Quiet and reasonable. The people who run it are very nice. Rooms are clean and comfortable. If your on a budget i reccomend the Park motel. Its 10 minutes to universal studios or Hollywood. 20 minutes to the Garment district.

Park Motel is a very small, low key Motel located right off of Coldwater canyon and ventura blvd. In studio city. The easiest way to recognize it is by its olive green color. My fiance and I went to stay there for a few weeks. When we drove in the first time we were a bit worried based on how things looked like, but I have to tell you that was further than the truth. We checked in in no time and got situated in our room. I have to say to my surprise, the rooms are very big compared to other small motels we've been at. It's an older building but everything functions fine and you get refrigerator and a microwave in each room which is a lot more than most. The owner, Rocky is great! He is very hospitable, very respectful and helpful which says A LOT. Our experience with other motels isn't the same so we were glad to find out that this Motel is different. The price is average (could be a bit better but honestly just for not dealing with the average Motel owners, and have someone like Rocky it's worth it). So if you are looking to stay at a low key Motel, where no one is in your business, and no one is bugging on you every 5 minutes before checking out, this is the place for you. Highly Recommended!

Great hideaway. Place has a nostalgic feel and a haunting quality due to all the "ghosts in the closet". 100 years old it still has all the old fixtures but modern CCTV to give you a sense of security. Prices are right amd each room is different and unique.
