It all started with large long black hairs all over rooms and all over pillows Glasses at restaurant have soap stains If you eat outside there are meat wasps that will ruin your food

My dog stepped on glass I called super upset for Neosporin The front desk didn’t even let me finish telling them the issue before routing me to a number that rang and rangRan out of towels and toilet paper twice in one week No room service on anything Spilled on my sheets so I took them outside came back 12 hours later and they took the sheets and cups but didn’t replace themThis place might be cool to drive a couple of balls but the hotel staff is super rude and not even close to hospitableThey literally shoes me away and while my dog was bleeding they accused me of stealing a gold club because I left it behind They made me feel unwelcome and I’ve had extremely better service at a comfort inn Terribly over price and the rooms are outdated

Breanna Meyer

Very disappointed in this place All this place has going for them is it’s pretty They didn’t have room cleaning each day which you don’t find out till you are in your room, they have a sign on the bed

They can’t even bring you fresh towels each day There was no microwave even motel 6 has that Ran out of toilet paper was only there for two days and was only in the room to sleep All hotels at least provide extra roll somewhere When I opened the bed I found some hair on the covers Pillow case had a stain Don’t recommend

Celeste Ramirez

I am not one to leave reviews but I saw way to many reviews saying similar things in regards to their stay and I experienced the same I wish I would have read them before booking my stayThe hotel is very outdated, the rooms are poorly maintained with tons of decaying

No housekeeping Refrigerators in the rooms do not work The Blow dryer was very old and almost dangerous to use as it would spark flame when turned on The toilets would also not flush right away, it took minutes to flush away (close to 10 min of that) The water from the shower would also take minutes to drain They must have some plumbing issues Poor quality and worn out/old bathroom towels Paint scheme/decor over 40 years old This place is NOT a resort or high end hotel and definitely not worth the price Avoid this place

Really glad we choose this hotel It was not the cheapest in the area but the slightly higher cost is worth it The room was of a good standard and very clean

The complimentary breakfast was surprisingly good with many choices including bacon, sausage, eggs, omelets and also waffles and toast, etc There was also many cold options such as cereal, yogurt and fruitsThe hotel has an outdoor pool and a reasonably well equipped gymThe whole place is very clean and modern and the staff seem attentive and professional

D2P Cams

I would like to commend these Three women, Alexis, Natalie and Erica are the most helpful and knowledgable of the front desk staff i have had the privilege to deal with while staying at a hotel they are friendly and should be modeled as exemplary employees I wish everyone was as kind and welcoming as they are

Breakfast is good/consistent and there is something to be said about Reina and Alicia who are amazing as far as keeping up with cleaning and food prep and Hospitality All around a good experience but these people made the stay The outdoor pool is open until 9pm as well as the indoor gym Parking is kind of limited and has Semi parking in the back portion of the parking lot behind Denny’s Thank you to everyone who made my stay enjoyable!!!

Melanie Martinez

We stay here every time be come to cali, breakfast is great, we loved how deep the pool is the good equipment for the gym, but the 2 last times we came, our restrooms locks never lock, room 402 doesn’t lock, 404 does Room 402 had ANTS in the bathroom THE BATHROOM DOES NOT HAVE A FAN, every time you take a shower you are sweating it was like a sauna i had to go out at go near the fan to cool down

First time at hotel Outstanding staff, everyone here were outstanding, friendly, going above and beyond, even the dining staff, breakfast was extremely tasty, omelets to order were spot on Room was spacious, loved the bathroom and shower, all the amenities offered were greatly appreciated

Just outstanding folks here that made my short stay here, memorable Great view from balcony overlooking the mountains in the distance If afforded the opportunity to return to the area, will stay here again

Brad Lee

This place seems great for an event and that’s it Paid extra for a view, that view was of palm trees right at our balcony A/C leaked in the room

I guess they don’t clean rooms at this hotel, while you’re staying If you stay on the weekend during an event good luck on parking Make sure you get parking permit so you don’t get a ticket They failed to give us one Showers are super, super small, my wife is 49ft tall and even she thought they were small Make sure the luggage bell carts tires are not flat before you take it to your room and load up a weeks worth of luggage The value just isn’t there, to make this place worth it A business trip for a night probably very nice A family for 5 days no way!! And make sure the nice nice lady is working before you ask for towels Our you get asked a 1000 questions

