Old and not updated. Clean and alright for the price.
Nice small refrigerator, nice flat screen TV, fairly clean. The price was very good, but I got what I paid for and next time I"m going to pay a little more and get a little more hotel. I can no longer say I have never been to a hotel that prominently displays a sign in the office window forbidding prostitution. Not that I've stayed in hotels that allow prostitution... this just has never been an issue. This is not a family friendly hotel. The room was extremely small, the beds were doubles (not queens), the bathroom was teeny, and we kept tripping over ourselves the entire time. This hotel is apparently ran by a family on a very tight budget. We were supplied with two bath towels and two washcloths (for four people); the single hand towel turned out to be the bath mat. The toilet paper was so thin it stuck to anything once it got wet (... you see the problem), and the only toiletries provided were two small cakes of soap that broke once you touched them. The night clerk (to whom I spoke to through a plate glass window with a speaker, where the "no prostitution" sign was posted) apparently was on loan from Disneyland's Snow White adventure--he was Grumpy. It was only 9:30 pm when I checked in; I'd hate to see how he treated a late check-in. I stood outside shouting into the speaker and ended up spelling words so he could understand. He freaked his shiz when he found out I had children. Again, not a family friendly place.
There was a huge HDTV in the room with cable. Room was a decent size. At least it was cheap. The room smelled like cat urine. The shower had a permanent rubber mat in it that was at one time clear, but had become mostly black. Luckily we had flip flops to wear in the shower. Room did not get cleaned during the day.
Close to Universal Studios The outside hallway carpet was greasy and muddy. Even after having them clean it, we continued to bring grease and grime and dirt into our hotel room. Our entry walkway was pretty disgusting because of it.
The staff, the comfy beds, location Funny smells, noisy electronics/shower, parking price. The place is good but could use an update
Everything was perfect
The room was spacious...good pillows. Good gym, nice pool. Two elevators were out (and have been for 3 years!), making trips up and down sometimes very lengthy. You can call the operator each time you go to the elevator asking to be picked up, but how ridiculous for a hotel of this caliber. Restaurant food was boring. All three places to eat at the hotel had the same menu, with tiny differences. The first meal or two it is fine, you can find alternate foods to eat, but after a few days, a change is necessary. It cost $18 for a so-called, all you can eat 'continental breakfast'...yogurt, fruit, cereal, muffins and coffee! This Hilton is near the Universal City Walk, all franchise restaurants so no good food nearby for real foodies...if you like buffets with all you can eat, this is your place.
Best place to stay when going to Universal Studios, and I go a lot. There's a free shuttle that takes you to the entrance of City Walk or you can walk there in less than 10 minutes via the pedestrian bridge.
The pool, corner room & breakfast. The parking situation upon arrival.
Staff and less than 10 minutes walking distance to Universal studio Wait for elevator and parking was pricey
Staff was great, location to other attractions The parking garage was pricey considering I paid 200.00 a night should get a discount when staying. The elevators were all not in service. Breakfast was too expensive for a weeks stay. I couldn't find a salon inside for service.
Walking distance to universal and reasonable droving distance to many LA locations. Cost of parking.
Great value for the price. Only thing that I can point out was check in. We had to wait for a room to get cleaned even though we were checking in 2 hrs past regular check in. Also no hot tub. :( staff was top notch. I have never had towels delivered so fast. I swear they were to us before I hung up, haha
Everything was great. Was only there for a night, but staff was very attentive. You had to pay extra for parking.
We liked pretty much everything. There's a pool, fitness center, & gift shop. There's also a fully functioning restaurant (The Daily Grill) that is open early & closes late. Great place to have people in the area meet us for food or drinks. Very comfortable rooms with everything you need included. It was nice to have a parking lot in the hotel, but if you opted not to go with Valet, it was a little bit of a walk to get to the lobby with suitcases & such. Adding to that, the parking lot is shared with airport travelers, so there were times at night where we were concerned we wouldn't find any spaces, even though we were hotel guests. But, it still worked out, there were a couple of hidden spots. My biggest complaint is that the air-conditioning unit in our room was very loud & would wake us up throughout the night whenever it clicked on. On a minor note, the business area in the room with the extra outlets had blown a fuse & no power was coming out of it. We let the front desk know. Over-all, these are small complaints (other than the AC).
We stayed there before going to vegas for our honeymoon... Awesome place, staff is extremely friendly, totally recommended
I loved the bed but that's about it. When I first checked in I was carrying my baby and luggage and had my son follow. Got all the way to my room and my key didn't work so i had to drag it all back down and carry it all back up a second time. The shower clogged up. The tv was in & out and some channels didn't have any volume?! No fridge, no microwave, no table for us to eat on.... (There was a desk my son ate on but me & my husband had to eat standing up or on the bed) Parking is $21 a night for guest. You have to pay for wifi & breakfast.
The Hotel was clean and staff was super friendly but the parking wasn't free, $21 dollare a day. Yikes! No free parking.
Room was very clean and staff was very polite.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. No breakfast for guests unless you pay at the restaurant or order room service.
Very clean and comfortable. Beds were TOO small for a group of 6 girls.
Great staff Double queen beds seemed a little small and mattresses were not very comfortable.
The pool area at night was beautiful The only thing I would mention is that the additional parking fee was not clear when I booked, I ve found out of this at the hotel
Steak salad from room service was exceptional! Employees were friendly and helpful. Toilet stopped up. Hallways smelled musty. Bedspread smelled like someone's perfume - obviously was not washed before I arrived. Woodwork was full of nicks and scratches. Very dissapointing for a Marriott.
Staff was okay. Food was good. It's being remodeled. Was very noisy in our room 1802 during the day we were trying to take a break between conference sessions. The elevators were incredibly slow! up to a 20 minute wait one evening!(6/13) The door was a hassle, took multiple tries to get it open, latch isn't lined up with striker plate, told front desk, they didn't understand and gave us another key card We'll stay at the Hilton I think, but a bit more money......or wait for remodel to be finished.
