What guests think

At Dunes Inn - Sunset, travelers praise clean, no-frills rooms, friendly staff, and the convenience of free on-site parking and a central Hollywood location, while noting thin walls, traffic noise, and limited in-room amenities like missing microwaves or coffee makers.

Multiple reviews note the on-site diner and bar remain closed, and several mention harsh overhead lighting or sparse TV channel options. The neighborhood feels mixed with visible homelessness, but guests often feel secure on property due to lighting and a parking-lot guard. Overall, expect a straightforward, budget-friendly base for exploring Hollywood.

Facilities

Free on-site parking is widely appreciated but first come and can fill up at night; a visible security presence adds peace of mind. The on-site diner and bar are closed, so there is no in-house dining currently.

The property was awesome! Lots of food and shopping options in a walkable distance. The only downside is the parking fills up towards the night so if you go out and come back late, you might have to park on the street but besides that it's a great place to stay.

We had an amazing stay at Dunes Inn. First, hotel has plenty of free parking, which was paramount importance to us. Second, check in process was super easy and quick. Also, the room was clean, recently remodeled, and the bathroom was in pristine condition. When were needed late check out, staff accommodated us. Since it’s in close proximity to Kaiser Permanente, we will be staying at your hotel again. Thank you for treating us well!

We stayed for two nights as we looked around Los Angeles. We read complaints about perceived safety issues, but didn't find any real problems at all. Every area we've traveled along west coast in last 3 weeks seems to be experiencing same social problems (homelessness, mainly) but it wasn't really an issue. The inn is located on a very busy, but convenient street, and an attendant is at the parking lot entrance seemingly 24/7 to prevent non-guests from entering property. The Inn was clean and very affordable. A laundromat, 7-11, and Burger King are right next door to the Inn - great for coffee and getting that travel laundry done.

The Hotel and the room was great, in great condition and everyone was very friendly! The only thing that was disappointing was that they list and show a lounge and restaurant but it was closed and has been since Covid from what we were told? The pics of the lounge and restaurant were a factor in my booking that hotel so they should take it off of their web listings!

The parking lot is spacious which helps with parking and unloading luggage. There’s also a security guard in the lot which gives you an added peace of mind. The room was decent. Nothing fancy but comfortable and clean. My kids and I went to universal studios which was in very close driving proximity to the hotel. The staff was kind and very helpful! Would stay again.

Nicely updated rooms, with fresh windows and bathroom everything. Quieter than expected, but the occasional siren broke thru. The restaurant is closed, and there is certainly no pool. It is a convenient, perfectly fine place to sleep affordably in Hollywood area. The mattresses are a bit worn, but the cleaning staff do a great job every day. We got to Griffith Observatory in no time!

The free parking, the fridge/freezer in the room, and the comfortable bed were great, but the room was not very cozy: bright white lights, no coffee machine. We could hear our neighbors talking and slamming doors for most of the night. More importantly, the bathroom wall had many hairs on the wall and a couple on the hand towels, which was not a pleasant surprise.

Clean, safe, close to busses and metro station, grocery shopping, restaurant, etc. The neighborhood is okay, not the nicest, but still safe a clean. The one bad side is the noise. Since it's on a boulevard and the soundproofing is not good, if you're a light sleeper, you will get woken up by people speaking outside or emergency vehicules. Adding a microwave, kettle or coffee machine in the room would be a great add up!

Quite a nice motel and room. As advertised, their dining facilities were closed, which was sad. But the property and the employees were all excellent. I even got quick service for a problem light. Had 2 gripes. 1) No bedside lamps for reading or computer work. There are 4 pretty bright spotlight-type ceiling lights, including one right over the bed. Pretty exciting when you wake up at 5 A.M. and turn it on, lol. There was also no microwave, which i discovered the next morning when I went to heat the coffee I bought the night before, Oh, well, lol. Overall, quite happy with my stay and the entire staff. Yes, I would stay again.

The room was too basic and small. When booking, I selected a Queen-size room for 2 adults and 2 children, and the Double-size option was actually cheaper. However, after booking, I didn’t pay attention to the confirmation details and later realized that it was still a Double-size room. It was also extremely noisy. As soon as we entered, we saw two beds placed right under the window. The room was on the first floor, with the window facing the parking lot, so we could hear everything. We could also clearly hear the sounds of water usage from the neighboring rooms and noise from upstairs and downstairs. It’s okay for just one night, but I wouldn’t recommend staying any longer.

The property and parking lot are in good condition. It is well lit and has a security guard. However, there did not seem to be enough parking places for all of the cars. Also, the furniture was outdated and scratched. The beds were clean and comfortable. I visited the office a few times because my key card kept deactivating on me even though I purposely kept it away from all electronics and cell phones. I thought the place was overpriced for its value. I needed to stay an extra night and I found a cheaper hotel down the street. It had a better price and was in better shape.

No on site food....but places on same street so this is not a big issue. Sensibly priced, nice and central, and close to metro station too. Recommended!
