Home2Suite hotel stay was pleasant with the exception of not having the room ready at check in until after 8pm. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was great as well! Overall, the experience was pleasant.
The hotel is located in the best area for walking around and only a block from USC campus. We parked at their free parking lot and walked everywhere we needed to go. Small breakfast buffet style in the morning was a great plus before hitting the road again.
The stay is always the best when we come to town. Great area for walking. Quiet neighborhood. The staff is incredible. From the greetings of Eric ,Kaneshia and Destiny daily were enough to know that they are great workers and enjoy the job. They all went above and beyond for our daughter’s 11th birthday.
The rooms are big and fairly clean, and the location is good. But the pool was broken and the free breakfast was terrible.
I had a couple strips of bacon only because it was semi close to the real thing (though still thin as paper). I tried a sausage biscuit, but it was hard and the biscuit fell apart like sand when I bit into it. Then I tried oatmeal but it was all stuck on the scooper so I could barely get any to come off into my bowl. If you want food, you’re going to have to pay for the overpriced bar and grill that’s there or go elsewhere to eat.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The rooms were very spacious, comfortable, and clean.
Room was clean, space and complimentary waters and popcorn were given during check in which was a nice touch. Area was nice but did have a few homeless people nearby which is expected in downtown but it did not affect my stay. Breakfast was as expected. Overall it was a good stay and the indoor pool was convenient during colder stays.