So close to Universal Studios and had a shuttle right outside the hotel the door handle to the room needed to be looked at
The Hotel Staff was amazing! They went above & beyond to make sure that our stay was everything we hoped it would be. Nothing!
They charge extra just to use wifi, which is typically a standard accommodation everywhere. The place is run down.
Arrived with family and Young Children. At midnight had a fire alarm that told us to exit the building via Staircase. We did. carrying 2 children and 20 flights of stairs later. We were told, It was the steam from the kitchen that caused it, go back to the room. 1 am, this gets repeated again. We get told someone was smoking, go back to the room. This happens again. We just go to the staircase with no energy to walk down 20 flights of stairs. We call 45 min. later to find out (false alarm). So next morning - the staff gets approached and we get told oh there was a party on the 21st floor that was using a fog machine. I asked why not have a PA system in the stairs so you can notify the people to not panic or there's a fire on the 2nd floor or anything. They said oh I know.. WTF.. I know. I just left with family never to return to that one again.
Was charged a deposit at the hotel, had to pay to park. Also room was soooo cold had to sit in coat and hat, called front desk we were offered a space heater but it was never brought to the room. Called the front desk and was told the heat had been cut back on so heater in room should work now.. It didn't
When we checked in we were told they sold out on higher floor rooms, and only room is on the 4th floor. That room, 420 was dated! Room number on the door was handwritten. Everything was old. I was so angry that I paid over $300 including tax for this pos!
Team members were friendly, shuttle to Universal Studio mall plus in walking distance if you choose and food was good. We were there for our grandsons birthday First I could have had better room rate then what we got Sheraton is a Starwood management and we are owners of a Hotel in San Diego that is also managed by Starwood.. So I had told the manager checking us in that and he still didn't do anything about a lesser rate. Second under remodeling no ATM machine black out curtain didn't close properly use hair clippies to keep outside lighting out at night..
I did like that my room was ready on time and that it had a view. When I arrived there was a leak in the restroom that they did not fix... I has the same issue with the water leaking from the toilet when I woke up the next morning. Also the morning I checked out the TV did not work and I had to call room service to fix it and reprogram it. The price was not up to par with the type of room I was given.
Fantastic staff, great location within walking distance to Universal Studios & not far to drive to Warner Brothers Studios. Rooms are a bit dated & need a makeover, however they are currently renovating the public areas so I am sure they could possibly then start on updating their rooms. The public areas look great.
I loved the location; close to Universal but also a short drive from Hollywood and Warner Brothers. Walking distance to small restaurants and gas stations. The bed was the most comfortable hotel bed I've ever slept in! And the view from the 20th floor was incredible. The room needs some updating. Dings and marks were visible on the walls and the bathroom showed definite signs of wear.
Location, location and location - that's the only thing positive about this hotel. Otherwise, it is no better than a poor hotel with bad everything - Rooms are aged (badly need remodeling) - Rooms are not kept up and clean (there was mildew buildup around the sink and it was blocked for us) - Service is poor (45 min to get shower cap)
The peace and quite and very relaxing and clean Leaving
The rooms were clean and comfortable The staff were attentive and courtious The smoke alarm tests Lack of king bed availaîlity
This is a very efficient, comfortable and stylish hotel. The staff is friendly and professional. Clearly, they hire customer oriented staff and pay great attention to detail. I'll definately return.
Everything was great! Would recommend to others
Pillows, beds, comfort of whole room. Excellent staff. Shuttle was lincoln town car. Across from 24hr grocery store. No view just another room 4 feet away. No pool. Spa water was warm but not hot. Did I mention, no pool!
this hotel had the most comfortable bed i have slept in away from home. the stylish simple decor is relaxing and the small details are appreciated. the central location is one of the primary reasons i selected this hotel. very pleased with my experience at this hotel.
Just how nice the staff was and the welcome feeling each time you entered the doors An $93 dollars charge a day later after paying the bill that was not given a reason for what it was for.
Very nice room with good comfort Expensive breakfast! Including tax and normal tip we paid almost 70 dollars for a three persons continental breakfast (toast, muffin and fruit).
The guy at the front counter was very helpful room was clean but on the street didn't like that didn't seem like a four-star but did have a minibar valet guy stunk up my car not going back to this hotel because a dirty animal
Very clean Quite far from main la attraction. Neighborhood is a no man's land at night.
The area in Burbank is never the best. It was nice to find this hotel which was very nice and made staying near Burbank Airport not only tolerable but very nice
Very nice hotel for the price. We were only 15min from Universal. Free parking Parking area was small luckily we didn't have a problem but if they were all booked I could see it being an issue
The friendliness of the staff, the cleanliness and the updated everything. We always stay here when we come to California. WiFi included and free parking. The staff is awesome and they treat you with respect and not just like another unknown person.
The good things...Entire hotel was clean and new looking. Check-in was quick. Beds are really comfortable & clean. Nice touch have the remote control in sleeve showing it was sanatized :) Business center was very useful for us! The downfall was someone got arrested in the room right next to us the next morning police everywhere, So that was a site for sore eyes. And a bit scary for us considering I was traveling with my daughter and mother :(
Breakfast was okay, nothing special, but it was nice they had free breakfast at all. Location wasn't the greatest but I didn't feel unsafe. No pool.
Clean Friendly staff Short drive to universal Spend more but avoid this location Neighborhood is shady Scary to walk on streets at night Liquor stores everywhere Not for families No good restaurants or shops around
Proximity to Hollywood Breakfast was marginal. Location was a bit dodgy
The room was nice, the bed was comfy and the staff was very professional, friendly and helpful. The breakfast food, while complimentary, was also not very palatable.
