Great response to customer's need

The Best Western Gradon Gate Inn's staff was very helpful. I went to L.A. to take a test. The guests live next to my room were talking so loud and I need some quiet time to review my material and have a good night sleep. I requested the front desk to change to room for me. The staff at front desk, after make a phone call, arranged me to the other room which is more isolate and quiet. I am very please for the re-arrangement. I have some quiet time to study and sleep. Next day I was doing very on my test. I appreiciated this.

Very combientient, clean and great value

The Best Western Dragon Inn was very comfortable. The rooms are clean and safe. The staff are very freindly and helpful. There is a refrigerator in the room that makes convient and helpful. It is located in the heart of Chinatown surrounded by lots of shops and excellent restaurants. It is also close to dowtown LA and vicity. There is a hotel parking, but charge an $8 fee/night which the surrounding lot change between $3-$5. I will definetly come and stay at the Best Western Dragon Inn again. I just wish that I have known this hotel before.

Close to attractions

The Best Western Dragon Gate Inn in Los Angeles, California was right in the middle of downtown LA. I loved staying there because I could walk to Chinatown each morning to enjoy dim sum. The people there just ignore you and let you enjoy the surrounding. Most of the food are good deals and so are the merchandises. From the hotel it only took me 15 minutes to get to Universal Studio, where my friends and I stayed all day. The room was somewhat spacious and it had a fridge that kept our drinks cold. When we were all worn out from visiting the many attractions, the hotel room was a welcome site. The area surround the hotel was very peaceful and it made me feel safe and carefree.

Sightseeing tip: Short drive from hotel

There is Universal Studio and Six Flag Theme park to the north, Hollywood to the west and many beaches to the south west of the hotel. If a person enjoy Vietnamese cuisine then it's a 30 min drive south on I5 to Santa Ana where the hub of many Vietnamese restaurant and shopping mall can be found.

Eclectic mix of guests

I was on a trip to the L.A. Mart for the first time and location was important to me so I selected this hotel which is a straight shot down Hill Street to the Mart. The hotel is in an older part of town and in the heart of China Town. The guests were from all over the world. All were fun and pleased with the hotel, as were we. The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable. I would stay there again.

The staff were very helpful.

The staff were very helpful. The complimentary breakfast was excellent: a choice of cereals, waffles, bagels, muffins, juice and coffee. Enjoyed the location - walking distance to Walt Disney Hall and Cathedral. Chinatown was fun!

Value for your money

The room was a little larger than your average room and included two double beds, a table with two chairs. You are right in the heart of Chinatown, so if you are on a business trip, downtown is nearby, but if you are sighseeing, most of the shops in Chinatown open after 11:00 am. There is an underground parking lot that is not operated by the hotel and it will cost you $8/day. Just one elevator that's not to fast but since it was a leisure trip, it was ok. The comp breakfast is very limited but it was a bargain for the price of the room.
