  • Nothing.
  • Paper thin walls.

“Mildew in the bathrooms, parking was almost impossible, paper thin walls (I could hear the neighbor snoring), uncomfortable beds. Do not stay here.”

  • Located in little Tokyo the hotel was a standout in a shabby neighborhood.
  • Shabby neighborhood.

“I read mixed reviews of this hotel. However, the hotel was clean, modern, and lovely. I am disabled and we got a handicapped room with an interesting attachment to the toilet. My husband loved it! The dining was mostly Japanese food for lunch and dinner, but they had regular American breakfast along with Japanese.”

  • Clean and convenient with good service.
  • Room had a musty smell.

“Nice hotel if you can get it through Priceline. Probably not worth paying full price. The location in Japan town made it very convenient to access several Japanese restaurants. I would stay here again if had to be in the area.”

  • Nice rooms, good central location.
  • Parking too expensive.

“This is not about this hotel specifically, but is there a way to find hotels that don't charge an arm and a leg for parking.”

  • The valet was very fast.
  • The staff was incredibly rude, and some didn't speak English.

“I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. The staff was rude, the rooms were uncomfortable, and the bathroom wasn't clean. When I called to ask for an extra pillow I was questioned as to why I needed one, I was asked just how many people we had staying in the room, and finally was informed that he didn't know where any extra pillows were but if he found one he would bring it up. Needless to say I never got my extra pillow. Very poor hotel.”

  • Convenient to LA Mart shuttle route.
  • No pool or free workout access.

“Overall the hotel was ok, the bed was pretty hard so I didn't rest real well. For regular American food all that was available was small croissant sandwiches. But is was clean and quiet.”

  • The location and overall pleasantness of the room were great!
  • I was not allowed to check in early without paying a half-day rate.

“A great small hotel with awesome amenities in a great location. Little Tokyo in Downtown LA. Very low-key but well appointed and clean.”

  • Nothing.
  • Old, shabby room that smelled, bad location.

“I would not consider this a 3 star hotel. The room was shabby and run down. The paint was peeling in the shower area and the sink surface was flaking away. I would not have felt safe going outside after 7:00PM. No American food anywhere nearby.”

  • No one spoke English.

“The hotel was located in the Japanese part of Los Angeles. No one spoke great English, and there weren't a lot of American restaurants, all Japanese food.”

  • The kids and I loved the bidet in the bathroom - something new for all of us.
  • The lobby is in dire need up renovation. The furnishings are delaminating and dated.

“The location of the hotel; its proximity to the freeway and LA attractions is great. It is in general a bit dated on the inside and can use some renovation and sprucing up. The linens were clean, and rooms were cleaned well. The staff was not especially friendly, but not rude either. Perhaps it was a cultural thing - all staff was Asian as it is a Japanese Hotel in Little Tokyo.”

  • It was clean.
  • Rude. Pretentious. No knowledge of English language employees who open your door at 3 a.m. while you are sleeping.

“First off, it took me forever to check in, and the man at the front desk spoke poor English, and was entirely rude and insensitive. There was a group of strange people walking in off the street that clearly werent staying at the hotel just loitering in the lobby and staring at people. The room was clean, but nowhere near as nice as what the picture suggested and not to what one would consider a 3 star hotel in LA. At 3 am, I was awakened by an employee rudely barging in. At checkout, I just wanted to leave, but I was pleasantly greeted by woman at the front desk who couldnt speak English either. She then proceeded to ask me "how many bottles of water did you drink?", and I said "why? Does it matter? They were literally next to the bed in the open with no sign or anything suggesting that they not be complimentary, and she proceeded to tell me that they are a dollar a bottle! I said, "yes, we drank three, and hurry up and charge them to the card so that I can just get out of here, and get this place over with. I am completely let down, and I will never bring them business or referrals!”

  • Freeway access.
  • Staff, parking arrangements.

“This was my 3rd stay at this location. By far this, hotel is the worst. Of my 3 stays none have satisfied my expectations. I was not allowed to check in unless I used "Valet parking". The attendant asked us walk with our luggage and 2-month-old child from a parking lot located 1 block behind the Hotel.”

  • Amazing Shiatsu massage, friendly staff, convenient location.
  • Wasn't really "upscale" (3-star); had to leave hotel to get good meals

“I am very happy I ended up at the Miyako. Its central location (near two freeways and less than 20 minutes from everything) made it easy for me to see LA on a short trip. Friendly and efficient staff made it easy for me to get my car and luggage in and out. Nice bed linens and a squirting toilet seat! A short stroll to great Japanese restaurants in Little Tokyo. I had what was probably the best massage of my life at the hotel spa. This is not really an "upscale" establishment (basic rooms and mediocre restaurants), but you can get a great deal and really enjoy your trip with the Miyako as your home base. I would definitely stay there again. Seriously, get a Shiatsu massage here.”
