Dunes Inn - Wilshire

"This is an older property in a nice area and in pretty decent shape. It looks like it was recently painted. Noise and construction signs were up, but we were not subjected to any related noise, probably because it was the weekend. The room was decent and clean, but the ceiling/walls are paper thin. Lighting was bothersome since you had two options for light. One in the entry or the entire room on blast. We were on the 2nd floor and should have been on the 3rd because the people in the room above us were just plain noisy. I can't decide if they were deliberately noisy or the ceiling/floor was that thin. I suspect a little of both. I know this is not the fault of the hotel, but being an older hotel, this is what you can expect. As well, try to get a room away from Wilshire Blvd since you could hear the traffic. I will say that the TV setup is lacking. Best I could figure out, you can only watch stations thru streaming and the internet was abysmal since it was constantly buffering or going out. Had to turn off the TV at one point since the internet never came back."

"they start doing some modeling job after 9:30 even before the check out time. It’s so so so loud. It sound like someone using the electric drill under my bed. We reserved three nights here. But after the first night we want move somewhere else. I don’t think they care customer’s feelings. Bad experience."

"Basic accommodations at a decent price. No frills but clean and safe. Would stay here again. Free parking is great. I am sure pool is great in better weather."

"Overall property categorisation is adequate with 2* although in Europe would probably be 1* Property is outdated but housekeeping staff is doing their best to keep it clean and overall it is clean BUT - carpets! Omg! Please please in the name of hygiene and cleanliness gods and goddesses - get rid of them as a matter of urgency!! I’ve binned all my white socks as a result. Also you can’t walk bare feet - this is how dirty it gets regardless of the vacuuming. Very best thing of the hotel is bed and pillows. I’ve slept in many hotels around the Eu and US but this one probably has comfiest mattress and pillow, no joke! Staff in the property were generally well mannered, especially latinas housekeeping ladies, my heart goes to them! Such hard working! Tall guy receptionist with the specs however needs manners and communication training."

"What are the odds I’d meet the owner of the Dunn Inn on the same flight to San Jose, Costa Rica? Once he found out I was booked at his hotel He gave me an upgrade at no additional cost to me. The staff were super friendly, and professional and went over and beyond to make my stay a memorable one. I highly recommend the Dunn Inn. My stay was more than I expected. I will be back. Karen C. L"
