Idlewild Packages (Flight + Hotel)

My wife and I stayed here 5 years ago and loved it. We came back hoping to re-experience the same fun but unfortunately it was a bit underwhelming. While not a bad hotel by any stretch, LA (post covid) has really gone downhill and that's reflected in many of their hotels. The rooms are a bit worn, the colors a bit faded, scratch-marks on the walls or floorboards that wouldn't have existed a few years ago are present. It just fell a bit flat. Let me be clear, I would stay here again! But namely when traveling for business. It just wasn't the cute/special little artsy hotel we experienced as newlyweds.

La estadía estuvo bien, aunque la zona no era muy segura. Pero la propiedad en general estuvo bien, buena limpieza.

The room was clean and as advertised. It was slightly smaller than expected but fine. Virtual check in was a little annoying just because the internet took a long time and we were checking in late and it didn't feel completely safe standing out there, but overall it was fine.

My stay was decent. I think my experience would have been different ultimately had the 3 people working the front desk were friendly and helpful and not rude. I will never stay here again. Period.

Love the location and retro vibe. Super friendly staff. We stay here several times a year and we feel like family.
