AC Hotel Downtown Los Angeles

The room was very clean, and the staff was absolutely incredible—kind, helpful, and welcoming throughout our stay. However, the parking situation was a nightmare. The only option was valet parking, which wasn’t made clear in advance. Finding the entrance was confusing, and once we finally did, we learned valet was mandatory at $63 per day. The valet staff were very friendly, but I prefer the flexibility to park and access my car on my own schedule. There was a nearby hotel offering parking for $40/day, but the back-and-forth logistics made that option impractical. The room itself was stylish and well-kept but extremely small with minimal privacy. I was traveling with kids for a cheer competition, so we had a lot of gear, and there just wasn’t enough space. The room only had a small table under the TV, a few nightstands, and a bench—no real space for extra luggage or to move around comfortably. The layout was tight, especially between the bed and furniture. The bathroom setup was a major downside. There was no separate bathroom area—just a shower and toilet with no full wall or door for privacy. With a group of young girls in the room, this made things really awkward, especially when I wasn’t feeling well and needed a private space. There was no fan or door to close off the bathroom area completely, which was a big issue. While the room was clean overall, I did notice dust in some areas—on the top shelves, above the fridge, and on the showerhead. I always do a wipe-down when I check in, and while the floors and surfaces were generally clean, those harder-to-reach spots had been missed. There also weren’t enough hooks or space to hang and organize clothing or gear. Overall, the cleanliness and staff were great, but the lack of space, privacy, and clear parking info really took away from the experience. Because of the room layout alone, I wouldn’t choose this hotel again—especially when traveling with kids or for an event where space is a must.

I would never stay there again. While I was taking a shower, cockroaches came out of the drain. The customer service was also very poor, and the front desk girl was incredibly rude. Despite informing them that I was there for work, they placed me next to the exit, resulting in constant door slamming throughout the night. When I went to retrieve my car from valet, they informed me that I wasn't the only one who had experienced cockroaches in the room, and that I was right to have checked out early. I highly advise against booking this hotel, as they clearly have a serious pest infestation problem!! .

Good location but it wasn’t one of the best staff service I have experienced
