Jewel City Inn Glendale - Featured Reviews (141)
5 stars for value! Would recommend if you’re on a budget. I’ve stayed in a lot of hotels in my life and there are a lot of good things to say about my stay here based on all the experiences I’ve had. First of all, I really appreciated the service. Everyone was very nice. Next, I loved that we always had parking even though it was the weekend. Finally, I couldn’t believe how big our room was compared! Lots of space. I will be honest and say you get what you pay for with this place. If you want a 5 star hotel, this is not the place and the area does look a little rough but we still felt very safe here. We didn’t hear anything crazy at night and no one bothered us. It was a good location to let us explore LA as well without paying a lot of money for a hotel. There are some good food options near by within walking distance too.
Absolutely false advertisement. The photos
show a clean, safe environment for a family.
When I got there it was disgusting, dirty walls,
dirty sheets and blankets, a couch that should
be condemned. I thought me and my children
would end up with an SDI, bedbugs or shot in
the parking lot. They offered another room and
after consideration, l declined and asked for a
refund for $326.14 (this is more like a $50 motel for 18 year olds to party at). They became argumentative and rude, and I finally just left. I ended up paying $401 for another hotel and don’t regret it. I felt like at Jewel City we would come home with an SDI, bedbugs or bullets, it is literally that bad!!! I don’t know how on this earth this place has so many good reviews because it is HORRIBLE!!! I’d give if a -20 out of 10 if I could. Especially if you have children or are a woman alone.
As you can see I pushed the filthy couch in front of the door for “safety”. The beds smelled like smoke and the sheets were dirty, the bathroom was disgusting - I wouldn’t wash my dog in there, the couch should be condemned and I wouldn’t even sit on it.
I DONT RECOMMEND ESPECIALLY IF YOU EXPECT CLEAN, SAFE AND ACCOMMODATING!!!!!!!
Its a nice little hole in the wall Hotel and i had a peacefull nights sleep. They have a fridge and microwaves but no ice.
I recently booked this Inn for 1 person for two nights. Day plans included Universal Studios, but could not afford to book a hotel for just myself for $550.00+ (also in Glendale). So I cancelled and rebooked at Jewel City Inn. I read some recent reviews and decided to take a chance. Some people mentioned that the owner was very nice and I totally agree. They did not have an ice machine on site and the owner let me use his plastic ice tray from his home. I really appreciated the kindness. The grounds were tidy and upkept. The room was downstairs and had an adjoining kitchenette. The bathroom was also a very good size. Everything looked and smelled very clean. Basic toiletries in the bathroom. Freezer/Fridge combo in the kitchen. I did not get to explore the neighboring area but I did appreciate that the Inn is located in a residential neighborhood, just off of the main street. I felt very safe. & the evening and nights were quiet. The parking spaces are also very close to the room doors. I appreciated that it was not overly crowded, but also this is a hidden Jewel. I hope more people book. Again, very kind Owner, very clean, and very affordable. Everything you want in a home away from home.
|I went to Glendale to visit my daughter and grandchildren with my little daughter. The hotel is small, not very elegant, but very clean and the kindness of Mr. Patel was very excellent. I liked the tranquility around it since it is located in a residential area. I am also very grateful to the cleaning lady, who by the way I would like all clients to leave her a tip for the work she does in that place.|As a suggestion, I would say that they put night lamps and a small coffee maker, it would be great. Thank you for the attention and consideration of Mr. Patel.|Good place to stay. MQ.
This is a small motel style property located in Glendale. It seemed to be in a decent and safe area from what we could tell. We booked one standard room and one with a kitchenette. The kitchenette room adds a full size fridge and a cook top area with some additional storage
The standard room is on the smaller side, but is adequate for two people. It had a mini fridge, microwave and a small table with two chairs. The bathroom was a good size with a large walk in shower.
The real star is the location, being within a short Uber ride to many of LA's top attractions. We felt the room itself was a good value, and was kept up well and clean. It served as a good base for us as we traveled around LA. The parking is even included in the rate, a rare thing in an LA area hotel
Would recommend paying a bit extra for the kitchenette if you want more space to move around. We would recommend and will likely be back next time we're in the area
We stayed at this property with my parents from 2-6 october. We had one standard queen room and another queen room with kitchenette. Both rooms were comfy well kept and clean . The bathroom was clean and spacious with a nice walkin shower. The property has free parking onsite which other properties charge in the neighborhood. The motel is in quiet safe residential neighborhood. You can get lyft and uber here to go anywhere is the city. Most if the attractions like universal, disney la down town meuseum are 30 mins drive. The service is exceptional at the property. The first night i requested owner a charger for iphone and he willingly gave me his own and asked me to keep it till end of my stay. We needed extra soaps which they provided immediately. The thing which really touched my heart was his wife’s gesture of making masala chai out of her home for my old parents when we returned tired from LA whole day city tour. She even shared her own fresh garden produce fruits with my parents. We have found a home away from home to explore LA. We will come back and stay again and again. We will happily recommend them to our family and friends.
Positive: Easy check in and check out Negative: Lots of mosquitos and flies inside the room. Floor was dirty, and sheets had cigarette burn spots. I stayed there in the past and it was great, this time was honestly sad. Negative: ""
