Hotels near Anchor Bible Church, Los Angeles

Can see the hotel has a bit long history, though still clean enough, no bed bugs, I am in 1004. Location close to little Tokyo, for Asian like me it’s very cozy and convenient. Price during trade show in convention center is around 200USD per night without breakfast. I am alone and I got a big room with two queen beds. Every day after work I feel warm and peaceful staying here.

Amazing rooms and great staff. Before my arrival received a welcome text from the staff. I did use Amex fine resorts and initially I was in a smaller room but I got upgraded to a suite! The suite was probably the nicest room I have ever stayed in. Totally worth it to upgrade. Beautiful rooms. Restaurants on site have a great patio and outdoor experience. Cocktail bar was great as well. I loved the ability to sit around in the lounge as they had ample seating available for anyone waiting for their room. Will stay here again if I am in LA. Only downside is that there isn’t much in terms of night life in this area but there is a museum and other things across from the hotel. The pool outdoor was also very nice

Nice spacious room. Old building but well maintain. Location is in downtown, I have no problem with the hotel safety but you need to be careful when walking in surround area

Could easily be zero stars. Original room was 93 degrees upon check in, the air conditioning unit was poor by anyone's standard, we asked to switch rooms. They did not offer to come get our bags, or move us to a new room so we brought our luggage back down to the front desk. We were then given a second room. Again, no offer made to accompany us and see if the new room was up to standards. This room was 92 degrees upon entry. After a second phone call, they sent up staff to change the filters on the AC unit. That team told us the AC was functioning well and blowing cold air (it was blowing cold air as if you had a few ice cubes in your mouth and blew on my neck) and to use the blackout curtains (after a sort of condescending explanation of what blackout curtains do) and give it some time for the AC to work. We went out to dinner for about two hours and came back to a nice cool 87 degree room. We once again took our belongings back downstairs. We were then told by the front desk staff that since we booked a room with a king size bed all of those rooms faced the sun and would all have similar problems (why would that be an acceptable answer?) and they could do nothing more for us since they accommodated us once already. I had no idea their idea of accommodating someone was to put them in a room with the same problem that the previous room had but what do I know, I am not in the hospitality industry. We were then told that the hotel was completely booked so no further ”accommodations” could be made. We asked for a refund and this is the first time they reacted with some conviction, they were happy to let us leave. Must be nice to be able to turn away business. At no time were there any apologies, any remorse, just matter-of-factly let us leave. My wife and I don't argue or yell, we never feel its worth it, but we left angry and hotel-less on a Saturday night in Los Angeles. We scrambled to find a new hotel but the damage was done, they took our entire Saturday away from us, which no refund could ever compensate for, they temporarily took our joy to be in town on our own as we are parents and do not get much time away. We did take our business elsewhere, to a Hilton, they seem to understand that to relax you need a room that is slightly cooler than a sauna. We were able to salvage the remaining days of our trip. Also the elevators at the Freehand are old (charming?) and constantly in use because of the rooftop bar so it took us waiting for a few packed elevators to get up and down to the hot AF rooms which probably added to our level of frustration. But it was mostly the Sahara like environment of the hot room. Did I mention the rooms were hot? Also maybe use a free hand to open a book on what hospitality looks like, I think your staff may be surprised. (see what I did there?)

Room was not cleaned properly. The carpet hasn’t been vacuumed in months and it was quite dirty. However when complained to the hotel, they took responsibility and cleaned it right away.

At ten o 'clock in the morning, the attendant knocked on the door and asked if we needed to check out and clean the room. This will wake us straight from sleep. When we needed an extra bottle of mineral water, we were told that the check-out time was only ten minutes away, so we could not be provided with extra water.

Sorry to say there is little to like about this hotel. If you arrive by car (as most will- who rides the LA metro?) you will need to park in the recommended parking garage a few doors down. It is run-down and filthy (check out my photo of the parking garage elevator). Overnight parking is $30. My ”upgraded” hotel room was perhaps the smallest I've even stayed in. No fridge, no place to put your luggage, no coffee maker, no table to eat or work at (there is a very small bar height platform and one bar chair), and filthy windows (see photo). I will give them praise for the comfy bed and pillows. As a Hilton Diamond you get a $9 per day food/drink credit. And you will need it. An ok burger on the rooftop bar costs $29 (see photo, fries not included) before taxes and tip. The restaurant served food an hour after opening and couldn't serve a basic soft drink. It's downtown LA, so expect a sketchy neighborhood, many surly homeless encounters and lots of empty storefronts (great job Mayor Bass). You will not want to walk around the area after dark. The photo of the rooftop bar seems to be photoshopped. The view is generally rooftop a/c units and parking garages, not modern skyscrapers. I'm a loyal Hilton member, but the Wayfarer is a hard pass when next in downtown LA.

Front Desk - Average, they are cool and get their job done, but make me feel that I may have ruined their day (; Bell Desk - Good, much better experience and they are friendly Cleanliness - Good Shower - Excellent, great and consistent hot water pressure Room - Poor Non-stop water pipe running noise from the air-conditioning. Non stop blinking message light on the phone. Housekeeping knocked on the door at 10:15 to rush you to check out (check out time 11:00am) Security - Poor. Non hotel guest was allowed to trespass in the lobby and guest lift. Will I stay here again - Probably, for price and location.

This is one of the best hotels I stayed in LA, I really enjoyed staying in the k-town area, great selection of restaurants, well-stocked supermarkets, close to the metro station and the hotel staff were extremely helpful, I will def come back to this hotel and for sure will recommend this hotel to everyone :)
