The Standard is clearly catering to 20-somethings who crave nightlife and haven't quite moved into adulthood. That used to be me, but it ain't anymore. I was actually with my younger brother, and he absolutely LOVED the place. SO, it really depends on your style and where you are in life. The hotel is an old office building, and you... More

The hotel itself is trendy and cool. Well decorated. The pool is gorgeous, waterbeds are fun, the music could be way better but I understand the feel they are trying to give for everyone and not a club atmosphere, views are breathtaking. Food is pretty good as well. My only complaint is that the rooms are very basic. The bed... More

Our accomodation was funky and clean. The staff at reception were very nice and hospitable. The bar tender(female) up in the table tennis bar upstairs exceeded our expectations. The bar staff in the biergarten were very nice,chatty and downtoearth however I felt that the barstaff near the pool were abit snobby. Maybe you need to be wearing a suit before... More

I stayed at the Standard for 2 nights on a recent business trip to downtown LA. After having stayed at Westin, Omni and the Hilton Checkers, I would rate this one better than Omni and Westin and slightly below Hilton. pros: Very nice staff/very helpful. Free Wifi in rooms. Great bar to hang out and have a beer after a... More

The hotel has a nice look and feel but upon closer inspection it did not meet my expectations. The open concept bathroom is nice to look at from a distance. Dated deco design in bedrooms also left a lot to be desired. Overall the Hotel room was fairly clean. I did have a strange odor coming from the sink but... More

Aside of terrific line staff, leadership must be lacking. One day, no one even came and cleaned the room. The showers were more a spray than a shower. Paint needed and general fixing up. Ended up going to the Primo Caffe for breakfast...great food and value...just a block away.

This hotel is fun and I love when they remake a hotel in an interesting building. This one is a former bank and business building. One in your room, you need to get past the fact that everything is a bit different than your typical hotel room. Hard to describe but think hip, cool, modern. Only complaint is the level... More

We are a young couple with a 2 year old & wanted to stay in a place that was fresh & fun & the Standard was that & more. Super friendly service, incredibly comfortable bed & large room. Amazing food & the rooftop deck around happy hour was fun for us & our child & the waitstaff was incredibly sweet... More

The service and the room were fantastic! The room was really big; there was a huge tub and the view was breathtaking. The service was excellent; everyone was so friendly and helpful. And the room service was friendly and efficient. We ordered a whole apple pie (read this as whole apple [pause] pie, not whole [pause] apple pie!) and it... More
