El Patio Inn Studio City

If you are literally there just to rest and put feet up, it was great and beds were comfy...even fridge and microwave. It was much more expensive than most with same amenities, if you need two beds and the absolute rubbish fact of no internet and not being pet friendly when it says they are was really aggravating. As it was late at night and we were tired, wehad to keep our dog in the car for the night...had it been a bit later in the season and hot...i am not sure what we would have done. ...read more

The rooms were very clean. Housekeeping did an excellent job for our long stay. This hotel was perfect for us. We don't need the hype/cost of a 5star hotel. We simply wanted a hotel to sleep and shower after sightseeing. We would definitely recommend this hotel to our friends coming to the area. Has a fridge and microwave, tv and phone. Simple.

Awful experience. I should be given a refund as I refused to stay in a roach infested room. The staff was not helpful at all. How can u offer to clean my room when it was infested with roaches. I stopped counting at 12. There were probably bed bugs. It also appeared as though there were leaves of some sort on the bed. I was with my children and this was pretty disgusting. I trusted this sight to offer a descent location as we were spending the weekend at universal studios. Unsanitary unhealthy and gross. ...read more

Terrible, gross, unclean, and unfriendly.

I was shocked that this hotel was such a dump. Dirty, smelled. No place to sit laptop or plug it in. Refrigerator was not clean. Surprise this hotel has not been shutdown by the health department!

Location for us was great and was told free coffee, but this is only in morning and with pastries (well that is questionable as you have to go into some little kitchenette to take a tiny muffin from a shop tray and pour your coffee and put in powder creamer etc.) - this could easily be set up to appear more appealing etc. With dishes piled up in sink is not appealing. All clean enough, but very economy type motel.

Reasonably priced and convenient location were the motels good points. Carpets seemed old and grungy, bed was so-so, bathroom clean, but no tub, no remote control for old TV with bad color, had to change rooms because no working reading light in the first room. Staff reasonably friendly but not very helpful.

First parking at hotel was horrible. Parking lot was to small to get in and out of. I was looking for an outlet to plug in a charger and found a box of empty cigarettes. Then when we did decide to go to sleep there was a dog crying next store for about an hour. I had to call the front desk and let the phone ring because no one was answering. To have someone quite the dog. Then we had a cricket in the room that kept us up the whole night. Finally to be woken up by weedwhackers in the am. I say this was the most horrible hotel experience I've had. ...read more

I bid on a two star hotel but the El Patio is barely a one star. There was no clock in the room. No remote for the television. Bad lighting with lots of bulbs out. I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone.
