼도 교체하면 더 좋을 듯
• morelia (7/5): -
• Yu (6/5): -
• Lisa (7/5): It was good if you want to walk to certain stuff in k town. - I liked that it had parking, elevator and was across from a Korean town plaza. I wish there was more parking.
• Guiling (8/5): Great for a night stay, but having asthma the room recked of strong bleach it made the stay bad - I did not like that the room recked of strong bleach.
• becerra (7/5): -
• Kang (9/5): -
• M (5/5): - Está en frente de la Koreatown Plaza. El depósito era de 200 dlls, salía más caro que la propia habitación.
• Jeremy (2/5): - Hardly said two words to me. Didn’t direct me where my room was. Not helpful.
• Tania (2/5): - They had no available parking. The night security guard was so rude. They was no help and when I expressed how inconvenient it was that they had no parking available he said “if you don’t like it go book somewhere else. Some were more fancy or just park in the street. You’ll see how safe it is on the morning”. Mind me I had no way of getting a refund and the picture on the website were not factual. Horrible experience. Only stayed one night. Check in @11pm and checked out @8am
• julie (10/5): So Clean! Would stay here again. - So CLEAN! This place was great for an overnight near the Wiltern Theater. Stayed in one of the suites with 3 beds which was perfect. Beds were comfy, and the place was spotless! Furniture has been updated since the photos were taken. There was plenty of parking when we arrived at 6pm on a Saturday night. And the hotel was quiet too - didn’t hear any noise from neighbors or in the hallways. Great place to stay!
• Elisabeth (2/5): - DO NOT STAY HERE. My car was broken into and ransacked. The staff are nice people, but all they will is tell you is that a manger will call and then they don't. I chose to leave as soon as the incident happened and simply wanted a refund on the nights I would not be staying. They kept my money just like the thieves took things from my car. Stay at your own risk as there is no help if something happens to you.
• John (4/5): - The price point is great. But this one of the worst hotels ever,that I have stayed in
• Jesus (10/5): - The food in the mall In front is perfect
• Maria Lucy (2/5): - No water
• Brenda (8/5): - Great location for our show at the Wiltern. And the bed was so comfortable.
• YOUNG (10/5): - great budget hotel. clean room. clean sheets. good soft bed. strong quiet air conditioner. mirror, frig, microwave. hot water. nice tv. parking. mall across the street. low traffic. check in guy was a little suspicious of me, but i would be too!
• Maria (2/5): - Great location but that was about it. The rooms were old, and ugly. Cleanliness was alright. There was an older guy at the front desk who was just the rudest staff I’ve ever encountered at hotel. Honestly overpriced for what it is.
• Glan (4/5): - The man that works there was very rude
• Raul (10/5): - Room was satisfactory, came with tv fridge and microwave. You have to request an iron at the front desk. Free underground parking right next to the entrance. Property is right next to korean plaza and restaurants which is real convenient.
• Horlando (8/5): - It was good, only the guy at the front desk not to friendly
• Citlalic (10/5): - Convenient area, right across the mall. Free parking, plenty of spots.
• Carol (8/5): - The hotel is located in a very centric location. The rooms have enough space, it would be great if they had more power outlets and iron in the room ( we have to request at the reception so not big deal). The bed is very comfortable and free parking is a really good benefit.
• Trujillo (8/5): -
• Winfield (10/5): - It was comfortable safety and nice sleeping over there
• May Myat noe (2/5): - Service not good
• Kelly (10/5): - Good locations
• Katell Lemousse (8/5): -
• Steven (8/5): - The property was very clean. I need to mention that first. Very very clean. But everything is very outdated. The chairs and desks look like they are from the 90s and they are very used up/nicked. But the floors were clean. The bed sheets were clean and smelled fresh. But the one thing i didn't like was they would turn off the AC while they cleaned the room. Id come back to a very very humid room. The TV was new, still had the film on the border of it. The mini fridge and microwave were good as well. Definitely not enough outlets, would be nice if they replaced some of the lamps with ones that have outlets
• Wai Yan (8/5): - Location is good. Rooms were jus average budget rooms
• Sooyeon (10/5): - Good
• Jin Kyoo (10/5): - 친절한 호텔, 편리한 주변 환경
• Miriam (8/5): - Comfortable for a one-night stay, but there were some issues. Parking is very limited if the lot is full, you’ll need to park on the street.
