What guests think

At Studio City Court Yard Hotel, travelers highlight a convenient location for Universal Studios and dining, generally friendly staff, and useful basics like a clean pool, courtyard seating, and a simple grab-and-go breakfast.

Rooms are spacious but dated, with frequent street noise and thin walls; comfort varies from firm beds and loud A/C to remodeled bathrooms in some units. Cleanliness reports are mixed: many found tidy rooms, while others cited pests, odors, or worn fixtures. Parking is limited and often paid, and Wi-Fi reliability and deposit or refund experiences drew complaints. Expect a budget, no-frills stay centered on location and basic amenities.

Very nice and clean, even a swimming pool and all of the amenities. The only negative things were the drapes didn't close and only a white see-through curtain did, and paying $13 for parking.

Good property if visiting local attractions. It's a little outdated, but still clean, very friendly staff and the coffee and pastries in the morning was very nice to have as a grab and go before we went on our adventure. I would most likely stay here again. Especially if you're on a budget, and you need a good spot. The pool is very nice too

The property was great, parking was about $13, the pool was clean, the pool chairs were comfortable, there were 2 fire pit areas, lots of tables with umbrellas, and 2 water features. The rooms were clean, the bedding was Nice, and the AC worked great. There were a ton of amenities in the room TV, mini fridge, microwave, and coffeemaker. In the bathroom, there was a hair dryer, dispensers with soap, lotion, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. There was an ice machine next to our room as well as a vending machine.. From 7am-9an there was a continental breakfast of muffins, danishes, yogurt, cuties, and coffee. It was on a main street so there was noise, but there were also lots of coffee, breakfast, and food nearby. We stayed because of its short distance to Universal Studios. The staff was very friendly.

There were cockroaches that swarmed from behind the bathroom mirror and also crawling in the shower. I was not able to reach anyone at the front desk and was denied a refund. I moved to another hotel and was denied a refund. Expedia also tried reaching out that night on my behalf and no one was answering. Disgusting property

The room and the furniture is old but the sheets and towels were clean. The place needs a serious renovation. It was very nice that they were offering cupcakes and coffee for breakfast even though it wasn’t mentioned in their service. The only thing I didn’t like was that there were little cockroaches in bathroom.

I had reserved and paid for a room. When I got there their credit card reader wouldn't read my card. They don't have an option to insert the card or use RFID. I only had one card with me, so I had to go find a bank to get cash. This has never happened to me before. I use this card every day at every store I go to. I paid the $150 in cash. When I checked out they wouldn't give my deposit back. No discussion. They said they smelled cigarette smoke. Just wouldn't give it back. I assume the rude clerk at the desk just pocketed the cash.

The manager, apparently who I spoke with, was so rude and frank and didn’t care at all that I wasn’t able to check in on time and when I called to ask if I could get a refund, he said he would call me back and he never did. It was so unprofessional and courteous that I never want to stay here again.

I experienced a perfect stay. I booked through Expedia and when I arrived it was a very smooth check-in just needed to see my ID and credit card for a hold for $150 and I was given the keys to my room. They found my reservation right away no problems with itinerary numbers or this or that. Very smooth. The attendant was extremely helpful and polite. I will definitely stay here in the future no problem. I slept perfectly it was not loud I got a lot of rest bed was comfortable pillows were nice. The decor is older but I didn't go for a fashion show. All the water worked. Hot cold, television worked microwave worked refrigerator worked. Everything was in working order and nice.

A great very reasonably priced choice for someone who needs a place to stay for a night or 2 in LA/Studio City area! Very convenient (lots of restaurants and shops nearby, including a cute strip mall with breakfast options, coffee shop, and boutique gyms right across the street), and the rooms are spacious and tidy. This is my new go-to hotel for a quick work trip in LA!

This hotel was nice for the most part. Lots of amenities were included for my stay. The pillows were a little weird, because they are square, not rectangular. The bed was comfortable though. They had cute, little pastries available in the morning too. I didn't try the swimming pool as I was really busy during my stay. The staff were mostly accommodating, but one of the men working was pretty grumpy any time I would ask a question. I asked maybe three questions during my three night stay, and every time he seemed like it was an inconvenience to answer it. Overall, I really liked it here though.
