Beautiful interesting place

8/10 Very good

Nice place great staff
The hotel is very nice although rooms are smallish. Hotel staff was great. Only issue was that they hosted a private party in their dining area the first night that they allowed to flow into the parking area right outside the hotel rooms. The party was loud and boisterous and continued to well after midnight. The next morning I notified management and they were kind enough to comp the night’s charge. Would definitely stay here again

2/10 Poor

Not a great experience
There was a party right at the front door, very noisy, cold draft coming through; no particularly friendly staff at front desk; would not recommend; unsure whether the location makes up for the shortcomings (which are plenty)

Ok for looks but not convenient
Hotel has nice feel about it. Located a bit out of the way if you dont have a car. Opposite farmers market and the grove so food available. Never used any of the amenities fee as not convenient. I bit overpriced

Charming property tucked away across from a great Farmers Market and The Grove, an outdoor mall filled with shops and eateries The hotel has a wonderful bar / restaurant . Food is delicious and drinks creative and tasty . The courtyard is a special place to relax and at night it becomes magical . The attention to detail is what helps to make this property shine. Highly recommend

Short Stories is a quant hotel that’s centrally located to various shops, museums and restaurants. Their staff is very friendly and accommodating to any need! The Atrium is very welcoming and relaxing whether resting from a busy day or enjoying a nice dinner! I’ll definitely return! Thanks :).

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel, area ok, not overly the prettiest area. Valet service where you text for them to bring your car did not work but only took a minute or so for them to bring the car from asking in person. Breakfast next door was nice, king room more than big enough but we left our 5 night stay after 2 days as LA is a mess, nothing to do with the hotel