April Carrasquillo

Disappointed in the cleanliness and the breakfast The entrance to the hotel is beautiful but the rooms leave a lot to be desired The floors were dirty, the rooms need a deep cleaning and safety locks on the windows

One room we stayed in didn’t even have screens on the windows let alone safety locks to protect children — on the fourth floor I’d like to believe they are short staffed and that is the reason for the unkept state of things but there were often multiple people behind the front desk We’ve stayed at many different Hilton locations — this was the most expensive and the worst one The laundry room is dirty and floods when the washing machine is used So many issuesThe people were kind and changed our room when the first room was dirty and again later after our son vomited in the second We were very thankful for that

ELAINA BLOUNT

We were in town for a dance competition and this was the host hotel This was the worst hotel experience I have ever encountered in a Marriott property This brand is my hotel of choice so to say I was beyond disappointed is an understatement

The entire hotel was filthy and wreaked of smoke and stale air The first suite I checked into was unbearable The second suite was not much better My only choice was to go to the Target next door and buy Clorox, Lysol, and other cleaning supplies and deodorizers and clean the room myself The microwave and refrigerator were disgusting Dried, caked on food and splatters all over Dust everywhere Splatters on the faucet, sink, and mirror The tub looked as though someone had stood in it with muddy shoes Even after cleaning , the tub was still stained I bought comforters that my daughter and I used to sleep on top of the bed, sleeping bag style Luckily I bought Raid and sprayed the room because there were huge roaches and spiders all around Unfortunately this led to DEAD bugs in our room When I complained, the desk clerk said “I’m sorry” and offered me stale snacks Calling the front desk for service was futile so the only recourse was to go to the front desk or catch a housekeeper in the halls Customer service is not at the forefront for the staff This property is severely dated and neglected and definitely reflects poorly on the Marriott brand

Sylvia Lanker

Carpet was stained, looked very dirty, torn in areas The hotel was obviously old, but that wasn’t the problem The carpet should be replaced

No amount of cleaning can help a stained, worn, separating orange carpet The Lobby & courtyard area were okay It was too late to find another hotel, which was what I wanted to do as soon as I started down the hallway Very disappointed Marriott should not have there name on this hotel, it’s deceptive not to state it a very budget hotel with true pictures I would love to post pictures, so others at least know what it looks like Definitely beware of assuming Marriott means a decent place to stay Maybe this is the best it gets in this area Will not recommend or ever stay again 2/5

AJ Dahl

Staff is polite, helpful and accommodating The room was clean and everything worked as expected Its very nice to be able to sign into Netflix on the TV for the kids

Its within walking distance to Knotts Berry Farm, Medieval Times, several restaurants which makes it very convenient Pool was clean and heated We enjoyed our stay and were comfortable I would stay here again and recommend it to family and friends

Very bad experience, the location was ok but terrible service and disgusting room , sheets duty , no iron on the room , the blow dryer burn in my hands , I left my phone charger in the room and I call the office to they send it to me and the guy very disrespectful, he doesn’t want shipping to me and hang up the phone , so I don’t recommend this hotel if you don’t want a bad experience find another much better option, trust me I will never back to “epic hotel” 👎🏻

Don’t stay there unless you want your Catalytic converter stolen We parked in their well lit structure late at night and the next morning it was gone They have absolutely no cameras on their property for your safety besides the lobby

When i told the front desk she didn’t seemed surprised or apologetic as if this is a regular occurrence I understand not wanting to be held responsible but they should at least have cameras for safety or in the event of a crime NEVER staying there again!

Rita Orona

Came a week ago Feb 2022 and we got 3 rooms and everything was nice 👍🏽The receptionist was friendly and assisted us right away! I love that the parking is free and everything was close I have always loved the beds here at the Hilton ❤️ my room was clean and well organized I took a nice bath 🛀 and everything was perfect 👍🏽!I slept peacefully until the woman next door was crying and having an argument with her husband 🤦🏽‍♀️ other than that everything was nice and pleasant !Definitely recommend this hotel 🏨You will get a good nights rest for sure !Also they had a coffee / tea maker and I made myself a cup before checking out ❤️✅

Gwendolyn Mitchell

Had a very good experience staying here The room was very clean and the beds were comfortable and the price was good They gave me and my son some delicious chocolate chip cookies at check in

