Oh sorry, must have been pretty disappointing! At last the service was efficient but I dont suggest u to book again there for the third time in case!:P Happy weekend Anouk! xo
I'm staggered that they wouldn't honour your booking or at least give you a room of a similar rate. Did they realize you were going to feature them on your site, you think they would have gone out of their way to be nice to you!
It's a bummer that you didn't get the original room you had booked since the one you ended up with wasn't as nice but at least the valet service was good and the hotel is centrally located.
Can imagine the frustration… But the room itself, especially the first photo, does look rather nice decor-wise. I love the colours. x

Hello! Catching up again, my weekly visit! I saw the "if you fail to plan, plan to fail" quote, a good one! And the Avalon hotel bedroom seems nice, though what for an ordeal, to arrive and to get to know it was overbooked – well done for parking compensation! I also like tripadvisor reviews, so yes, if they go up, go again, if not, then book another hotel. The thin walls are also not a good thing, but I liked the pictures you took, seems to be nice!

Sorry to hear your experience wasn't that great! That is really frustrating. At least you got free parking out of it, and you truly can't beat that location! Right by Rodeo Drive!? That's awesome!
That would really made me mad if they had told me they over sold and my room is gone. Why do hotels AND airlines do this? Do they not anticipate people who had PAID to actually show up? So ridiculous. I am glad you managed to have some compensation and from your IG I know you did at least have an enjoyable time while in LA 🙂
This looks like a beautiful hotel. I love finding wonderful places to visit. Great post. Laura http://www.shehearts.net xo

The Hotel looks very stylish and very good location. It is historical too with Marilyn Monroe staying there. I know the area well because I like shopping at The Grove there in L.A.
That's a very nice hotel room! I would spend days in it! Too bad you didn't have a good impression of it this time around. Maybe third time will be a charm? But I do love its design! Makes me think of the 50s/60s 🙂
That's so disappointing that they overbooked and you didn't get the room you intended – such a good, honest review! The hotel does look beautiful and chic from your pictures! Especially that cozy, marshmallow bed!
Oh thats too bad! I am so sorry about not getting your room! Still sounds like a pretty swanky place

Sorry to hear that you had a bad experience, but hopefully the rating of the hotel goes up in the future. Have a lovely day, Anouk! xx

Sorry to hear that you went through all this! At least they gave you a free parking. No, I didn't know these facts. Quite interesting though!