Staff was cool, place was fairly clean, great breakfast The area was horrible ,no pool. Funky smell.would rather pay an extra 50 bucks a night and stay at an embassy suite
Had frig and mirowave in the room . Our room had a connecting door in it. The one night someone in the other room went to sleep with his tv volume up. beginning of the night we were able to sleep but as it got to early morning it became a problem. However when we tried to fix problem they quickly helped solve the issue.
The modern amenities, quality, location was perfect, The fees were high for an average size of room. I've paid that much in the past (Oxnard ~ Garden Inn) but they have small kitchenettes, free bfast & dinner.
The rooms were amazing, and the view was very beautiful! The workers were very polite and very outgoing
Ita the nicest holiday inn i hqve ever seen and the girl at the front desk told me it was the biggest too. Also PARKING IS FREE. . . A rarity in LA It was all good
Staff was amazing (though having a newborn with us helped). Young pregnant woman at front desk (didn't catch her name) was exceptionally accomodating. First night was broken by several members of a wedding party banging on our door and being loud in general.
I enjoyed the entertainment Friday and Saturday night. Kareoke and the house band were awesome The pool area could use some upgrades and a jacuzzi
My only suggestion is that the room service could be a bit nicer for the price... plasticware?
The rooms were very nice and comfy. Nice size bathroom. The non-smoking rooms wreaked of disgusting stale cigarettes. As a non-smoker, it made me gag!!
New, modern hotel with nice rooms. Okay breakfast - better than Holiday Inn as one would expect. Incredibly bad sound insulation through the floors. We complained several times about neighbors who had very loud children left unattended into the late hours and the staff did nothing about it. They also did not provide any concessions or apologies. They could also not figure out providing free parking as part of our rate right up until we checked out and had to get it adjusted. We got locked out of our room and it took a very long time for them to send an engineer to bring the emergency keys. Overall, I would not come back here unless there was a really good deal going.
David was very helpful, we had a bit of trouble finding our way however he talked us through it all and we arrived eventually. We end up extending our booking by 2 nights as the stay was comfortable. I confirmed on check in that my credit card was being used as a pre auth only, however when checking out i was informed my card had been charged without letting me know and i could not charge my stay to the correct card and nothing could be done about it.
Loved the modern look with the retro flair, great location, $5 uber ride to citywalk. Our room lock did not work properly, you had to push and force it open.
excellent spacious room, iphone/ipod connection with tv, very good bed, shower, air conditioning, everything works great. very well decorated room, light inside. close to warner bros, just 10 minutes by car to universal studios and 30 minutes or less to six flags magic mountain.
It was unique with every room having different murals and great location, very friendly hotel staff, and they even have a coffee/espresso machine at all hours of the night as well as pastries provided in the morning! Would definitely recommend for a trip to LA and will be staying here again! Limited parking in front so have to park in the back lot
We loved the pool and hot tub, and the clean and updated facilities. The staff was very helpful, prompt and kind as well. The food was too expensive for the quality of what you got to stay at the hotel to eat.
This hotel was very clean, staff was very friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable. The room I was in was cute. The furniture was nice and the bed was like sleeping on a cloud. I made my reservation an hour before I was to arrive because my other accommodations didn't work out. I enjoyed my stay and I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. No complaints!
My boyfriend and I stayed here because we were going to Universal Studios. The location was perfect only about a 15/20 minute drive. The staff was so nice. I thought the valet parking only would be inconvenient but it actually wasn't. Comfy beds, clean rooms and bathrooms. We would definitely stay here again!
Staff was very nice and room was clean. I have no complaints. Valet parking was free but only because we had to sign up for a rewards program. If we didn't sign up it would have been 7.50 a night.
What I loved the most was that I was close to everything in LA! Breakfast was delicious! Will be coming back for sure!
Everything, everyone was very helpful and pleasant. We will stay here again! Thank you
facilities user friendly, complete, quiet, relax, secure and confort.. none
The room was big and accommodated everyone in my family. The room was clean and tidy. We weren't aware of the valet parking and would have rather Park ourselves.
Clean, comfortable, staff extremely helpful, great pool and convenient to downtown fun. Convenient parking though there is a charge Paying for parking
Newer modern amenities. Room was perfect size. Close to many restaurants. Just a great place to stay. Enjoyed it very much. Nothing I can think of.
New and clean and secure. Convenient and close to food, drink, shopping. Long walk to room 272. No clock in room.
Warm, friendly and helpful staff made my stay a step above
Plenty of parking., quite and clean. Pool was too small. Free breakfast had powered eggs and no bacon or sausage.
Service and staff were great!
Beds were comfortable with nice pillows. Nice bathrooms. Quiet rooms. Clean. N/A
I liked the location of this Best Western because it was close to the California freeway system. The streets surrounding the hotel were wide and traffic was at a minimum so the area was quiet. The hotel is close to wonderful restaurants too. Also, the breakfast each morning was upgraded from the past years that we had stayed at the hotel. There was a much better selection of foods from which to choose. Nothing at this time because our stay was very satisfactory.
Real nice place friendly staff and area around was very nice lots to do.
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
Have nothing but good things to say about the accomadations. Clean, nice, quiet. This is located very close to the shopping areas and was really convienent to the downtown area. If I had a problem it was with the bill. They added $15.00 a day for parking, plus some tax for parking. It came as an unpleasent surprise, considering everything else.
It was like a small apartment. I liked having more than just a bed and a bathroom, very spacious, continental breakfast . Clean, friendly staff, nice location.I have nothing bad to say about it. I would definitely stay there again
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
The rooms were nicely arranged. Loved the layout. It was the perfect studio apartment. Very clean except but I found a hair on one of the pillows :(. But room was otherwise pristine. Also, after a certain time there is no room or hospitality service you have to walk down to the front desk. Keep windows closed at night there is a train.
