Glendale Lodge

Totally fine in most ways but for one important exception: this place has bed bugs! I repeat BED BUGS. Do not stay here. I was covered in bites and even found a bed bug in the middle of the night. Additionally the managers seem like they don’t give a crap about the issue. Nightmare.

Horrible experience. We got a suite and the jacuzzi had roaches, the vent above the shower let out a huge water bug that looked to be on steroids. Rooms were booked and customer service said nothing could be done. Dirty, gross and not worth the whopping 200 they charged. So apparently you get charged for roaches and water bugs that seem to pump iron.

(Posting for my parents) Although they have ample and safe parking and an acceptable lobby area, the rooms are less to be desired. Rooms are not updated– it’s got stained carpets, chairs are torn if not stained as well… smell of cigarette smoke and old carpet is overwhelming when you enter.
Customer service to accommodate a client’s request can also improve to say the least. They did however move us the next day, but to an even worse room which smelled like cigarettes too, and the condition of the room was not any better. We ended up staying in our original room.
I certainly, will not recommend to anyone. Will make future reservations elsewhere and will never return to this place again. It’s cheap, you get what you pay for.

First time here, I was looking for a hotel to stay in with short notice and found a room here. Price is reasonable, family friendly, clean rooms, lobby and room presentation is great. Also this hotel is one of the few that helps save water and electricity. Definitely would come again and recommend it.

For those fantasizing about officious, saucer-​eyed 5-​star hotel service and boutique upholstery… Please. This place calls itself a «Lodge» for a reason (and not a «Hotel,» a «Palace,» or an «Igloo,» for example). The rates are reasonable, the rooms safe, and the location convenient.
If you’ve read some earlier reviews and have stumbled now upon my humble 2 cents, don’t fret about the ’10 by 10 tiny ass old school tv.’ Standard rooms come with 40″ TVs. I’m more of an Internet-​and-​wifi person though, so I found the connection speed satisfying enough for my short stay.
Breakfast options include a pretty lean Continental (pastries, juice, coffee) that you can work off later if you so desire in a small gym. A second floor conference room is also available for business travelers.

Very very cheap! Can’t even call the front desk on the phone and can’t get another blanket! Glendale should sue for the name back!

This place looks beautiful from the outside. On a block full of Hotels it looks the nicest, from the outside. The Rooms are spacious, but the Furniture is from «back in the days», and the TV … It’s a 10 by 10 tiny ass old school tv. Sorry but for the rates you gotta upgrade the rooms. Won’t be coming back!

If I could give 0 stars I would. I called trying to reserve 2 hotel rooms, and the guy who answered I think his name was Mike? hung up on me! I don’t know what kind of BS customer service skills they teach at this establishment, but I’ll take my business elsewhere. If you don’t mind rude employees then by all means stay here. For better customer service across the street at The Rio they are much more polite. If you can spend the extra money, Extended Stay America is a few miles away with much more ameneties and top of the line customer service. I’ll say it so nobody has to deal with the horrible workers, FUCK THIS PLACE!

our place to when in la. clean and safe

Nice, clean lodge! Highly recommended if you stay in Glendale!

My family and I stayed in Glendale for a bit during our weekend in LA. We checked out some inns and didn’t want to be in a motel, but all seemed to have steep prices. We decided to give this place a try since it looked a bit nicer than the rest. The rates were reasonable and got rooms with 2 queen beds each.
The rooms were pretty spacious, we got the rooms with 2 queen beds. They had a bathroom, TV, closet, AC/​heater and even a fridge. For those interested in the toiletries, they had interesting Organic body wash, soap bars, shampoo and conditioner. They do provide wifi here, but you need to ask for the code.
The room served it’s purpose and the beds were comfortable. The décor might seem a little cheesy and outdated, but we made do.
There is also a complimentary breakfast, which was limited to: coffee, juice, donuts, toast and strudels. They provide a microwave in case you wanted to heat something up. There is also a gym here I believe, but was not able to check it out.
It’s conveniently located near a Goodwill and fast food places that do delivery, also if you’re hungry there’s restaurants and more stores if you drive just down the street.

Very nice, very clean and very safe hotel! Don’t let the reasonable rates fool you — this is a great hotel option in the LA area. The property was very well managed and the rooms were incredibly roomy and clean. The décor is circa 1985, but everything worked properly and was well maintained.
Will definitely stay there again!