Kind of torn on how to rate this placePros:-Location is good-Parking is good

-Front desk gentleman was very nice and respectful-Rooms were clean and can tell they were recently updatedCons:-Beds are firm Very firm Me and my brother both noticed this They’re clean and seem to be new, but yeah firm-if your in the first floor, you can hear people walking in there room Nothing crazy but noticeableVery nice place for the price though

Dan Garcia

I wanted a budget motel that didn’t have the scuzzy characters that you would find at a Motel 6, nor did I want a place that catered to people with pets, so Value Inn fits the bill It is nicely maintained on exterior, with lovely rose gardens lining the parking lot The rooms are clean, but not spotless

The TV worked well and the towels were not scratchy There was a little refrigerator in the room where we were able to preserve our take ot food and drinks There is a liquor store right next door( how convenient!) If they had coffee in the motel or the rooms it would have been a plus, but Solid Coffee Roasters, on Bellflower Blvd nearby, has excellent coffee For a good bagel or croissant, go the the iconic Bellflower Bagels, which sports the California Deco giant concrete doughnut on it’s roof There are tons of Mexican, Asian and Mediterranean restaurants in the Greater Long Beach and bars galore, so food and entertainment is plentifulThe motel staff is helpful and pleasant I would stay there again, no problem

We found that this place was located very well for the sightseeing that we wanted to do in Los Angeles It was only 16 minutes from Angels stadium in Anaheim and it was only about 40 minutes from Santa Monica or Hollywood The rooms were well maintained and they offered free breakfast each morning

The staff was friendly and the grounds were well maintained Definitely recommend this place

Jessica Nguyen

I booked a 2 bedroom suit for my family, the hotel is not too old but it’s very used and VERY beaten up and also very filthy: dirty floors dead and live bugs, stain walls and dirty furniture, finger prints all over the appliances and tables, hair on bathroom floors and walls, the bed and pillows had stains… AND the outside of our room door was beyond gross… imagine a cheap motel on a dirty street… same image! I’ve stayed at old, new, non-luxurious hotels before but were always cleaned and up to date… this hotel was probably the worst I’ve stayed in You literally leave the place itching all over I’m not the only review that states how filthy it is

It’s cheap but for a good reason I decided to ignored the other 1 star reviews Lesson learned! Never again!

Ersin Seker

the room that I paid $263 was very small for the cost, there were spiders and bugs, and the AC fan was very noisy Also they gave me the first room close to the highway which it was hard to sleep with all those noises as well Breakfast area was very small and the food was scarce

Seriously there are way better options for half of the cost I’d recommend you to look around for other hotels

We needed to plan an impromptu stay, and the Double Tree delivered! Our car broke down on the freeway, and everyone at Double Tree was so kind and took such great care of us while we stayed overnight to wait for our tow truck Our kids loved the beautiful and conveniently located pool and spa, the room was cool, clean, and comfortable, and the service throughout our staff was kind and wonderful Thanks, Double Tree, for helping us turn it around and make it a great day

John Nite

Nice clean rooms, good food However Management needs to work on looking over the property for maintenance The pool, fitness center and rooms could use some work

Pool water wasn’t as clean as it could be, had bugs and leaves Right away a group of two families huddle around the jacuzzi smoking while holding an infant and two children jumping and splashing The fitness center needs a treadmill and bench fixed And found out our room’s refrigerator door doesn’t close all the way, not keeping the cold in, also the mattress is worn out, sinking in Otherwise, great relaxing time!

Daniel Judas

A very pleasant experience provided by Jessica, who was quick to check my family in with a smile in the early hours of the morning after travelling for almost 24 hours straight She went well above what would normally be expected to ensure we had an enjoyable stay and a positive experience Jessica is an excellent asset to the team at DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Los Angeles – Norwalk

Andrew Dogan

Stayed for four nights on a short family vacation Pros: recently remodeled rooms, friendly staff, decent breakfast Cons: not enough staff to keep the hotel clean; there was a horrible vomit smell near the elevator for almost three days of our stay, pool water was cloudy and full of debris throughout our stay, a used bandaid was stuck on a table by the pool the entire time we were there, and due to hotel allowing guests of the shady Howard Johnson next door to use the hotel’s pool all of the pool towels disappeared

I think the employees are trying but the hotel’s management could do better to pay employees a livable wage as to not have a staff shortage and properly clean and maintain the property to the brand’s standard

