I stay in a considerable amount because my sons play travel baseball. I can't afford to always stay in $180 a night rooms, so I'm always looking for value places to stay. Vanllee is interesting because it looks beautiful in the online pictures, yet the reviews are awful. You always have to take the reviews with a grain of salt because people are overly critical For starters, I was super annoyed because they wouldn't cancel my room. My sons tournament was changed to a city nowhere near West Covina where we originally were scheduled, but the hotel insisted they would not refund me so I was stuck here. It put me in a foul mood from the jump You can't help but be struck by the beauty of the place. The architecture, grounds, and layout are phenomenal and all it takes is a little imagination to picture what this hotel looked like in its heyday The rooms are not terrible. They are very large suites with comfortable beds, couches and chairs, and decent furnishings. The shower had plentiful hot water and good water pressure Now for the downside: Wi-Fi was terrible. Couldn't get anything better than a "weak" connection and staff continued to tell me that would reset the router but I don't think anyone knew how Breakfast was embarrassing. It is served in a dingy banquet room, the food was subpar, and it was a poor experience I had a mouse in my room. Scared the crap out of me when it ran by me. It scampered back through a hole in the wall which I stuffed a towel in

This Property Must have been totally up-scale in the 60’s. Now it’s just old, dated, rundown and just plain sad. Furniture looked original, elevators didn’t work, sketch clientele, service with bad attitudes. They tried to stick me with a room right over the I-10 freeway. I got them to move me to the back of the property. Price was dirt cheap so I wasn’t too surprised. One good thing was the mattress's were good.

The room had a funky smell, there was holes on the door and the walls were dirty. Also the bathroom sink would clog up. This was room 293

The king size bed was comfortable but other then that it wasn’t to comfortable. The hotel window in the front doesn’t even have a lock. It’s super easy to get into. The carpet was ripped and it smelled like pee next to the bed. The air conditioner didn’t work at all either. There seems to be a lot of activity at night also

It was beautiful driving up to the front entrance and inside the lobby with all the natural wood but when I walked into my room I was immediately disappointed. The smell was off putting, like a dirty water smell. When I go to hotels I inspect the entire room. I touched the counters, top of TV, all the surfaces and all had dust. I check the couches and chair for bed bugs but found crumbs and lint, they also had stains. I checked the bedding which also had stains but I always bring my own bedding. The beds also had dust and crumbs on all corners. The bath tub was all cracked on the bottom and had hair in the drain. I found water on the floor in the bathroom and noticed one of the boards was lifting so I pulled it up and had nasty slime and lots of water damage, now the dirty water smell made since. I requested a new room. They didn’t fight me. I got into my new room and still had a weird smell but not like the first one. The bathroom was tile and wasn’t lifting. Sheets still stained as well as the couches but No dust. We were only staying 1 night so I made my kids stay on the beds with our own bedding. I walked around barefoot not thinking and OMG they became black. I had to clean them with my Clorox bleach wipes, I didn’t want to put my feel in the rub. Also, they have people that live here full time and literally make the place look like a CrackHead headquartered. It’s a shame because the building has so much potential but they just don’t care I guess. Best part was the park.

Really digging this hotel. The grounds and the rooms are nice and peaceful. Looking forward to many more nights herein the future

This hotel is decent for the price range. Rooms and hallways were clean, the bed was comfortable. But the whole place seemed a bit shabby - most corners were dinged and dented, carpet was very worn and looks like it is 40 years old. Breakfast was 1 small scoop of runny scrambled eggs and 2 greasy sausages. Plain bagel or toast, crappy coffee and some weird tasting substitute OJ. No fruit, not even canned. And they had beat up old folding tables with no tablecloths. Skip the breakfast and spring for McDonald's. Hotel is right next to I-10, so ask for a room that doesn't have a window facing the highway.

It looks like it belonged to a druggie. It was dirty microwave, didn't work Sink, didn't drain dirty sheets. No iron a c didn't work horrible experience.. This was not the suit that I was expecting to get, especially the rate i was charge, Was there for a family function and for my mom's chemo And to know that this was the hotel.i Was gonna bring my family too, was despicable.
