Budget Inn Hollywood

No parking employee told us first come first serve on parking but there’s no space we had to pay in a parking garage away from the motel. Horrible experience never again

Great staff . Motel is centrally located to walk of fame and so many other things and food options . I will stay here again next time. Only thing that sucked a little was lack of parking . I had 6 women and 2 cars and it was hard to get parking for both cars.

Had an original booking for Budget Inn, it was relatively cheap so I knew we were going on not expecting much. Upon arriving to the hotel, keep in mind parking is very limited and tight. There was no one to check in, and had to walk next door to H-Wood Hotels to do so. Check in was pretty smooth. We got the key for the room, and we were taken back by how small the room was compared to the photos shown online. It was the size of a child’s room. The room consisted of a bed, small bedside table, and TV that only had a handful of channels. The curtains for the window didn’t even cover the whole frame. AC unit was covered with dead bugs and other particles. Stains on the cover and sheets of the bed. Not sure what of, but definitely not somewhere you’d want to lay your head on. Bathroom consists of a small shower only big enough for one person to stand at a time. It was so uncomfortable to sit or stand anywhere in the room, we had to ask to be switched. Once again we go next door and ask if we could be moved to this side. I showed the check in guy all the pictures of the uncleanliness of the room, and offers to move me to H-Wood Hotel under the conditions of paying the difference of rooms. At that point we agreed in desperation to find anything better. We ended up paying an extra $40 for the switch. We get into the room to discover the bed was unmade as if someone had stayed there. It was late in the night so decided to just settle for the night. Neighbors didn’t let us sleep.

Great price, comfortable but the only thing I have to deal with a parking lot because I got a truck and that’s limitless space

Advertised as free parking but only had 3 or 4 spots

It's an OK place. The parking is small and the first thing we saw by our car was a rat. The sheets seemed clean but they had a few stains. When we seated on the toilet we couldn't almost close the door because our legs wouldn't fit (and we are not tall). The neighbors had the TV on all night. The guy at the front desk was nice.

Room was filthy, moldy, no working smoke detector. Parking lot was extra small.

Our stay was okay, not bad not good. Room was clean & had air conditioning wasn’t to bad for a one night stay. Did have noisy upstairs neighbors but the later it got quieter it got. Only negative is they don’t have a parking lot so to find parking can be tricky on a public busy street & there’s also parking meters there but it’s a whole thing and shorta complicated to explain. It’s only free certain times and certain days. The receptionist explained it very well tho when we stayed doubtful about how the parking worked there.

I don’t like there don’t have parking lot and I ask for parking the employee said is 50 dollars for the parking in other area

Check in next door,7 parking spaces for 20 rooms first come first served. TV didn't work ,no table or chair. Not safe. Will never come back . Don't do it.

The online pictures Do not match the Actual Rooms. They didn't have basic house keeping , floors was Dirty,No tissue,bath room dirty. Room Smelled . Dont rebt There!

We’re talking hourly rates motel without the budget rate. $120? Oof. I have no standard for motel rooms and have stayed in the worst of the worst but I see the room and never went back. It is what it is. Bring your own bedding and towels maybe? The bedding was stained and filthy. Couple had towels on the bathroom from who knows. Pros: No bedbugs and front desk was friendly and quick check in.

I appreciate the convenient location, with everything within easy walking distance or a short drive. The fresh exterior paint enhances its appearance. Check-in was straightforward (using the neighboring hotel). I anticipated a basic room at that price, suitable for a one-night stay. Unfortunately, the room was quite unclean, particularly the bed linens and pillows. The bathroom was even less satisfactory, with visible mold and dirt; we were hesitant to use the shower or towels, and therefore did not. A small cabinet would have improved comfort, but it was not provided. The air conditioning unit was quite loud and old, and there was an unpleasant odor. I wish I could offer more positive feedback, but unfortunately, there is little to commend. While I didn't expect luxury at this price point, basic cleanliness and furnishings would have been appreciated.

Worst night ever! If possible, I would have rated my experience 0 stars. I know this is a cheap hotel, but I expected at least something decent. Here's a list of how it went despite the room recently been "cleaned": - Blankets burnt/ripped and had some questionable stains - Pillows were also stained and smelled like cigarettes - The floor was sticky and burnt by some portable stove - AC was beaten up (it worked, but there was some strange white powder near the vent) - the windows faced a wall where pigeons nested - Smallest bathroom ever! Couldn't even fit my legs straight when sitting on the toilet - Random screaming in the middle of the night! I got scared because someone started banging on all of the doors - Since it was barely "cleaned", the whole room smelled it was sprayed with the strongest Febreze yet somehow still had the scent of cigarettes. It made me dizzy and it took hours for the room to ventilate the smell away. I then asked for a change of rooms, but they told us that it wasn't possible and only gave us a change of blankets and some towels. I only stayed for one night with my family, renting a total of 3 rooms, but it was the worst night of our trip!

