Travel tips

Plan for paid parking and allow extra buffer time if you need your car quickly, as some guests report slow retrieval. If an elevator outage or maintenance coincides with your stay, be prepared for stairs in this older (1918) building. For sightseeing, group nearby museum stops together (LACMA, Academy Museum, Petersen, and La Brea Tar Pits are all within roughly 3.3–3.6 km).
