Friendly Hills Inn - Whittier, Los Angeles

It was better than a Motel 6. "Level 2" on the "Patel Motel Scale". One of the bedside lights was broken which meant light had to come from the overhead lights which were a cold, too-bright, harsh white light suited for a factory rather than a hotel. It sound slike a ridiculous criticism but they made the whole room soooo unpleasant, like I was in a dentists chair. Speaking of chairs, one arm of the one chair in the room was broken. There was a one cup coffee maker with only one cup only and no supplies except a single coffee pouch for the machine no creamer of sweetener. In the bathroom: small tissue-thin towels.

No internet. We weren’t able to wacht tv was a problem. The staff moved us to another room because was a hole in the wall. But the second room had a problem with the internet and no signal for the tv. Was a mess. Room was cleaned. Staff was nice. But not best place to stay.

Room were great and price None

We checked in around 1030pm. Room was hot, floor uneven so dresser drawers stay slid open unless you wedge something to keep them closed. There was a problem with the plumbing; front desk asked me to give it ten minutes and call them back. Staff came to the room beginning at midnight (1 child already asleep and up until this point still no one could use the restroom) and began trying to fix the plumbing. By 1235 am, we were offered keys to a room 2 doors down to utilize the restroom. By the time we moved ( and turned the air on in the new room to begin cooling) it was after 1am. While plumbing was fine in the new room, multiple fixtures were broken/ missing. I did let staff know at check out (eg. toilet paper holder broken and hanging from wall) and staff said they were aware of the broken items. Too many mishaps and did not appreciate how things were handled. Would not stay here again.

This is an older facility that has been remodeled and is very nice. The rooms are very clean and kept up well. No face wash clothes were provided

Maid service was almost nonexistent, even when hung maid service requested on door.

Clean & comfortable & no problem parking.

I liked the location of the property as it was near a lot of restaurants and different places to eat in Cerro groceries. But it was poorly maintained and I know it was an older property so it doesn't have to look perfect however cleanliness should never be skipped and the front door was very dirty something that could easily be remedied by the cleaning staff. The walls were smudged with dirt, again something that could easily be cleaned by the cleaning staff and there was a huge hole in the wall of the bathroom where the doorknob had knocked into it. They haven't even bothered to cover it up and as we all know bugs live inside the walls so I was fearful all night that they would be bugs in the room. Thankfully the bed was clean and I did check under the mattress because seeing how this place was cleaned I wondered if the bed would be clean and thankfully it was. I wouldn't necessarily recommend this to anyone who could do a little bit better. $160 definitely not worth it for this property. If you can get it for under $80 then you're okay
