A LONG five blocks from the closest Metro stop, area goes from OK to not so good pretty fast. Corner liquor store has a bulletproof glass cage for the cashier, but this bock did not feel particularly unsafe, just depressing. The staff is very polite and prompt to respond to requests. The room looked sad and weary but the bed... more

Read the other reviews and I have to admit I was a little apprehensive to stay here. However the price was great and so was the location. In fact, it was so good we have now stayed here twice. The staff was very friendly on both stays and helpful with directions and tips. Rooms are clean with dorm type refrigerators.... more

Downtown LA dont go there if you want to feel safe walking around at night.We found we had to do all of our trips and be back early because all the seedy charactors come out after dark. more

The hotel is very grand and very beautiful, however it's location was less than appealing. I felt unsafe once outside of the hotel and whether that was just my impression or actually was the case, didn't change the fact that I didn't feel able to go out after dark.

This hotel is suffering from neglect and poor management. I have worked in the hotel industry for many years and have never seen a so called 3 star hotel look in this bad a shape.It is in a not so great neighborhood in downtown LA. Our first room was on the tenth floor and as soon as we got off... more

The only good thing about this hotel is that it was clean. This hotel was old, and not old in a good way. You can tell that there hasn't been any major renovations since it's opened. There were holes in the walls and carpet, leak marks on the ceiling and chips in the furniture. more

My boyfriend and I have stayed at the Mayfair Hotel for 7 nights. While he was out during the daytime at the LA Convention Center, I explored the city on my own. First of all, the hotel is a 15 min. walk to the metro station and a 20 min. walk to the Convention Center, Nokia Theater, and Staples Center.... more

Where do I start?? The front desk is barely courteous and not at all helpful. Found it disturbing that upon check-in you are given a sheet with a disclaimer stating the hotel is not responsible for any items you keep in your room during your stay! The rooms are tiny and the double bed is two twins shoved together. There... more

Pros - Near Staples Center - Cheap rates - Staff is friendly, mainly to make up awful facility Cons - Rooms were small and filthy - Bathroom small and shower was too small to use - Unsafe location, really UNSAFE The Mayfair Hotel really meant it when they said Old World hotel. First off, the hotel is near the LA... more
