Very noisy area. They provided ear plugs and a sound machine but between the LAX air traffic (which is to be expected), the construction on the Intuit Dome (right behind the hotel), and noisy/disrespectful neighbors and paper thin walls, didn’t get much rest. However, the location was convenient for seeing a show at the forum. I must have missed where this is a “self service” hotel. Not sure what is meant by that since I’m paying normal hotel prices but they don't provide basics like bottled water, daily housekeeping, etc. unless you pay extra for it. The only thing not “self service” was the parking of course which they make you valet even though the lot was right behind the hotel and easily accessible. Overall not a terrible stay, but definitely not the best for the price and what you get.
