7. First, the pros: cheap rate for a hotel within 15 minutes of Downtown and USC; impressive entrance and lobby; friendly car valet service; good front desk staff; business center with free printing of airline boarding passes; lots of Asian and other fast food restaurants just outside the hotel; across from Metro subway station; restaurant and coffee kiosk on property, the latter serving Starbucks; no problem accessing 3G from my room; and hairdryer in bathroom and iron in closet.
