I spent six nights at this wonderful little motel (room doors open to the outdoors). Commitments took me from downtown LA to Santa Clarita & Santa Barbara, so this was a perfect central location & so close to Burbank Airport. The refrigerator & microwave served well for restaurant leftovers, the room was clean, the bed so comfortable, the soaps, shampoos and lotions were lovely, & the staff treated me like family. The only things missing were an alarm clock and a tall closet for dresses, but wake up calls and door hooks made up for those. The price is the best for the value in Burbank.

Her stay was wonderful. The rooms were clean and staff was wonderful. Next time when we go to Universal Studios I'll make sure we stay at that hotel again. Some of the hotels around Universal are not the best as we have reserved a few and knew we would never go back to them again.

This is advertised on many sites as a hotel. It is most definitely not. While the lack of amenities, this was a standard motel. Pros- -our room was clean. -No neighbor sharing a wall -Plenty of hot water -Water pressure ok. -had a ac unit -Plug on lamp to charge phone by bed. -Conveniently located -Had a Fridge -Had a microwave -Lots of stations on the TV -Ice machine -Soda machine -Continental breakfast. -Plenty of parking. Cons - -Our toilet had a very loud high pitch noise that lasted about a minute every time you flushed. Could hear it through the wall with the door shut. -Bed was super hard. -They didn't give us any blankets. We had to go to Walmart and buy 1. -Fridge was more like a freezer. Froze everything we put in it. -Only gave us 2 small towels, 1 washcloth, and 2 hand towels for 2 of us. -Handrails walking up stairs were not right, pushed right in a spot you couldn't hold it. -Top landing of stairs was severely deteriorated. A safety hazard for sure. -You could hear everyone walking the top floor walkway at all hours. …

We had lots of flight issues and I had to call several times to change my reservation. Not only did Alfredo happily work with me, but saved us a bit too. I won't stay anywhere else in Burbank. Friendly helpful staff and a really nice hotel. Win, win! I'd give them 10 stars.

This hotel is a five minute walk from my daughter’s apartment and I really wanted it to be as great as the other reviews said it was but it was not. Perhaps my experience was a fluke. The positives: location. There is a great park across the street. The guy at the front desk was very nice. The negatives: the lampshade was broken, there was a hole kicked in the bathroom door, the cupboards had crumbs and even food was left in one of the cupboards, the hair dryer was off the wall and filthy. I had to wipe smudges off the door and door handle. The room smelled faintly of cigarettes- this may be from people smoking outside the rooms because there is a pretty significant gap under the door. The walls are pretty thin. You can hear televisions, music , walking from other rooms easily. The king bed sloped to the middle. Take note that the restaurant “Franks” is closed. Another member of our family stayed here a few days before and her room was okay, so maybe I just got a bad room. But the whole place seemed sketchy and dirty to me. If you read my other reviews you will see that I am an honest but not typically overly critical reviewer.…

We were in town for a funeral at Mt. Sinai. This is a great hotel. Friendly staff. It's close to everything we needed to do. Unit was very clean. It looks like it was recently remodeled. Very nicely decorated. Bed was very comfortable. Microwave & mini fridge in room. And it was very nice to have a restaurant on the premises as well. We will definitely stay here again.

All er could get in one room was scalding hot water.you don’t even get you pay for here.run away!!!!!!

We booked this motel when visiting Universal Studio. We needed a parking lot, so to be safe we chose a hotel a little bit away from the Studio. We checked in around 8pm but we didn’t have any problem finding parking spots. There was Ralph supermarket 5 min drive distance where we got some cheap dinner and breakfast. But we found out that this motel provide simple breakfast: sweet bakery, oats, toasts, bagels, coffee, orange juice etc. This motel seemed old; you can tell from the look outside and inside the room. But at least the restroom was renovated with new flooring. It looked clean. Wifi was surprisingly worked very well from my room. There were microwave and fridge. No hair dryer though. Overall, we were agreeably surprised by the quality of the room for the relatively low price. We’d come back again and we’d recommend this motel.…

My husband and I chose this hotel kind of last minute for our 5 k at universal studios in November. We got a competitive price for a very clean nice room. I realized at 9:30 at night we were missing paperwork we needed for the next morning at 5 am! The front desk was super helpful to get me what I needed. Clean room! Friendly and helpful staff!!!! Plenty of parking!!!! We will most likely stay here our next trip to the park!!!! Only negative thing I can say is that we came in after dark and the sign was hard to see. Easily fixed by a u-turn at the next light. This is a hidden gem!