Chris Tock (TickTockZoom)

Stayed here for a week and a half, room was very very nice abd recently remodeled, the ac unit was a bit loud The breakfast was always great especially the cinnamon rolls The staff was always friendly and answered any questions

My only cons were the relatively limited parking and that the building has only 1 elevator, so it gets a little cozy during busy times

Kathy C. Parker

Gentleman at the counter was pleasant and professional and got us registered quickly, which is nice after a 6 hour drive Lobby alway smelled fresh, unless it was breakfast time, then it smelled like bacon and eggs The complimentary breakfast has a lot of choices: pancakes, scrambled eggs or omelets, bacon, sausage, oatmeal, cereal, cinnamon rolls, orange juice, coffee, yogurt, fresh fruit, bagels and more

No screens on windows, so we could not open the windows to let cool air inNo fan in bathroom, which is a must Wifi was super slow or did not workWhen I booked room, I asked to be away from elevator, we were 2 doors from it We had to call room service for an issue and they responded very quickly Yes, I would stay here again

I came to LA for a 2 week holiday with my girlfriend We shopped around for a hotel to stay This place caught my eye with only a few bad reviews

And wow it lives up to expectations The room we got looked like it could be at a luxury hotel, the check-in was timely and very welcoming The only thing that tripped them up was the pin number but very minor issueThe manager ws always around and whenever we rung to ask them something they answered promptly and professionallyAs a kiwi I was unaware I had to request room service but the manager called and explained how it works They also work into whatever time of the day suits10/10 would stay here again and also recommend it to others

8-day stay during July 4th, 2022 long weekend & high season for summer travel: I would definitely stay here again; this is probably my 7th time over the last few years staying hereI did not plan to stay at any hotel I planned to stay at a friend‘s home but there was a terrible plumbing issue that affected the electricity issue and even my friend had to find somewhere else to stay

So at the last minute I was looking for a place to stay for eight consecutive days I had some Airbnb options; however, since I had favorable experiences with Friendly Hills Inn in the past I thought maybe I would get lucky to find eight consecutive days where I could get to stay in the same room without having to move aroundThe front desk staff was very helpful in assisting me to get what I wanted and they honored the military rate which I really appreciated I do feel safe at this hotel, Friendly Hills Inn in Whittier, CA It’s easy to get into and out of and the rooms themselves are very comfortableI like the different lighting options even though I do bring my own nightlight for the bathroom sink area The air conditioner works very nicely and in a quiet manner There’s a microwave, a medium-sized mini fridge as well as a small coffee maker The hotel room is modern contemporary and there’s a variety of softer and harder pillows so depending on if you want to sit up in bed against the bed frame or lay down you have options I like that the light switch to turn off the main lights and the lamp is right next to the bedAmenities about nearby including restaurants shopping etc there are delicious made-from-scratch soups at the “California Grill Restaurant”, and I did enjoy Huevos a la Mexicana at “Mr Giants”Discovered a great store called Upscale Collectibles on Greenleaf; a wonderful collection of gently used furniture, jewelry, books, clothing, shoes, dish ware, linens and more Great people work thereSo I will definitely stay here again at Friendly Hills Inn in Whittier, CA Again I had the option to stay at an Airbnb which I had booked just in case this hotel wasn’t available for eight consecutive days but having both options available, Friendly Hills Inn and the Airbnb, I decided to choose Friendly Hills Inn and that’s a win-win for both myself as well as the good people who run it The owners are quite nice and professional I will definitely stay here again Thank you Friendly Hills Inn! Susie 🙂👍🏻

The pics they have posted on Priceline look way better than the rooms actually are, which was disappointing But they price is affordable, and they don’t require any deposit if you pay with credit card The water pressure sucks, and then I was woken up by the workers pounding next door!! Which really sucked

They should have told us that there would be loud noise early morning!? And I wouldn’t have stayed

I have stayed at this hotel a few times before COVID It is a nice building with spacious and clean rooms The bar and restaurant are open but with limited hours which is better than nothing

The breakfast buffet is very limited and nothing to write home about but they have Starbucks coffee The bar staff is prompt and efficient We didn’t have dinner there so I can not comment on the food Overall it was a positive experience