I liked the spaciousness of the room and I really liked the large breakfast selection. I would have preferred two bathroom sinks.
everything was good!!! with the exception of the parking convienent ,safe, however an unexpected fee for the parking. .. Hotel guest are required to pay for parking at a fee of $15.00 a day... this was not even valet parking.. there was no alternative No. parking in the street allowed.. In essence you are really paying for the ' complimentry Breakfast ' I have paid this and more for valet parking.. Just a little surprise for this .. i have stayed at other Residence Inn and did not have this fee.. Location, Location, Location, I quess..
The location was good for travel to Warner Bros and Universal Studios We changed room 3 times--the first 2 rooms had old furniture--sofa beds looked awful. The room had an awful odor. We did not want to continue to changing rooms; we sprayed a lot of perfume etc. I will never stay in another hotel which allows pets.
cleanliness and promptness of service well, we just stayed overnight so I can't really tell more about this hotel but so far we had a good experience.
Staff was very helpful, courteous, and , and kind Lack if security cameras in the oarking garage
This place is awesome. The staff were extremely courteous and helpful.
nice pool and hot tub, nice rooms clean and spacious
The hotel was well staffed and the staff was friendly and helpful. The restaurant used for the complimentary breakfast was comfortable, and the food was excellent. Room was clean. Bath area had floor patched and re-patched, with grout very dingy looking. Floor was uneven and extreme care was required when using the shower.
The staff was wonderful and accommodating! Rooms were always clean, staff was very friendly. The breakfast was excellent. We were in for over a week for a horse show and this was a great area and easily accessible for us...being from Pennsylvania! Will absolutely stay here again next year! Room was tight for 4 people, but no big deal! Hot tub was a bit too hot...otherwise, no complaints!
Location was central The facilities felt like a Motel 6 trying to be a Marriott and it just doesn't feel comfortable or relaxing at all. The freeway is right next to the rooms. I felt like I was at a cheap Motel.
Nice balcony room with a view over the garden. Wi fi was really slow, no room service
Great staff. Housekeeping forgot to clean our room. Staff was apologetic though and assisted us as much as he can.
Not knowing what to expect, when I walked in to book the room, my first impression was "wow this place is pretty nice" for the money, I would be hard pressed to find a better place, friendly service, clean, very quiet
We saved a lot of money staying at the Mikado for 9 days. Enjoyed the quick and easy access to all the north Los Angeles suburbs we wanted to see. Do not book a stay here if you are looking for luxury. That is not what this hotel is about, although it is comfortable, has in-room refrigerators and microwaves, wi-fi, pool and hot tub. Some reviewers have too high expectations for this price range. We were just looking for a good deal, and that's what we got!
Very friendly staff and affordable for the location Very friendly staff and affordable for the location.
Staff was great. Hotel was clean and comfortable. A little off the beaten path but seemingly a nice neighborhood. I asked for a pre noon check in online the day before and I was not allowed to check in until 3 pm.
Everything. Food very Good. Could not fault anything.
All good
Room was ready upon arrival, very clean, nicely appointed rooms, easy access location. Rooms open to central courtyard which was noisy from the var at night. Room service never brought my order, no call or any apology and the desk staff didn't seem to care the next morning when I told them.
Staff was very friendly and helpful! There was not much nearby that was walking distance, but easy enough to get an über to take you to nearby sights/activities.
helpful staff, good service The pool they were supposed to have was located at another motel. A little deceptive to say they have a pool.
Location and parking and staff. It wasn't clean, shower water temperature wasn't consistent, sink faucet was broken, restroom wall was damaged, carpet was ripped,
Poor hotel Infested with silver bag Poor internet so called free WiFi
It was dirty and smelled weird.
It was probably an awesome place in 1982 when it was last remodeled... First time I've ever been to a hotel that there was no cold water in the shower. I've had lots of no hot water experiences, but only scalding hot water was a first.
The carpets and floor were filthy
The staff at the Ramada in Burbank are very friendly and helpful. The rooms we clean and tidy and the furnishings had been updated in the last year or so. The only complaints are to do with the building. I believe this is an older building and you can tell. Our sink leaked pretty badly from the faucet into the cabinet under the sink. We would get standing water under the sink almost daily, and would try to wipe it out, but you could tell this was a constant problem; there was visible water damage and a little mold (it looked like the entire area had been scoured recently or there may have been more). My other complaint was the shower. This place probably has old piping and without a huge renovation I don't know what they could do about this, but they have some kind of hot water heater/weird piping gremlin here. No matter what temperature you try to get the shower to, whether it's ice cold or as hot as it will get, the temperature changes constantly and dramatically. i would be in the shower and suddenly the water would get completely scalding. This wasn't right after I got in it would be about six minutes in and I hadn't touched anything. So I turn the temperature down all the way and the water gets hotter. Way hotter. I'm standing in the shower and I have to get out because the water is going to burn me. I stood there for five more minutes waiting for it to cool down enough to get back in and wash the shampoo out of my hair. I barely got it rinsed it before the temp jumped back up again, and the temperate was still set for as cold as it would go. Later that day, hours later, when my husband went to use the shower, He would have either scalding water or ice cold water and no in between. We found this problem to be constant in our 7 day stay. We also had the maintenance people look at the sink and they tried to fix it but it didn't really work. It didn't really bother me, I just wiped out the standing water but I was worried about water damage to their hotel and I leaking through to the room below if the problem went unchecked or unnoticed by the next guest. So the pipes are old and the shower was frustrating and you had to be careful using the sink so you didn't flood the area, but the staff is lovely and the rooms were clean and the beds are comfortable. And they have free wifi and the pizza place will deliver to your room.
Some of the front desk staff was polite. Pool was a decent size. Bed was not leveled .Floors also felt like it had holes at least 1 square foot in some spots. Shower head was pretty dirty. The noise was bad from construction crew that was fixing a room close to my room. Noise from highway was pretty bad early morning and late at night. Walls were so thin that I heard conversations as if I was in the same room.
