    Guests next door very noisy. Pillows very thin and uncomfortable. Remote control for TV was bizarre. Pushed volume control, it switched channels. Pushed again, channel changed. Same experience with channel button.

    Inn was nice and very clean. Loved retro feel, like stepping back in time.

    The location was further from the airport than I expected. That was my only disappointment but worth it for the nice pool facilities and that great neon sign.

    This is an above-average motor hotel with an exceptional neon sign that's been maintained. Their care with this sign is a measure of the hotel's attention to quality. I would recommend it to others definitely. There are many good food choices within walking distance, even a liquor store.

    I didn’t like that after the first night we didn’t get another card to order breakfast from. We did the room service the first morning but we never got a card again to do it again otherwise we would’ve ordered again.

    The shuttle! The shuttle really saved us from getting a rental car so it was very helpful!

    There wasn't anything we didn't like.

    The staff was amazing and went above and beyond. The shuttle to Universal Studios was a life saver and made our life so much easier with 3 kids. The hotel was very nostalgic, and we loved it all around!!

    cool place but don't rely on the shuttle

    be sure to schedule your airport shuttle a few days ahead, we were frustrated that they were booked up. Same goes for if you are planning to use their shuttle to Universal, you will likely end up using an uber instead. Coke machine was broken. Would have been helpful to know ahead of time that the shuttle requires advance reservations.

    Cool history, and the room had fun period touches. Nice wall showing all the films its been in.

    The bathrooms were outdated, and the air-conditioning was loud.

    The staff were amazing! Everyone of them! The place was spotless. Although the bathrooms are sadly outdated, the cleaning staff did an admirable job, making them as.comfortable as possible. The absolute best was the shuttle service, to and from the airport, and Universal Studios!
