    + big, clean room + very nice staff with good tips for the area + gated parking space + good area and central for entering the highway + option to wash & dry clothes for a fee + only 10 minutes by car to Universal Studios

    I travel to Los Angeles frequently for work, and have stayed at Motel Sakura many times. It is the best motel I’ve ever stayed in. The owners are always friendly and helpful. The rooms are all spacious, modern and clean. I always have a great experience when I stay here, and will continue to frequent this motel. There is a reason they have such great reviews!

    The owners were welcoming and accommodating. The room was bright and clean and updated. Being an EV owner they had free charging for me, and having a gate gives the motel a sense of security. I will be staying there the next time I'm in Los Angeles. I could not have had a better experience.

    Nice Motel, we were there for 2 nights. The room was big enough and very clean. We didn‘t hear any street noise. The bathroom is large with a nice shower. The room includes a microwave, a fridge and an electric kettle. Easy check-in and check-out, everyone is very friendly and helpful. We recommend the motel and would be happy to come back.😀

    Nope!

    Karen was incredibly sweet. I highly enjoyed this trip with my boyfriend. The room was very clean, the location was convenient and I liked how it was gated and secured. The room was updated and had a good amount of space for two people. Karen and her husband, yoshi, were kind and sweet and answered any question we had.

    There really wasn't anything I didn't like.

    This is a lovely little motel in the heart of Glendale. It's got the most wonderful, caring staff and it's secure. The entrance is through a rolling metal gate. The rooms are newly remodeled and Beautiful! The bed and pillows are luscious. There's a mini-fridge, microwave and an electric kettle to boil water. The price is so reasonable. This is a hidden gem that's worth the look. I'm so glad I stayed and I will return.

    We ended up staying here twice while visiting America. The first time for three nights, then when we needed a place to stay for the last night we didn't hesitate to book here again. The staff are all friendly and helpful. The room is modern and comfortable. There are dining and supermarket options within walking or a short drive away.

    We stayed here for three nights when we first arrived in LA. Greeted by friendly helpful staff, the room was modern and spotless. There is a supermarket a couple of minutes walk away. The gated parking and access gives a feeling of security which is always nice. When our plans changed two weeks later and we were suddenly going to have an unexpected night in LA we didn't hesitate to book here again.

    A coffee maker in the room would have been nice, but that’s not a big deal at all.

    Small and easy to get to. Staff were very friendly and helpful. They have an elevator, so it made it easy to get our luggage to the 2nd floor. The room and bathroom were modern and roomy. The beds are quite comfortable, nice bedding. Nice thick towels. The shower was very nice! Looking for a similar shower head for my home!

    Minor issues like some.of the USB ports didn't work. Shower head was very high but no shower cap was provided. To avoid wetting my hair I had to use a bag from our ice bucket.

    This property not only met but exceeded all of my expectations. We were very impressed by the owners and the way they are so involved with creating a beautiful, comfortable and affordable motel. Finding out that it was built by the family who still operates it and seeing the pride they take in it was wonderful. I will choose to stay here whenever possible. A few specifics: Bed and linens were SUPER comfy. Entire room was spotless! Furnishings and decor were modern and beautiful. Plenty of USB ports throughout the room Attractive lighting that was dimmable Property was secure and we felt totally safe. Quiet, (probably helped by the no children policy) I liked that we were offered tea and hot chocolate because we don't drink drink coffee. Gated private parking lot Rates were very reasonable Great location with easy access to good affordable restaurants, a Target and a Ralph's grocery store.

    The pillows were a little on a hard side. There were no shower caps, body lotion. Sound isolation is not at its the best. But this all is not that important to me, it didn't ruin my experience.

    Very friendly staff, very organized and helpful. The room was beyond clean, I was impressed! I felt really safe at this location, the motel has gates that gets closed at specific time and only guests can enter.

    Motel Sakura is a lovely decorated place to stay, the facilities are immaculately clean and provide a lovely comfort for our stay, the addition of close gated parking at the front not only provides us a feeling of safety but also a great place to park your car at night. The standout part of our stay was how helpful and friendly Chris at the front desk is, he provided us with all the help we needed, was super friendly and a credit to the motel.
