My stay at the Cara Hotel was wonderful. It was just what I needed at the last minute. The room was spotless, comfortable, well appointed, with just the right amenities. From the valet to the desk managers, to the housekeeping staff and restaurant staff, everyone I encountered was friendly and courteous, and made me feel comfortable and welcomed. The night manager was especially helpful when I needed an extra blanket and space heater for warmth.

A great find

The Cara was a lovely oasis tucked away in East Hollywood. The rooms were simple but chic, quiet and comfortable, with a nice balcony to enjoy a morning coffee overlooking a gorgeous courtyard. Had breakfast and dinner here and both meals were delicious and staff attentive. I'll definitely be staying here again.

The staff was very attentive. We got in late and in the morning we were looking out on a garbage dump with garbage in them . It felt less like a boutique hotel and more of a motel In busy area surrounded by large brand retailers This was bare bones open closet, The room was small but clean the public areas were lovely