• Jesus (10/5): - Perfect area.
• Nicole (6/5): - PROS: Check in staff was very friendly, sociable. He and I had a chat and he was very nice to let me know the parking tends to fill up after 8pm. It's free, plenty of spots in my opinion in the underground garage, however if you are a night owl, then spaces will fill up and you have to pay to park on the street. It was a quiet stay - never heard a neighbor except for doors shutting once and a while. Comfortable bed. CONS: Room was DIRTY. I'm low maintenance/non complainer, but the floor was dirty - my feet were black. There was disgusting yellow sticky substance on the drapes. The bathroom had tiny ants everywhere. I killed them every day until I realized they came from the flood drain in the sink and I plugged it up. Sheets/pillow cases clean but stained!
• George (8/5): - I'm not fussy, don't need a 5 star hotel. I just want something clean with good wifi and close to me trip's needs. Rotex meet them all for me.
• Charlene Averie (4/5): - large gap underneath our door, didn’t feel safe. not very clean. not awful, but not ideal. tv didn’t work.
• elizabeth (10/5): - Pleasant stay. Enough parking. Rooms were clean
• Junghwan (10/5): - This place was cozy and have good beds with decent size. Parking lot was easy to find and has large space. The staff was kind and informative. But, the corner or the surafce on the shelves was dirty, even though many peoples wouldn't care about it.
• Zhongcheng (4/5): - The shower was broken. When we woke up the next morning, lots of ants in the bathroom and around the door. Some got into our suitcases. When mentioned these to the guy at check out, he was not even apologetic. Will never stay here again
• James (8/5): - Old hotel but good location, valuable
• Parker (2/5): - For $200 a night, this stay was really disappointing. I’ve stayed in plenty of inns before, but this was definitely the worst one so far. The first thing I noticed was that the walls were dirty and chipped, which already made the room feel run-down. Then in the bathroom shower, I saw a bug. I tried to overlook it, but pretty quickly I realized the sink and bathroom door were covered in ants. Since it was really late and I had already unpacked, I just decided not to use the bathroom and went to bed Then around 8 a.m., I woke up to housekeeping being very loud. I then realized my room was right next to the laundry room, which explained all the banging and people being loud. When I told the front desk about the bugs on my way out, all I got was a quick “oh, sorry,” Overall, I really expected more for the price. This was not a good experience, and I wouldn’t stay here again.
• ALEX (10/5): - Everything ok
• Derik (10/5): - Right across the street from the korean mall
• D (8/5): - The location is good. Right across the street from Koreatown Plaza. Water and coffee in front hotel lobby area.Room was clean. Good A/C in room. Room had a fridge. No iron or ironing board in room. Must call front desk to request to use iron. Slept comfortably, not a lot of noise. Felt safe. Good parking, garage is below hotel. Parking garage did have a leak from pipes overhead and water dripping in garage .Staff said they were working on having that fixed. No problems. Short drive to BMO stadium. Would stay again.