Acoustic insulation is not good at all. We could hear every conversations of people walking by our room. Both queen bed is squeeking too much and curtain has multiple holes.
The room size Very out of date, not worth the price. Needs to be 25% cheaper.
Cheap, relatively clean Rooms and building exterior badly need rehabbing. Tub was patched with repair compound and needs to be reglazed. Shower head is waaaay too low, and I'm only 5'10
The room was cleaned daily, beds were made and they have lots of pillows in the room. Couldn't hear noise from other rooms. Although you are right by the freeway, you don't hear lots of noise. Little to no parking. One day we came back late to the room and there was no parking, and it was confusing on where it was ok to park out on the street. My husband had to help me take the kids up stairs then come down and park the car in a compact area. The check in staff was not the friendliest.
The beds very hard.
It was what was expected a normal hotel inexpensive hotel that was friendly and helpful
Very good about late checkout. Which happens often when travelling internationally.
The willingness of the staff to move us to another room due to a minor plumbing issue.
Got a great price on kayak for the two nights I stayed. Very clean room. Close to where I needed to go in Burbank. Short ride to several food options. No complimentary breakfast. Regular prices are too high. Dated.
Location was ok, pool was nice, staff was great. Room didn't get cleaned until after 5:30pm. Price was pretty high for what you get. Although Hollywood apparently means automatically charge $100 more than what place is worth.
The location was handy, just outside of the hustle and bustle of hollywood but close enough to access. The rooms were lovely, clean and very spacious. The was also a pool and sun deck to chill out. The staff were very friendly and helpful. No internet access, and it was difficult to get a car parking space at the motel car park.
Friendly staff, nice swiming pool, good room Poor breakfast (beverages - coffe and orange juice only, no tea or milk...)But the orange juice was excelent!
very pleasant very clean great locationtranspo to and from airport exceptional We booked two rooms several months before our stay. We indicated the need to have two bathrooms and that we were traveling with twin boys age 8. The rooms were not next to each other. They were close but not one or even two rooms apart. That was an unpleasant surprise when we arrived!
A generally positive experience, with comfortable accommodation and good location for access to Universal Studios. Breakfast facilities were minimal, no hot water for tea, no cereals available. It would also have been helpful if a cold water bubbler were available.
Convenient location Staff was not overly firendly and the rooms were substandard
Very big rooms, that includes a kitchen and a big bathroom The rooms smelled a litle bit bad
The excellent location ,well maintained and economical hotel has everything I need for my quick trips to Burbank. Unfortunately, my neighbors' TV woke me up at 5 AM and kept me up till I decided to get up and start my day.
New carpet, very clean room. Breakfast was great! Plenty of choices. Overall I would definitely recommend. Sink was backed up but was taken care of when we reported it.
Close to where I had to go for some meetings. Breakfast wasn't fancy, but ok and the hours were good. Good, secure parking facilities. Hardly any good eating places in the area. Still using old tv models! Room wasn't ready when we arrived at the door of the room.
The breakfast was good and the breakfast area was nice. Room was comfortable. The parking was scarce. We got to the hotel early but was afraid to leave because we were told we'd have to park behind another car and leave the keys so it could be moved it necessary. The area of town seemed a bit run down and not safe to walk in.
Having a variety breakfast, choice of hot or cold and a change every other day. The help in breakfast room always pleasant and kept everything filled, and cleaned up after the messy people. Didn't like having to pay $5. for a refrigerator in room, they were remodeling practically the whole floor and the cabinets where the micro and refrig went were empty so when we ask for the refrig were told it would be $5. so yes it was worth it for the days we were there although it was not very cold. Parking was an issue if you had to leave your keys with desk, when you are responsible for a rental having someone else have keys is a worry, and most aggravating is keys that become demagnetized and your room the farthest from desk and your tired and have to go back down for it to be fixed it happened twice
The location was very convenient for our needs -- we were visiting family and stayed there for several days. The room was large and comfortable with a sitting area.
We enjoyed the ease of the location to and from universal studios hollywood and traffic was not bad Late night staff seemed busy he was not very cheerful
This hotel was great for us. We got a large room with king bed and fold out queen. It was very clean and the location was great for us, we really appreciated how secure the hotel was. The breakfast in the morning was nice and it was walking distance to many fast food options and a grocery store right across the street. The only problem we had was with the shower, it was very clean and nicely redone, but the water pressure was horrible and I don't think the shower head was hooked up correctly. Other than that it was great.
Nothing Horrible neighborhood, there were prostitutes or what looked to be prositutes walking the streets all hours of the day. I had my 9 month old daughter and 7 year old son and i had to run out and buy sheets for our beds because my son found a condom in the bed. Overall this was the worst experience ive ever had in a hotel. I believe a Motel 6 would have been 10 times better.
Neighbourhood is run down, few restaurant options
it was cheap, had parking, close to my business meetings. 1. They did not have me listed as having a reservation. 2. From February 1 to Feb 3 I stayed in room 323 at the N Hollywood Comfort Inn. All was well but for one huge issue - the toilet seat looked disgusting. There was a brown ring around the inside of the seat itself. Upon closer inspection it was a ring of rust or the paint was scraped off - but frankly, it was very unappealing and made sitting extremely uncomfortable and disquieting. Considering a toilet seat can be bought for under $30 and is very easy to install I was shocked to see this in the room. Such an easy fix for such an obvious problem. Most discouraging...will I stay @ Comfort Inn again - I doubt it
The hotel was nice.
The pool is located poorly with almost no sunlight. The location is far from any decent walking or eating areas, thus requiring a car.

People in Lithuania are heading to the polling stations to cast their ballots in the first round of parliamentary elections.
