Chariot Inn Motel

I was there last week
Sorry to here the rating is ³¹⁄₂
The bath towels are so small and old that you don’t want to take a shower.
The bathroom is so small that you need to go to the bath tub to close the door.
Two star rating is too much.

I’m puzzled as to why this hotel rates so highly. We stayed there last night and were disappointed. Uncomfortable beds, smoky smelling «non-​smoking» room, mold around the tub and «breakfast» was nothing but carbs (muffins, toast, cereal). Definitely don’t recommend.

For the price, I was not expecting it to be so great.
The overall place was VERY clean, you could tell the owners put a lot of work into their hotel into making it nice for their customers. The lobby was VERY clean, and so was there little breakfast nook. The front people were very kind and I had no problems with my reservation in which I usually do when I book a hotel in places like these.
The rooms were old fashioned, not really up to date, but they did just fine. Everything was very clean, NO BUGS, and great working AC :) What made this place great was that is was QUIET, and PLENTY of parking, is was crazy how convenient it was to have a parking spot and be in your room within seconds. I felt safe there, and near the end towards my trip, I had to book another night that was not part of my orginal reservation. I went to the office I asked if I could please have another night there, and they said I’d have to move rooms because they already reserved that room to someone else, which I understood. While I was moving my things out, the lady was yelling at me to come in the office, and I did and she said she kept calling me but I wasn’t answering my phone and said I could stay in that room after all, yay! (We found out that my phone in the room wasn’t working so that’s why I didn’t get any of her calls). She was VERY kind and apologetic about the situation, and we ended up talking for about 30 mins about our personal lives after that. Overall, they are very sweet and kind there, and try to help you as best as they can when you need something, and the place is again, VERY quiet haha and VERY clean, and I felt very safe there. Plus they have good yummy fast food decisions within walking distance too. :D
I’d definitely stay here again, thank you very much :)

The staff at this place are unbearable. I arrived with a few friends for a weekend retreat. The room was fine and had the appropriate accommodations. There were four of us and we decided to relax before going downtown, so we turned on the TV. We got a call shortly after at about 3:00pm. It was a woman at the front desk who said that we were having a party, shouting, stomping around, and needed to stop. Again, it was three in the afternoon and literally we were watching TV. We told her so and she told me I was lying and having a big party in my room. Solid customer service. About thirty minutes later we had another call to the room. Same lady, this time she told us that the room next door just got booked so we needed to keep quiet. Confused by these phone calls, I went to the front desk to talk with her. She was very cold and unfriendly, would not accept a hand shake from me, and did not want to have a conversation with her customers. We avoided the hotel for the rest of the trip, only coming in late at night to quietly enter the room and go to sleep. On the last night of our stay we got to the hotel and had trouble getting in. The handle appeared to have jiggled loose and it took us several attempts to get in. Upon leaving the next morning, I checked out at the front desk with the same lady and mentioned the handle. She accused me of breaking the door from our «party» and wanted me to pay for a new door. I left. 2/​10, okay rooms, not worth the hassle from staff.

The room was clean, cheap and close to where I needed to be. It is a motor inn, so don’t expect a Marriott or Best Western — you are getting pretty much what you pay for. The bed was not the most comfortable thing. The front desk woman was nice, and they let me check in early without a fee which was great. Free WiFi worked exceptionally well the entire stay. I recommend this place to anyone needing a cheap room for a night (though I probably wouldn’t stay here for more than that).

This place looks nice from the outside. When you first step in, the inside looks okay too. There’s a fridge, a microwave, a large tv, an iron, an ironing board, and a hair dryer. Having said that, staying in the room is very uncomfortable. The mattress was about 10 years old. It was very soft and sunk in. The pillows were way too high. I finally had to take them off the bed and use my sweatshirt as a pillow. The carpet just feels dirty and icky. It has cushioning underneath. It is not on solid ground, for some reason. I walked around with my slippers on the whole time. I’m never staying there again.

After reading through all the negative reviews, I was a little worried about staying here. I’m glad I did not listen to them, though, because I was super impressed with the staff and the room!
The man at the front greeted us warmly (despite the fact we did not get there until 9:00 pm) and was quick to get us settled. The room was clean and larger than I expected. It had basic amenities, and a large TV that, unfortunately, did not have clear reception. The cleaning staff did a great job of replenishing the amenities and I did not have them bother me while I was still in the room (like other maids have before.) They also had free parking, Wi-​Fi and right across the street was a Taco Bell, Chinese take out and a Jack-​in-​the-​Box. I think for 3 nights I paid about $ 180.00, and I booked them back in early September.
It was in a great part of town, and only took us about 20 minutes to get to Universal Studios. I think it was also about a 20 minute drive from the hotel to the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and it was mostly freeway.
Overall I was very pleased with this hotel and I would definitely stay here again if I was ever in Hollywood!

Had a pleasant stay at The Chariot Inn. The gentleman at the front desk was very helpful. When I asked for an extra towel I was given one immediately by the housekeeping staff. The room was a good size and was clean. The bedding looked new. The place is very well kept up and it is close by many restaurants, and The Galleria and The Americana Mall. There is a Ralph’s grocery store nearby. I would only suggest to offer more items for the continental breakfast. There was no milk for the cereal. But, this is minor and can be changed. I would stay there again.

