This may be the cheapest motel, not worth of your money. If you book online you will be totally surprised to see the rooms. My tavel agent called them suites and is not worth of a avg motel room. I don't recommend this a family, esp with kids.

A small dark stuffy room with a noisy and not very efficient aircon unit! Full size fridge and mircowave provided, no coffee machine. Nowhere close to get coffee/breakfast nearby. Close to Universal Studios, about it's only redeeming feature.

We stayed at room #4 and it was a good sized but the carpet wasnt vaccummed at all. The bathroom was ugly and the fan didnt work and people could see through it. The fridge was dirty (no joke) and in a very akward place! The beds were so noisy, just by sitting on them! Probably the next room could... More

So disappointing, I left after 1 night even though I paid for 5. Tiny room, horrible bed, no bathtub and I had to stuff towels into the crack between the door and and the door jam to attempt to stop the cold December draft. Super 8 a few miles away was clean, served breakfast, the rooms were secure, clean and... More

I stayed at this Inn for 2 weeks with my 9yr old son and my mother. The staff are very friendly and very helpful, especially Anna. Since my son has food allergies we requested a refrigerator to be able to keep special items for him. They set one in the room at no extra cost! They also set a table... More

I stayed at this Inn for 5 days while attending a seminar at the Hilton Universal Studio. It was the best value for my money since I only slept and showered at this Inn. If you are looking for more amenities, be willing to pay more. The staff is friendly, especially the manager, Anna. My room was made up when... More

I would not stay there again. We only wanted a quick sleep while on our travels, so I booked this place knowing that it will be no-frills – but it was very dated and extremely basic, it felt rather boy-scoutish. The towels were the size of a post stamp, blankets on the beds looked like something from Alcatraz (I might... More

The El Patio Inn located in Studio City California is your generic basic motel. Its located about 10 mins driving time from the nearest train station with access to Hollywood and also is about a 10 min drive to Universal Studios where once you arrive there your required to pay to park but the motel says its close by. All... More

I actually really liked this place. My boyfriend and I stayed here a few months ago. This hotel is very small, with one little parking lot and all the rooms surround it. Check in was easy and the woman at the desk was nice. The rooms are very nice and different than a standard hotel room. They have a 50s... More