Nearly three million people are expected to vote to elect members of the 141-seat parliament.
A total of 16 political parties are participating in the elections, but only five to eight parties are expected to pass the five percent threshold to enter the parliament, signaling complicated coalition talks.
Opinion polls show that Lithuania's ruling Social Democratic Party of Prime Minister Algirdas Butkevicius, which has 5.6 percent support, is likely to take the lead.
In case the leftist party does not win the elections, the opposition Homeland Union led by Gabrielius Landsbergis is likely to win power.
The centrist Lithuanian Peasant and Green's Union (LPGU) would take 14 percent, while the conservative Homeland Union enjoys 13.7 percent backing, local polls indicate.
Polling stations will close at 8 pm (1700 GMT). A second round will be held on October 23 in constituencies where no candidate wins a majority of votes.
Wage growth and job creation have been key rallying cries for candidates in the eurozone state, plagued by an exodus of workers seeking higher wages, many of them in Britain.
Lithuania's per capita income increased to 75 percent of the European Union (EU)'s average last year from 50 percent in 2004, when it joined the bloc. But growth has since stagnated.

Pet Sitter in Montreal
I have a 3.5 year old terrier/lab mix who is very sweet and loving, who suffers from slight anxiety at times (trains, loud cars/noises). He listens very well and is perfect besides that. I have to travel for work a few times a year (usually not more than 2-3 days at a time). I would need someone responsible and reliable to care for him. He is crate trained or can be let free (never had any issues with chewing). You can either stay at my house if that is easier or he can stay with you. Please contact me if you have experience with dogs with anxiety issues.

Why does the Los Angeles Times hate Obama?
Some people have no class.
Some conservatives suffer from such an acute case of Obama Derangement Syndrome that they can't even debate the issues of the day with out resorting to childish name-calling. For instance, look at these insulting phrases one right-wing blogger has recently used to describe the president of the United States:
- "the Real Good Talker [2]"
- "Smoker-in-Chief [3]"
- "the community organizer [4]"
- "ex-state senator [4]"
- "The Smoker [5]"
- "the nation's top talker [6]"
- "Duffer-in-Chief [8]"
Pretty shallow. But what do you expect from amateurish, fringe bloggers, right?
Here's the catch: The right-wing blogger in question doesn't post his childish put-downs at RedState or any one of other feral, Obama-hating sites. The blogger quoted above works for the Los Angeles Times, once considered to be one of the most important, prestigious newspapers [10] in the country in terms of political coverage. But no more. And that's in part due to the work of Laura Bush's former flack, Andrew Malcolm, and the way Times editors allow him to routinely use sneering [11], condescending language to describe the president of the United States -- language that clearly runs counter to the Times' own published guidelines.
So my question is a simple one: Why does one of the largest newspapers in the country allow its political writer to routinely disrespect the president in a casually insulting way? To portray the president as some kind of punk. And second question: What exactly is it about Obama that drives Malcolm to use such oddly inappropriate and flippant language? Is it Obama's youth? What?
Trust me, if Malcolm wants to make his living as a human [12] RNC talking [13] point, and [14] publish as [15] much misinformation [16] as he [17] can [18], that's certainly [19] his right [20]. (He's quite [21] proficient at [22] it, BTW [23].) And obviously I'm not suggesting there's anything wrong with raucous debate. We do it at County Fair all the time. But what Malcolm does on top of that is routinely belittle and demean the presidency in a strange, and clearly unprofessional, manner that reflects quite poorly on the Times.
As Media Matters' Jamison Foser noted [24] previously:
It's one thing to criticize the president or his administration for the things they do and say; that's obviously fair game. But Malcolm's treatment of Obama … is nothing more than childish name-calling, completely lacking in substance or reason. The only thing more odd than the LA Times' sanctioning this petty little sniping would be if any of Malcolm's readers find his tedious taunts amusing.
Remember when the Times was a serious, national newspaper? I do. Today, its political coverage, especially the stuff produced by its Top of the Ticket blog where Malcolm works, is often just excruciatingly lame. For some odd reason, the Times has decided to dumb down [25] its political product and position its site as a Michelle Malkin wannabe, and in a way no other major newspaper in the country has done, nor would ever dream of doing.
Somewhere, former Times publisher [10] Otis Chandler is turning over in his grave. Not just because of the hollow, right-wing politics of the Times' online political product. (Chandler was a proud liberal.) But because the product so uniformly sophomoric [26] and dishonest [23]. (i.e. It has nothing to do with journalism, or even opinion journalism.) The kind of relentlessly partisan, right-wing junk the Times site often produces, thanks to Malcolm, is just embarrassing [27] for a national newspaper that used to win prestigious prizes -- for a newspaper that once had aspirations higher than landing a Drudge link and wallowing in online hate [28].
And I don't even have to do a Google search to know for a fact that when President Bush was in office, there was nobody on staff at the Times, and certainly nobody writing off the opinion pages, who was allowed to so casually insult the office of the presidency on a regular basis.
So what is this about? Does the Times think it's clever and endearing to treat the president as a two-bit hood? And why does the Times allows one of its high-profile political writers to continually adopt a hateful Rush Limbaugh and Fox News-like tone and personally degrade the presidency? (Remember when conservatives demanded people respect the office of the presidency? No more.)
When I recently contacted the Times' reader representative, Deirdre Edgar, to ask about Malcolm's work, and specifically what guidelines the Times uses when editing his work, she emailed me: "Andrew Malcolm's comments are covered by the First Amendment, just as yours and mine are. Opinion writers are given wide berth to press their opinions." When pressed about the guidelines, she wrote back, "Opinion writers must follow The Times' guidelines on obscenity and taste issues."
Please note the Times' newsroom guidelines [29] [emphasis added]:
The overall goal is to maintain a clean, dignified and civil tone in all writing, in the paper and on the website.
