Booked this hotel because I am a member of the Priority Rewards Club and it was close to Loyola Law School where I was to attend a seminar the next morning. When I pulled into the parking lot the check in location was not early to see. Parking lot was adequately lit, but hotel is at the base of a... more

They did not have my reservation, and the front desk operation is very outdated-a hand written reservation system. On check out the bill was a very 80's looking invoice. The Breakfast Bar was terrible-zero selection and no hot food or even peanut butter. No exercise room. Very scary neighborhood. All rooms open to the outside. Front desk staff not very... more

Front desk staff at check in was ok but not particularly welcoming. Front desk staff at checkout was downright rude and obnoxious when I asked for another copy of my receipt. No "sure no problem", "have a nice day", "thanks for staying for 2 days", just a pissed off attitude. Accommodations were average. Rooms open to the outside which isn't... more

Hotel is recently renovated and does not represent some of the earlier reviews of this property. Now a Holiday Inn Express it is in a dicey neighborhood right off the 101. Regular HIE guests may be disappointed by the layout here. All room entrances are exterior doors and the hotel is close to the 101. If you get placed on... more

The previous (and only) review is way too outdated! They have since remodelled...all the rooms have new carpet, new furniture, decor..and the housekeeping staff keeps the rooms so clean! Much better improvement!!! A little pricey at times of the year but hey, this is L.A.!!! Kudos! more

To be clear, this is the Holiday Inn Express at Silverlake, not Hotel 250 at silverlake, not sure why the confusion on the name. Even the shuttle service from the airport also had a hard time figuring out what hotel I was seeking transportation to, even though the hotel referred me to their service. They had to go by the... more

I recently attended a conference in LA. I was not planning on going, so my late booking left me with no hotel options close to the Convention Center. The closest, decent thing I could book was the HI Express at Silver Lake. First of all, this is NOT a family resort hotel. A quick Google Earth of the area will... more

The fist room we were given was on the forth floor. We though no problem. There is no fourth floor on the elevator. You had to get off on the third floor and climb a flight of steps. The second room smelled like cigarettes and underarms. We did n't even go inn all of the way. The walkway did not... more

Excellent NEW room! The room was so new you can smell the new paint and carpet. I was at this hotel last year and it was OK, I must say I was surprise when i walk in the room. The staff is very nice. The area is OK, but very close to Downtown and Hollywood. more
