10/10 Exceptional

Clark Street Diner (inside hotel) was excellent, hotel bar was popular and had a great staff. Location is awesome for Hollywood Blvd bar scene and convenient to Hwy 101 for driving around LA. Front desk staff tried to pressure us into valet parking ($40/night) and rooms are cleaned only by request, but otherwise an excellent choice.
