Amenities and staff were amazing. Suite was spacious. The hotel is an older apartment building and needs a refresh

Staff is very friendly and helpful. but the property is way too old and not worth the price...
The hotel manager and staff were amazing. Room was clean, parking was easy, and the environment was fun and friendly. We were able to easily walk to Hollywood blvd and felt safe. Had an amazing vacation seeing The Phantom of the Opera with my sister and daughter.
Stayed for pitbull concert nearby! Our friends definitely enjoyed a family friendly environment. We also enjoyed late night ice cream after the concert! Staff were extremely helpful and friendly.
The location is great and the amenities are equivalent to much more expensive properties. The staff are also very helpful and friendly.
I would recommend the Magic Castle hotel to all families staying in LA. It is also 1 stop away on the Metro to Universal Studios.

This is a really fun place to stay at. If you have kids they will love it. It’s an older building with thin walls but the service and experience is second to none. No other hotel offers the amenities that this place does. If you want to WOW your kids then this is the place. The pool is nice and warm, free fountain drinks and soft serve ice cream. A long list of premium snacks all for free. We have never stayed at another hotel that was this fun! Had a free double shot of espresso on our way out, better than Starbucks.

Staff went above and beyond. Amenities were great. Room we stayed in could use some serious TLC.
This is a MUST for kid friendly! The staff was excellent!! They have all the things for kids: snacks 24/7, popsicle phone while swimming, hot and need some soft serve ice cream YEP!! It’s not brand new but I would stay there again!! My kids felt heard & seen and it was honestly the BEST hotel for them, they can’t wait to go back.
Excellent family hotel. The amenities are truly awesome with free snacks, ice cream, soft drinks and more. It is a great overall place to stay and so close to the Hollywood Walk of Fame and other great local attractions. The rooms are large and comfortable, though slightly dated and some things that could use maintenance (like broken door knobs). I would recommend especially for families with younger kids.
Amazing staff and perfect family hotel for exploring Hollywood.
Free sodas, ice cream, snacks and of course the legendary popsicle hotline.
Nice to have a room with microwave and oven so we could cook for ourselves (there is a Target 10min walk away).
Rooms are looking a little tired but that shouldn’t impact the overall experience.
I booked this room last minute and from the moment i walked in staff was very welcoming and friendly. This property went straight to my favorite in the list.
