1. Positives:Helpful Staff and Concierge - they know how to get you where you are going and bend over backwards to help you get there - Bliss Spa on site - after spending days pounding the pavement in LA - it's an amazing treat to have a Bliss Spa in the hotel to relax with a massageWhiskey Blue - always fun to have a 'trendy' space at your hotel to 'relax' among the pretty LA people - it is a fun clubNegatives:Location: Westwood is a little far outside of 'downtown' LA - so it makes it difficult to navigate to the Sunset Strip or Staples Center areas on a whim, however, you are close to Malibu and Venice BeachNoise: Like I mentioned - this is a 'trendy' hotel - so the noise and crowd factor can be a little overwhelming at times in the common areas and the pool - small price to pay thoughGood hotel - I would recommend for a stay in Los Angeles.
