Stayed second floor of the main building. Interesting that the front desk is purely remote. Worked fine for me as I had no issues that required their assistance. A bit outdated room, but decent and clean. Walls and doors are thin and you can hear your neighbors talking and outside in the hall too. Good location to most of the LA area. Good parking. An overall average location.
