"The Loews hotel is perfectly nice and if you need to be near the Hollywood Bowl or anything on that side of Hollywood Hills it’s well-located. It is a huge hotel with very long lines throughout. The pool is ridiculously small but well kept up. The linens are good quality. It’s lacking character as a true Hollywood luxury hotel."
