The Audemar

Housekeeping staff was pleasant. Property was convenient for our trip. Room was kind of small for 2 beds in a room. Floor had some black stains in the corner and the iron had rust on it which ruined my mom’s white shirt. Experienced some heavy rain which ended up leaking into our room. Manager was not really responsive which makes me wonder if it was a real emergency would they be the same. I understand that bad weather is out of the control of the hotel but for them to have a leak and no help or compensation is unacceptable; especially if it was a previous problem that was supposedly address. I don’t expect to pay $500 and sleep in a room that is dripping water onto my bed. Definitely won’t be staying again even if it is convenient.

This is not your standard hotel The rooms are unusual and painted all black. Sp**** furnishings, limited amenities. The hotel apparently only has 12 rooms, I got there just after the manager left, at 10 PM, instruction to call on my phone, he gave me the two door codes and the room code. The lobby is little more than a bar. The TV is on some app type service and the signal frequently breaking up, you do use a standard remote. It is in an older office building and business area with little around at night,immediate area, basically almost deserted, coffee shop across the street however for the morning. Lots of stuff maybe 3- 6 blocks away like theaters. There is a place to pull in to unload your car at the end of the row of parking spaces. If you can find a spot in front of the hotel, you can park 8PM-8AM free and use an app( see the meters) to buy 2 hours for 2 bucks at 8 AM. Note the number on the meter. Lots of parking lots around. There is a small fridge with a half bag of ice and a electric pot to boil water but no coffee service. Only real complaint: there was not a glass in the room and no tissues in the holder. Not surprisingly there is a lot of street noise. I don't know if the area has a lot of crime. Being from NYC, I was not afraid but knew I had to use all my street smarts outdoors at night to be sure. It was an odd rather than bad experience.

You have to be prepared, there is no one at the property. You need to call a number to get the code to the gate, the code to the main door and the code to your room. Every lock is a key pad. The AC in the room is a window unit which allow all the sound of the very busy and noisy street to filter into the room. Good luck trying to sleep. All the bedding is 100% polyester. There are no hair dryer. There is no desk. There is no way to safely lock your bedroom door from the inside. Someone with the code to your room can easily get in. The fridge in the room is nice with a separate freezer. If you are going to the CMC, Cooper Building and the New Mart, the location is great.

Amazing property. The inside is very nice and clean. Only downside is that, if you're traveling from overseas and don't have a State side phone, you have to borrow someone's phone to call them to get the codes to get in. If the place would reach out via email or message through the app, that would have been helpful in getting the codes.

We booked because the website indicated they had safes and we took the time to confirm in advance. This was not the case for the room we were in and the only accommodation offered was that they could send maintenance the following morning. They provided a code that “should work” but didn’t and even then, how secure is a safe when staff has to give you the code. The positive was that it was walking distance to our event.

Staff was friendly and efficient. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Easy walking to the Orpheum. Would definitely stay again!

This place is pleasant surprise. I highly recommend if you’re visiting downtown Los Angeles you stay at this hotel. Everything was just really good. The style and the hotel staff are 5 star.

Love this quaint boutique hotel! Check in was a breeze. Both owners were friendly and attentive! Security is on point. Yes you need codes to get in but that made me feel a lot safer! Room was clean and spacious! Price is great for downtown LA! Will definitely be back! Paulie’s Deli next door has yum yum food as well!!

Very convenient location for attending LA Fashion tradeshows. Comfortable bed. Owner very accommodating and personable.