I was a little afraid when I booked the room, It didn’t look like a wonderful place. We were greeted by a very nice gentleman at the front desk, he got us checked in fast. Our room was clean and basic, no frills. A fridge and microwave were available for use as well as an iron and a blow dryer. The TV was a nice size, and had a decent selection of channels to watch
The bed was okay, not luxurious but we both slept great. My only complaint was that there were only 3 pillows on a king bed, but I passed out so fast both nights that it really didn’t matter. Didn’t eat the free breakfast. Not a bad place. Would likely stay here again.

This is a great place to stay when visiting the parks. The rooms are very nice and the exterior/​parking lot is very well kept. The jacuzzi room is Suweet! There is a Taco Bell and Jack in the Box across the street as well as a gas station. There is also a CVS close. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The continental breakfast is great. You can make your own waffles, toast, cold cereal or just have some OJ or coffee. I give this place 5 stars because they exceeded my expectations and the price is right.

Worst service the guy is so rude if you call and ask if any rooms are available they literally takes two seconds says no they’re all taken their all booked and hangs up in your face they need to hire new friendly staff The ice machine wasn’t working either and the guy was trying to offer me ice from his freezer so weird

Arrived later that night, and the night clerk was very nice and helpful. Room was clean and just what we needed. Location looks good. Just for the service I received would stay here again. Good price for area.

We found the hotel clean with nice beds. The staff was friendly and helpful. For the price a great deal

WARNING BED BUGS
Pros: people who run the place seem nice.
Cons: BED BUGS. I didn’t look the night I stayed there because I was exhausted, but I ended up with bites all over my back. I don’t know if any came home with me. Fingers crossed they didn’t. Also, the toilet didn’t flush fully, and there was a hole drilled through the door with a kleenex stuffed in it to stop people from looking in.

A nice clean motel that’s close to everything we wanted in Glendale. They were doing construction in some of the units below us, but they were extremely courteous and we did not feel inconvenience at all. The staff and service were knowledgeable and friendly and they were an excellent value for the price.

This place was awesome. For the price you get everything you can ask for … great wifi connection (free), no bugs anywhere, updated fixtures and bathrooms, om symbols on the rails, free breakfast (coffee, juice, danishes, cereals, etc.), super cool desk staff, visitors allowed and so on. I have zero complaints. We stayed here for 3 nights in the middle of the week and we couldn’t have been happier with what we got for the money. It’s probably one of the nicest in Glendale as a whole unless you’re staying at an actual hotel. I definitely, definitely recommend it.

First the positives. employees seem to be fairly friendly with the exception of a maid who gave me what I needed when asked but without any kind of friendly demeanor.
The area it is located in is fairly safe.
Parking was okay but I can tell that if it’s a sold-​out night there might be a problem.
Now the negatives. The room was old looking, and the air conditioning was extremely noisy with two controls. hi or low. No control of the temperature itself.
The shower curtain hung on a pole that was bent so the water was always spraying onto the floor. I finally used a hair tie and clipped the curtain towards the front so it would not slide down the pole anymore.
The shower Head was broken so we could only use the one spray setting it was on.
The sink faucet sprayed sideways instead of down. Obviously something wrong with it.
The so-​called continental breakfast was a complete joke. A couple of stale muffins and some orange juice and apple juice out of the dispenser and that was just about it.
I wanted to like the motel because the front desk employees were very friendly.
But I cannot honestly recommend this hotel to anybody unless you get a very good price and just need a place to sleep.

Loved this place, the service was perfect, they are nice, friendly, and ready to help! the rooms are clean they come with a microwave and a mini-​fridge. They offer free breakfast and the location is well centered!
I will be going back! :)

I searched endlessly for a safe, clean motel to fit the needs of visiting relatives from out of the country. This place met all my (and their) needs! $ 85 for a King bed over a July weekend. Free wi-​fi AND parking! Also, free breakfast including waffles, bagels and coffee. The staff was very pleasant, courteous, and welcoming. The motel is also within 2 miles of the Americana, Porto’s, Griffith Observatory (4 miles) and several freeways. The area surrounding the motel is dead around 10pm so don’t expect to be able to walk somewhere if you’ve got the munchies! Very basic toiletries in the room but the saving grace is that the room included a fridge, which was perfect for people from out of town who need a place to store all the food accumulated throughout their stay. In comparison to the other motels on the same street, the Chariot Inn looked more welcoming on the outside and inside.
Absolutely one of the cleanest motels I’ve ever been too. Highly recommended and would return again.

I made some spontaneous plans to see some friends in the LA area and needed to find a place to stay, and found this place by searching on Unilocal.Made a reservation the night before over the phone and the guy was prompt and had no issues. When I checked in, he was really nice and welcoming. Had a really good stay, the room was clean and the price was good. They have wifi but it wasn’t working when I was there. They also have a microwave and mini fridge. Would definitely recommend this place, I paid about $ 80 for a single night and the area it is in has a lot of options close by for food too.