• Carmelita (8/5): - It was a quite nice and clean
• Irene (6/5): You get what you paid for - Free parking, microwave and refrigerator in the room. More silent than expected. Bathroom was clean and heat water pressure were good. Rooms and furniture inside them are outdated and sheets were stained the first day I got into the room. The front desk man came at 9:50am knocking my door the morning I had to check out asking if I was indeed gonna do the check out and I replied that yes but deadline was until 11am and I was getting ready. He was speechless for a second while looking up and down (as I was still in pyjamas) and came out with a silly question that sounded like an excuse more than anything. That was really disgusting, never in my life happened something like that the day I had to leave an accommodation. Day time staff was like that, not really friendly and barely spoke english. Although parking was free, there wasn’t anyone physically watching the cars overnight but I think they had it monitored (yet it felt unsafe somehow). Overall, it’s a budget hotel so i’m not surprised but next time I will definitely stay in a better place.
• Katherine (10/5): - It was central enough for me to get around and get the stuff that I needed. I’ll stay there again for sure
• Kathleen (2/5): - The place was in a great location but room facilities were dirty. It was very muggy, but I think it comes with old buildings. The floors were full of dust and hairballs (lots of them) and there was a brown mark on one of the pillow cases. Having piles of someone's hair all over the floor and couch was gross. The brown mark was a stain, but I was worried about the cleanliness of the place. Most concerning was that there was man in the garage pulling the doors open to see what was open. I asked the front office person about the safety of area and he said it is what it is. Also, they take a 200 deposit because apparently the tenants tend to trash the place. This was another red flag, it is likely that this is the reason that the place was so dirty. The location is across from the HMart, which is the convenient. We left after 2 hours of checking in.
• Dalia Paola (10/5): - Nice area. So many food options.
• Nuguid (9/5): -
• Anna L (8/5): - Hotel is old , it is in a convient location right across the street for k town plaza . The bed was too firm for me. Overall just a place to rest after I flew for a concert.
• Jennifer (6/5): - The location of the hotel is really nice if you're a fan of K-culture, food, and K-pop since there are two plazas/malls within walking distance. However, the hotel is just okay in terms of everything else. The wifi would be really finicky in our room and could only be captured if you were to go out into the courtyard. The laundry room was right in front of our room so from 7am until 2pm everyday, we would be berated with the loud sounds of the washer. There were numerous ants and spiders EVERYWHERE; the floor, tables, bathroom, and even my bed! But housekeeping was very attentive and very quick. Not a bad place for a very temporary stay but beware of the ants!!
• Maria (10/5): - Love this hotel
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Internet connection could have been better. But otherwise was a convenient and cozy stay for a weekend. Staff was very friendly and helpful during checkin. Garage parking was a huge plus. Best location for a central LA trip and had a ton of shopping/ late night food options nearby. Would recommend!
• Scott (8/5): - This is a very nice and clean property. It's only drawback comes more from the neighborhood in Los Angeles. I think that thinks will improve in the near future.
• Jocelyn (8/5): -
• Josue (10/5): - H Mart across the street. Close to exposition park.
• Luisa (8/5): - Although we had a great time, there were things from previous guests in the room. Also was disappointed there was no water on property, and ants in the communal kitchen area.
• Sebastian (10/5): - Excellent service. There are a lot of restaurants and shopping areas around the hotel.
• Young ae (6/5): - Parking is free , good!
• Laarni (8/5): - .
• Adrianne (10/5): - My boyfriend and I were only there for a short time, but the stay was great! It was very clean and quiet, and the staff were very kind. It’s a decent walking distance from a variety of eateries and right across the street from a grocery store. It was very convenient that there was parking included on the property.
• a (2/5): - Terrible experience. While the parking was convenient, everything else was unacceptable. The facilities are basic at best, the air conditioner is unbearably loud, and the soundproofing is virtually nonexistent. We couldn’t sleep at all. To make matters worse, the couple upstairs had loud sex multiple times during the night, causing the bed to shake violently and making absurd levels of noise — once around 11 p.m., and again at 4 a.m. This place is absolutely not suitable for anyone looking for a quiet or restful stay. Avoid if you value your sleep.
• Gaochia (8/5): - The staff was kind and courteous as well as the lobby was welcoming. There was free overnight parking and we were within walking distance from a shopping center which was convenient. The room was fairly clean but the AC unit smelled sour and a live roach was found. The water heater was inconsistent- turning extremely hot or cold. We could hear pipes running off and on from our room.
