I had a pretty quick but pleasant stay here!

I had a pretty quick but pleasant stay here!

If you're doing anything UCLA oriented, this is a prime location. It was evident from a quick walk around that I was in the midst of a high end "college town."

Upon arrival I realized that I had been here before, almost a decade ago for my brother's wedding rehearsal dinner. That was my very first time in LA, so the poolside reception and the fancy stairs with waterfall effects upon entry to the lobby really wow'ed me.

Now that I've stayed at quite a few W Hotels over the years, I can say that this one is pretty on par with what you can expect from the brand. My room was hip and comfortable with comfort amenities that include Bliss products in the bathroom, mini bar, robe and of course, a very comfortable bed.

While I didn't get a chance to explore the property much, I did note the restaurant on the lobby level which offered a complimentary coffee bar in the morning.

Overall, this W Hotel provided me with the comfort and convenience I needed for a quick one night stay!