Indeed, in 2008 when the newspaper updated its guidelines and emphasized its online content, the paper's deputy managing editor at the time, Melissa McCoy, stressed [30] that the one thing hadn't changed was the Times' desire "to maintain a clean, dignified and civil tone," and that adopting a conversational style online was not an invitation to abandon the newspaper's newsroom standards.
But today, referring to the president of the United States as "what's-his-name" represents the "clean, dignified and civil tone" that the Times strives for? Give me a break.
And please note that last year when a Top of the Ticket item (not written by Malcolm) ran in the print edition of the Times, and referred to former Vice President Dick Cheney, "spewing his critiques about the Obama administration," an editor quickly suggested [31] the tone and (loaded!) language of the blog post was out of bounds. And yet, when Malcolm routinely disparages the president in the most juvenile way possible, nobody inside the Times newsroom raises a hand in protest.
The other point Edgar stressed in her correspondence with me was that the California daily prides itself on its balanced commentary:
The Times' goal is to provide views across the political spectrum in its coverage as a whole. … The Times looks to provide a balance of coverage as a whole. It's zone coverage, not man-to-man. There is liberal commentary, and there is conservative commentary.
That's simply a joke. If you look at the Times' national political coverage, in terms of the daily partisan voices, there's Malcolm doing his B-level, Obama-hating shtick, and that's it. The Times' Top of the Ticket blog has for years essentially consisted of straight news/analysis items punctuated by Malcolm's Drudge-Lite routine. (And on that front, Malcolm was recently joined [32] by former Bush flack Jimmy Orr.) There is no sharply partisan liberal voice on the blog or any other of the Times' political commentary outlets.
Meaning, there is no balance [33]. At all.
Show me the Times blogger, for instance, who shows up on liberal talk radio, makes regularly appearances on The Rachel Maddow Show, and is linked to by key liberal bloggers while writing critically of the GOP leadership. That Times staffer does not exist. But the Times is happy to employ Malcolm, who makes his living feeding the GOP Noise Machine by spreading a constant stream of conservative misinformation? (FYI, I'm not exaggerating when I say that Malcolm's work revolves around cherry-picking polling results [27] that reflect poorly on Obama and then writing them up online. That's his job.)
It's no secret that the once-mighty Los Angeles Times, like so many big-city dailies, has fallen down financially and has suffered an enormous newsroom brain drain [34] though layoffs and buyouts. But why Times editors think the solution to that stripped-down media landscape is to allow someone like Malcolm to publish sneering, immature attacks on the president remains a mystery.
The Times claims it strives for balance in its political opinion, as well as a civil tone. But with the Obama-hating Malcolm, the paper fails on both counts.

"Kat Walkerson has a truly soulful voice, displaying great energy with her passion pouring out from her vocals. A kind soul that brings a warmth to any room she performs in, her voice is a perfect compliment to Mik's, who is The Garcia Project's "Jerry", a part he plays with humility and focus on the music to channel the spirit of the Fat Man."
"The Garcia Project Breathes Life into Jerry Garcia's Tunes...The vocalist on Saturday did a spot on job and transported the Theatre's crowd to a dusky night in the 1970s."
"In order for a tribute band to be successful, fans need to look at them as the authority on the artist they are emulating. The Garcia Project pulls it off effortlessly."
"The Garica Project is based in the 518, and are regional musicians who are "Deadicated" to carrying on the music and vibe of Jerry that so many still carry in their hearts."
"...if you close your eyes, you'll swear your at a JGB show."

Gibbers is a optional hamster partner in Paper Princess Peach. She is an optinal partner. Her parents are Woobers and Mitzy.
Gibbers is a young girl who dreams of being in an adventure. She is picked on by people at her school alot. She made a wish on Star Hill, wishing that a miracle could happen, and she would go on an adventure, and get out of the town. Peach came to this town to get a Crystal Heart. Gibbers didnt think that this girl was a savior- infact, Peach kept quiet about it. When Peach had defeated Vaati, Gibbers had given up hope to ever going on an adventure. She ran away from her home, and hid in Toad Town Sewers. Peach saw a trouble in the trouble center, saying to find a kid that is lost. Peach, helped them, and rescued Gibbers. Gibbers sais she was sorry to her family. However- the trouble was not over. In a twist of events, Gibbers mom and dad were actualy henchman of Vaati, and were waiting for the perfect time to strike. When everybody was unsespecting, Mitzy shot an energy beam from her paw at Peach, and Gibbers. the two of them flew out of the house, and went to Toad Town. Peach, after waking up, noticed the destruction of the town. Only her, her partners, and Gibbers were the remaining living things. Peach got up from the debris, and asked Gibbers if she was alright. Gibbers, painfully hurting, got up, and said no, and that she needed some medical attention. Peach picked up Gibbers, and took her to Toad Town- a destroyed place. Peach gasped when she saw. The toads were walkng around, awing the destruction. The hospital was still open, despite being burned down. Gibbers was fully heald after being to the doctor. Gibbers was happy with Peach for saving her- she joined Peach's team! Gibbers so called parents appeared however, and said that they would kill both of them for still being alive. Peach however, killed them both- along with the help of Gibbers. Bland Village, being destroyed, was no use to Peach now. However, Toad Town was fixed back up in a couple of days.

A judge has approved a plan to divide a $25.7 million settlement among 243 people who sued the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Louisville claiming priests molested them when they were children.
"The longer it drags on, the more they are forced to endure memories of the most painful times of their lives," Shake said in the ruling Friday.
Plaintiffs are expected to receive between $15,333 and $175,000 each.
The plaintiffs said the church knew they were molested as children by priests or other employees but concealed it and did nothing to stop it. The settlement was one of the largest against the Roman Catholic Church.