First impression was walking into a non-smoking room that reeked of cigarettes, the smoke alarm was yanked out, no curtain in the bathroom, cigarette burns in the bedding, no curtain in the bathroom that looked out to a needle/ cigarette filled alleyway. We changed rooms and got one that didn’t smell like smoke, but was still dirty, eyelashes in bathroom, used toothbrush, a closet with nothing to hang things on, and a table without a top. This was by far the worst place I’ve ever stayed! Not even you get what you pay for, this was beyond unsanitary and grimy.

Sheets and towels were stained, sheets were so bad I slept in my clothes on top of the bed.

It was not what it looked like in pictures. Bugs in washroom. Floor dirty. Washroom is tiny literally. Towels smelly room smelly. No hot water during evening and night all even during day u wait for 30 mins for hot water. Sink was broken water was clogged. Terrible experience honestly!

Rooms are superdirty. Pillows and blankets are full of dirt stains. The smell of dampness is everywhere. But price and location are good

I booked a room with Budget Inn as the pictures looked good and I just needed place to stay after flying in from LAX. However, when I stepped into my room, it was difficult to find a corner that was tidy. Baseboards were overpainted and dirty. The walls looked as dirty. I wasn’t expecting pristine, but to find some kind of small, black mold on window caulking was the least of my concern. When I transferred to the sister hotel next door, it was a slight better upgrade. The bathroom needs to be re caulked as there was a serious smell of mold that was always in the bathroom (even when I left the bathroom fan on) I wish I could get a partial refund or something, because a room at almost $200 is obscene. Especially considering the bathroom door is falling at a corner.

I can tell property is "trying". Here are my observations: 10/10 for being extremely close (less than 10min walk) to Chinese Theater (Celebrity Stars). However the walk is not in the best area of town and could spook you if you are not used to city life. Motel parking was super small and I can see them easily not having enough spaces. Our room had 3 beds which was what brought us to this motel. Beds were comfortable and felt clean. Bathroom only had two towels (which makes no sense when there are 3 beds). No hand towels or washcloths. Air-conditioning unit was old and loud but the loud was actually good as it helped cover the outside noises as walls are very thin. Our flooring was vinyl which I prefer over carpet and there were no major odors. No table, desk, drawers or closet. I would totally stay here again just for the location and price. I am not picky at all and my main goal in staying at a motel is price and proximity to my excursions over confort, i'm just there to sleep and shower.

There was no table or chairs in the room

The window had no lock it could be easily opened from the outside and there was no seating or a proper table to eat When told front desk he just apologize for window but did nothing to solve the problem

It's an OK place. The parking is small and the first thing we saw by our car was a rat. The sheets seemed clean but they had a few stains. When we seated on the toilet we couldn't almost close the door because our legs wouldn't fit (and we are not tall). The neighbors had the TV on all night. The guy at the front desk was nice.

Except beds and a stand, no other things in room, not even hangers

Small parking space, and space not guaranteed. No towels or toiletries when we arrived, we had to ask for them. No hair dryer. No curtain in the big bathroom window. Toilet is very closed to the wall, not giving enough space to sit comfortably. Floor was dirty. On the other hand, AC worked. You get a bed, bedsheets, and a tiny little table. The very minimum.

Zero amenities, the remote didn’t even work to the tv, very loud all the nights, no tables or desks in the room, no WiFi. The bathroom was the smallest I’ve ever seen, I couldn’t even sit on the toilet with the door closed

Cheap hotel that I stayed in for work. I wouldn’t take my family there. I may not even stay there again. It was cheap and that was the only good thing about it. Shower drain was broken but atleast it drained. The room would have been on par with a New York studio that you see online… super tiny with just enough room to walk around a queen size bed. Shower just big enough for a single person to stand up in and turn around. You have to squeeze between the sink and the wall to ge tin th shower. Parking lot only fits 6 cars but the driveway is just barely wide enough for a single vehicle to fit through and if the lot is full you get to practice reversing down a narrow alley. It wa cheap and that wa the ily saving grace.

Check in next door. Guy super nice. The parking was behind the sketchy building. Only like 10 spots with alot of Sketchy people hanging out. Room was blank white walls. A bed. A tv. And an a unit. Very prison like. Bathroom... Knees touched the door (I'm not a big guy) so I couldn't even shut the door if I sat down. Sink touched toilet, shower touched sink. Ssoo small but everything was clean and worked. Once again... Very prison like Had to be up at 530 so crashed around 10. At 11 someone above we was stomping in circles and then kept smashing something On the floor. Sounded like the whole bed. It litterly shook my bed! This went on for 3 hours. I called the "front desk" and he said he'd take care of it. An hour later it was still happening. Called the front desk and he said he knocked but everyone was sleeping. Said "nobody and making noise". I told him to come in my room and listen. He did and he couldn't believe what he heard. Said he'd take care of it. An hour later... It was STILL HAPPENING! Called again... He moved me to another room... Yeah at 330am I had to pack up my room and move to another room because "the guy upstairs is drunk". Fine.. I moved. Once again bare but much bigger. 3 beds. Immediately layed down to sleep for 2 hours before I have to wake up.... Wrong!!! There were people outside in the parking lot taking ALL NIGHT and so one above me violently puking over and over.... I gave up at 5am and left. FML

