"Guest rooms are pretty minimalist in decor, but comfortable; half have views of the Strip (with blackout shades to deal with the flashing lights at night)." Full review

"It's no longer as hip or famous as its West Hollywood neighbors (the Chateau, Sunset Tower, and Mondrian), and the service can be spotty." Full review
