Room was small but nice & clean. Great shower, nice marble bathroom. Walls were thin...traffic outside was loud and sound of shower running in other rooms kinda shook our walls....but we still managed to sleep like rocks for two nights which was what we needed. Internet connection was rocking too, which is also a necessity for us (we travel for a living). Nice folks.

We booked the motel as it has a lot of good reviews on tripadvisor, however we were a bit disappointed during our stay.

First of all, the room had a distinctive urine smell that we couldn't get rid of. And the double beds were more like king singles - prior to Rodeway we had also stayed at different low budget motels/hotels in the US but the beds were all bigger. The breakfast wasn't that great, we got a danish and the coffee was.. errr.. not like coffee - but I suppose we can't really complain as the breakfast was complimentary.

The worst part of our stay is that I woke up with lots of bites on my limbs on the last day. The motel manager seemed to think that it was some sort of allergy but if it was, the red dots would have covered my whole body (I only got them on fingers, arms and legs). I do have to make it clear that I don't know if this was Rodeway's fault, I mean the bugs might have been hiding in my luggage so they could be from the last hotel. The manager was concerned enough about my well-being, and advised me to get some medicine from a local pharmacy store.

Good things about Rodeway. Well, it is close to a petrol station and a few fast food restaurants. It is on a big road so not hard to find (having a GPS in LA is a must). Strong fast free wi-fi. The staff are definitely very friendly and helpful. For the price we pay, this wasn't a bad choice.

All I wanted was a decent, reasonably priced hotel in the LA area for two nights just to sleep in the night. I decided to book this one after reading so many positive reviews on Trip advisor. In fact I was a bit surprised to see a Rodeway Inn to be ranked in the top 10 hotels in LA. I was very curious to see if it lived up to its high ranking.

After staying, I should say that it's a very well maintained motel even if it is not located in the best part of town. It's on a industrial section of a very busy highway with a rather seedy looking hotel to one side and a strip club across the road. We felt a bit apprehensive about safety initially but no had no problems whatsoever. Parking is a bit cramped especially if you have a bigger vehicle and arrive late in the night. The room was very comfortable and all appliances lwere new. The manager was very friendly and seemed very eager to keep his guests comfortable.

Breakfast is nothing to boast of - just juice/coffee and a few take away items that you would get at a gas station.

Overall, I would say it is a good choice for someone looking a place to sleep and proximity to highways. But all things considered, I don't think the hotel deserves such a high ranking.

Rooms are clean and manager is helpful but the place is old and seems to attract a certain type of clientele ( fighting in room, playing radio loud, loud talking ), I guess thin walls are just a fact of life in these types of cheaper motels. Motel is right off major street with lots of traffic so
that can wake you up early in the morning. My room was in back and faced a plumbing business that started making a racket at 5:30 am. My friends stayed in one of the front rooms so were bothered by traffic noise. If you`re a light sleeper, you should avoid this place.