To determine individual awards, the victims will be divided into three classes according to severity of abuse. Other factors include the victim's age when the abuse occurred, how many times molestation occurred and whether the victim was given drugs, alcohol or pornography.
Payments should be made by mid-January, Turner said. Those unhappy with their shares may appeal.
Mike Turner, the original plaintiff in the case, said he was pleased by the judge's ruling. "I see an end, which is a great thing."

Governor, thanks
for the trash cans
I didn't vote for Gov. Chris Christie, but I do praise him for his attempts to help Atlantic City. For the first time in decades, there are trash and recycling receptacles on the corners in my Lower Chelsea neighborhood thanks to the Tourism District.

Atlantic City
Even legal guns
can be misused
The Jan. 22 letter, "Gun laws only affect law-abiding citizens," missed a big point. Nancy Lanza was a "law-abiding gun owner," but her son, Adam, was able to get his hands on her guns and destroy the lives of 27 families.
Having guns in the house makes them available to be stolen, picked up by a child or used by the owner for the wrong reasons. Just owning a gun legally doesn't necessarily make you a "law-abiding gun owner." You also must make sure that no one has access to these guns.
In the same Jan. 22 edition of The Press there was an article about a 15-year-old New Mexico boy who killed his whole family just by taking the guns out of a closet in his own house. He was stopped before he was able to go out and kill more people. So please stop saying that gun laws only effect law-abiding citizens. A gun stolen out of someone's house may one day kill someone you love.
More casino smoking
isn't what A.C. needs
Regarding the Jan. 7 article, "Revel may be rethinking no-smoking policy":
Did Revel's decision to ban smoking really hurt its business? All the casinos in Atlantic City are very slow now. Whether gamblers can smoke or not is not the reason for the casino business slowing down in Atlantic City. Stop using that as an excuse.
The people who told The Press that gambling and smoking go hand in hand are misinformed and far removed from what gamblers really have to say about why they don't come to Atlantic City as often as they used to.
Just ask some of the frontline workers at the casinos what the problem is with business. Just for starters, how about having free parking in the empty garages, free parking while shopping at The Walk, more meal comps, opening more than one or two restaurants during the week, getting the beggars and homeless off the casino floors and the streets, repaving Pacific Avenue and sprucing up that strip from end to end?
And let's start enforcing the city ordinance that bans smoking on 75 percent of the casino floor. After all, that's the law. The casinos in New York, Maryland, and Ohio are smoke-free, as are Delaware's racetrack casinos. So let's stop using the smoking excuse and move on as to why the casinos in Atlantic City are so slow. Only then will people come back.

Let retired officers
carry hollow points
Federal law gives retired law enforcement officers the right to carry a concealed weapon in any state, as long as the laws of the state of origin are complied with. The impression is that the government desires trained and experienced individuals to be an interior force against a criminal act in their presence.
As law-enforcement officers, we are well aware and well-trained regarding hollow point bullets, the optimum in stopping power. This ammunition is illegal for anyone outside of law enforcement to possess. But you read quite frequently about subjects being charged with possession of these bullets. These are the same individuals who do not care about or abide by the laws of this state or anywhere in the country.
But retired officers - who, by the way, must qualify on our weapons the same as an active officer - are forbidden from carrying this ammunition.
The dirt balls with a thirst for violence are out there and don't care about laws. They are everywhere, but so are we - retired law officers.
Please change the laws to allow retired police officers to at least have an equal stand against the criminals' fire power and allow us to carry hollow-point ammunition.

New Buena Vista leaders
are acting like dictators
On Jan. 7, Mayor Peter Bylone contacted me at 4 p.m., just three hours before the start of the Buena Vista Township annual reorganization meeting, to inform me that I was not being re-appointed to the Planning/Zoning Board as an alternate member for 2013 and 2014.
I was disappointed and angry, especially since I had received a letter dated Dec. 21 from the township clerk inviting me to the reorganization meeting to be reappointed. Prior to receiving that letter, the clerk's office had contacted me by phone and asked if I wanted to be reappointed, and I said "yes."
The actions of Township Committee members Bylone, Sue Barber and Richard Harlan are becoming more and more like a dictatorship.
Input from longtime committee members Chuck Chiarello and Teresa Kelly is being ignored, as they are both systematically being removed from every subcommittee so that their positions on Township Committee have been all but completely neutralized. Kelly had served the Planning/Zoning Board for 18 years and was also removed. Is this a democratic government? I think not.

It won the title that year and did excellent in the hands of Melandri the following year. It seems to me that Sykes is very hard on tyres and / or cant make the tyres last a race. Perhaps he could steady his pace at the start of a race instead of trying to win in the first few laps, he obviously has the speed but does he have the skill to ride a bike for a whole race and still have tyres left to fight for a win. On this years results no. That bike in the hands of Melandri or Baggi, maybe Checa would be up there until the end most races. Seen your posts before and feel you dont see the wood for the trees, just my humble non championship winning opinion. 7 agree 0 disagree

Aminoacylase 1 (ACY1), a metalloenzyme that removes amide-linked ACY1 groups from amino acids and may play a role in regulating responses to oxidative stress. Both the C-terminal fragment found in the two-hybrid screen and full-length ACY1 co-immunoprecipitate with SphK1. Though both C-terminal and full-length proteins slightly reduce SphK1 activity measured in vitro, the C-terminal fragment inhibits while full-length ACY1 potentiates the effects of SphK1 on proliferation and apoptosis. It suggested that ACY1 physically interacts with SphK1 and may influence its physiological functions. As a homodimeric zinc-binding enzyme, Aminoacylase 1 catalyzes the hydrolysis of N alpha-acylated amino acids. Deficiency of Aminoacylase 1 due to mutations in the Aminoacylase 1 (ACY1) gene follows an autosomal-recessive trait of inheritance and is characterized by accumulation of N-acetyl amino acids in the urine.