The rooms themselves are clean however the common areas of the hotel are not. The building itself is very run down and foreboding. To put it in everyday parlance, it's a bad vibe. There are lots of sketchy people in the neighborhood, even during the day you won't feel safe. The front desk clerks were nice. The internet didn't work well. Even once i had the correct password it was difficult to connect to the network. While this is an affordable option in a convenient location, i would not recommend it.

It was just what its said its gonna be, a cheap place to stay, the area was cool, but kinda scary, the place provides a bed, a tv and a bathroom. Even if the place is kinda insecure and scary, it does the job and its what i paid for tbh. I read a lot of bad reviews but the people was nice, the check in take like 2 minutes and check out a couple of seconds.

Great staff . Motel is centrally located to walk of fame and so many other things and food options . I will stay here again next time. Only thing that sucked a little was lack of parking . I had 6 women and 2 cars and it was hard to get parking for both cars.

Excellent checkin

Dirty, no towels, no working tv, no parking. Area is extremely ghetto. No one to check in. You have to go to another hotel to get checked in. Never again!!!

The staff at check was actually nice but after that, everything was awful. This area of Sunset Blvd is full of riff raff. There are only 7 parking spaces with a super tight driveway to navigate down just to see it full and have to 14 point turn to get out of. Almost all of street parking are tow seats so good luck if you have a vehicle. On one night I parked at the sister motel next door (the same one you’ll check in and out of for here) and went in to explain I had done so and that I’d be checking out in only 5 hours and was responded to with so much attitude and told no (the spot I intended to use stayed empty for those 5 hours). The room has floor stains all over, no desk/table/chair just two beds. The bathroom was even smaller and tighter to get in and use than the parking. The room looks like maybe once upon a time they started repairs to it and just stopped since they are used hourly more than nightly… I will never stay here again and do not recommend that anyone else does either. To be fair, I picked this motel because it was closest and cheapest to a show I was attending but I wish I had done more research so I could have avoided it. Live and learn, luckily I lived though it and definitely learned!

Room was terrible, but cheap. Staff is great though, friendly and efficient.

Great hotel staff amazing and they handled any issues you have as soon as you tell them with a great attitude love this place

The staff was amazing. On top of their game. Very helpful. All the bad reviews. Its hollywood. Full of life. Full of character. We were super happy. Thanks guys.

didn't get any service the entire weekend despite calling the numbers to 'call if not here.' towels not replaced. no trash replacement. it's clean, but lacks any chairs or tables. even for the price, it's not very worth it unless you're just meaning to go to hollywood blvd.

The only positive of this place is very close to the boulevard.....place is sufficient with clean rooms lacking a basic place to keep your clothes and a microwave oven. Bathrooms were clean and maintained. The other negative is

A budget hotel near the attractions. Very affordable, clean, but a sketchy area. Bring ear plugs.

It is located very close to most needed things,entertainments,public transportation,

Liked the conviniet central location near the public transportation and tourist attractions,,did not expect to be in a accomodation where there are m Any unknown visitors at nights,it issumply open to easily walk in and browse.

The people at reception were wonderful, and the price for a last minute trip was perfect. But the setting was pretty rough. Lots of people wandering around outside at all hours, someone outside my room watching TV on his phone at 5am, people arguing with each other early in the morning in the hallway. Definitely not a place I'd recommend if you have other options. But I didn't, and it was good for that.

Good location to explore the city center without car

This motel is in a rundown part of Hollywood. Unfortunately, this used to be a good area. Now it's filthy, with unhoused people everywhere, abandoned buildings, and bad smells. The property feels unsafe as anyone off the street can walk right up to your door. Many items (pics available) were in poor condition - burn hole in duvet, broken a/c housing, missing grommets on drapes, horrible mattress, and no towels. You have to go to the motel next door to check in/out. Would NOT recommend or stay there again.

I did not enjoy this property at all really. It felt unsafe and really sketchy. I was desperate for a room and that was the cheapest place I could find so I booked it. Inconvenient parking and small and narrow, but I have a transit van so I’m surprised it got in and out with some maneuvering. Other wise just a bare bones room that has a janky bed and a janky bathroom situation. I would suggest having your own bedding and pillows. And wipe surfaces before you touch them, the black light reveals much. It is close to the sites in Hollywood so there’s that.