• Victoria (8/5): - The main perks of this hotel lie in its proximity to Koreatown/dining and shopping malls, and the surprisingly stellar lack of noise. Despite being on a busy street, our room had no sound of any traffic or loud celebrations from the street, and no noise from surrounding rooms (though I'm not sure how much of the latter is due to soundproofing and how much is due to other visitors being quiet/respectful). Something to note: they do not have fold-out luggage holders, and our room did not have any outlets by the bed for charging phones (though there were outlets by the desk).
• David (4/5): Noisy hotel. - Not good. It was so noisy. The room was next to the main Street. And there were men been talking all night.The AC was old and noisy.I don’t recommend this hotel for a family trip.
• Larry (10/5): -
• Leah (10/5): - Bed was dirty when we arrived but we asked front dest for new sheets so it was a non issue. Pleasant stay.
• Verified traveler (4/5): LUGGAGE CHARGES AND RUDE STAFF - Reservation made for my son and his buddy. They arrived early and asked for early check in and was given a firm and unpleasant NO. Asked if they could leave their luggage to be held for safety purposes and they agreed - that was nice. When asked for clerk's name so he could address him propertly, he was rudely asked "WHY do you want MY name?". Two reservations were made at separate times and when asked if they could stay in the same room, they were told no. When asked if they could leave their luggage again for safekeeping, they were charged a $25 fee. This is unheard of. We had two prepaid reservations with confirmations and were changed a baggage holding fee? Never again. Water pressure is terrible Will NEVER book at this location ever again. Beware.
• Jarme (9/5): A great, affordable option if you simply need a place to stay - If you need a place to rest your head and don't care about extra amenities, the Rotex Western Inn is a great choice. There is an H-Mart across the street with a food court next to it for food and supplies too.
• Jordan (10/5): - Comfortable and clean!
• Ashlie (8/5): - It was a nice property. Spacious room that was clean.
• Elizabeth (10/5): - They are very understanding when we first arrive when we were running late due our trains of the Amtrak delays
• Clement (10/5): - Good people
• Nathan (6/5): - What I liked about the room is how cold I want it to be. What I didn't like about the room is how I found a big roach came crawling out from underneath one of the pillows.
• Sonny (6/5): - Accessible to restaurants and free parking
• Kayla (4/5): - I appreciate the return of the $200 deposit coming back immediately after check out. However, they were hair strands in my bed when checking the room. Scratches all over the walls and furniture. The pillows for the headboard weee dusty at the top. Room seemed empty like they should add a chair to the corner with nothing in it. Room needed to be swept. More worth $275 for a 4 night trip than a $475 hotel.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Short visit - 2 night stay Very quiet and good location free parking
• Sandra (4/5): - Staff member ver rude on check in
• gerald (2/5): - fromt desk clerk have an attitude
• Tseveenravdan (10/5): - It was safe area
• Liris (8/5): - Place was very clean and nice. No early check in was available. You had to walk to front desk every time if you needed to get something like washcloths or an iron. Wish their coffee machine was complimentary. Loved the complimentary parking though. Felt safe.
• Genesis (2/5): - Smelled
• Cabardo (7/5): Good -
• Michael (2/5): - Dirty
• Amy (10/5): - Incredibly comfortable and cozy hotel! 24 hour front desk attendants are so king
• Bulent (2/5): - Awful hotel. Friendly staff though. The bathroom was crawling with ants. The bed linens and pillows were dirty. The window cracks were filled with dust and dirt. Wouldn't recommend.
• Tam (8/5): - Nice area with groceries & restaurants within walking distance. Free parking garage is very helpful.
• Anthony (6/5): - Good for short stays and quick trips
• Jose (6/5): - Everything is good except fir shower on my room need new
