Travel tips

If you’re driving, the less-than-1-mile access to I-405 and the free on-site parking are key advantages; plan your sightseeing days around peak Los Angeles traffic. Universal Studios Hollywood, Universal CityWalk, and the Warner Bros. Studio Tour are all roughly 14–15 km away, so allow extra time for commute variability. With amenities not fully documented, consider bringing your own basics (for example, drinks for the in-room refrigerator) if those details matter to you.