Joanna Perez

We traditionally stay at another hotel brand but decided to give Marriott Sheraton a try as it was close to a venue we were attendingDecor of the hotel is nice, modern and bright Rooms was the same and didn’t appear to be run down

We arrived on a Thursday and asked for our room to be cleaned at the front desk on Friday We came back to the room very late & exhausted to find housekeeping didn’t comeAs we left on Saturday morning we asked the front desk to have the room cleaned because it wasn’t done as requested The front desk was very kind and radioed the housekeeping staff right away to have it cleaned for the dayWe got back to hotel at 4pm and still no housekeeping – we approached the housekeeping staff in the hallway and asked can we bring our trash to be emptied, get coffee and get new towels The person said we were not on the list to clean and she has to see if they can take our trashI brought the 3 very full trash cans from my room down the hall and emptied them myself, grabbed the towels I needed, and asked her for coffee which she rudely gave them to meNeedless to say, our experience with housekeeping wasn’t good, I expect our hotel room to be cleaned when asked for a 3 night stay and even with how nice the decor looked and the kindness of the front desk we won’t choose this hotel again

I booked four nights When we arrived the room (324) they gave us had no working AC, and the phone didn’t work to call the front desk about it So they moved us to 330

The next day we went and explored LA When we got back in the afternoon, our keys didn’t work, and a privacy sign was hung on the door I went to the front desk and she had no idea what was going on After continuously asking, she admitted that they put someone else in our room I asked where our bags and stuff were and she had no idea She said the manager was on her way When the manager arrived it was not the manager It was the person who took our stuff out of our room They refunded us, but we had to find another hotel and Uber there We were out half a day, stranded with our bags trying to find a room I’ve never been treated so bad by a hotel

2 stars because the guy at the front desk was nice and helpful But when we arrived a homeless person without a shirt search for food in the garbage right in front of our room’s door Then we had to call someone because the very same person took a bath in the pool

We decided to no let the kids in the pool after that We informed the front desk about that incident and he offered us 20 % discountThe breakfast was a disaster The room for breakfast is far too small I know Best Western but the food was exceptionally bad here We had to eat in the room because there was no space left Next time we book another hotel and have a breakfast somewhere else

Place is convenient to stay Right off the 605 Beds are comfortable t

v is nice Great movies especially on Saturday The bad thing is that I only see security on Friday night People are always hanging out in their cars that don’t have a room Housekeepers and I mean a few, that favor certain guests And I guess now their lazy to clean I was told they are going to charge $200 for stains on the sheets Like light pink hair dye Normally if you use bleach it will come out So this tells me they don’t really sanitize and keep it clean If I’m spending almost $125 for a room, I’m not giving them another $200 The lady that said this, her name is Sarai

I love this little hotel It’s a great escape to the busy real world The staff are absolutely amazing, I come herd often and it’s always nice that they remember me and make the room the way I like it

The Jacuzzi room is the best at a great price It’s very quite and comforting Chris the manager pays special attention to details and makes sure any problems are fixed immediately If your in town check it out

Our family have a great experience at this hotel I am a new Hilton Honors member an the staff made our stay very enjoyable from check in to check out Our room was very clean, beds were comfortable with extra bedding provided

Furniture wasn’t outdated and the room had great size We also enjoyed the hot complimentary breakfast, which on this day consist of waffles, eggs, potatoes and turkey sausage It also included your normal cereal, Danish, toast, juice and coffee Check out was a breeze so overall great stay

The property is in a great location Just minutes drive from Knotts Disney is more of a 20 -30 minute drive depending on highway traffic

ADVICE: Avoid rooms near the elevator on every floor We even had a room separate us from the elevator on the second floor & still heard the elevator hydraulics at all hours of the night We heard the guy in the next room snoring Other than that, our stay was great Nice pool & hot tub Parking & property felt safe The free breakfast is great Hot breakfast options; eggs, sausage, waffles👍🏻👍🏻 Our first stay was even better We had a room on the first floor High ceilings, big room, extremely quiet

Jennifer Rivera

Great location right off the freeway Our room was very clean and smelled clean when we walked in Our room was very big and spacious

They have free breakfast daily from 6-10 which includes a variety of things like, juices, coffee, hot chocolate, oatmeal, eggs, bacon or sausage, baked muffins, breads for toast, bagels, cold cereal, yogurt, some fruit, and station for waffles and all of the fixings We had a great experience and staff was friendly
