Holiday Inn El Monte - Los Angeles

Very comfy rooms. Good value. It's just far enough from the beach and downtown to be affordable, but close enough to make the drive reasonable. Loved the 90s RPG arrangements playing in the lobby.

Upon arriving, the staff was friendly and welcoming. I was recognized as a member and water was offered. The rooms were clean and comfortable which made for a great stay. There was a great view of the mountains and when the sun set, it was magical. Overall it was a great comfortable stay.

It was very effective and efficient the checkin process was. They knew I would come back in the early morning and it safe and convenient to access into the hotel. Room was comfortable and sleep was restful.
