AUDodgy Charged me again for my stay 1 month after we had left!!! Still trying to get money back. They claim technical error and immediate reversal was processed... Nothing has been reversed on credit card, plus now additional overseas transaction added to credit card!! NOT HAPPY GINOSI!

GBHow rude!! I travel to L.A. frequently, probably twice a month, and I've been looking for new options of places to stay. I found Ginosi Apartels on Hotel.com. and it looks terrific. I had a few questions so I called the number listed on your Hotel.com website. Here's how the conversation went: Me: Hi, can you tell me how close you are to the Palladium? Clerk: What?!?! Me: Can you tell me how close you are to the Palladium? (5 seconds of silence) Me: The theater on Sunset? (several more seconds of silence, I thought he was looking it up on line) Me: Hello? (several more seconds of silence) Clerk: Click. Wow! Really rude. I'm bummed because I thought this place might be one of my homes away from homes. But, if the reservations/front desk is so rude they cannot even carry on a simple conversation, I assume that the rest of the staff is also less than professional and pleasant.

GBDo NOT book Ginosi If I could give zero stars I would. I reserved 3 nights at one location. I was not informed upon check in that they had moved my building location. The new building did not have the amenities I booked. The next morning I received an email saying they couldn’t accommodate my entire stay and had to relocate me again. The next building had even less amenities than the first location they put me. It wasn’t even the room type I booked. Both nights we didn’t sleep because of the noise. It was so bad. Not to mention how hard the beds are. We left and don’t stay the third night. They refunded about half of the amount of the third night. Overall I will never ever book with this place ever again. I highly advise everyone else not to also. It was the very worst experience I’ve ever encountered traveling. I was traveling with my 18 month old and had to unpack and repack everything every night when all I wanted to do was stay in one location and enjoy swimming with my boy. That never once happened. And all they give me is a the run around that all they can offer is a partial refund for the inconvenience they cause.

GBGood value, nice building I stayed at the Ginosi Metropolitan Apartel. I was at first skeptical after reading all the bad reviews on here, but I am happy that I actually went for it. The building was clean, the location is very close to the walk of Fame stars and the view over Hollywood was just fantastic. There was no daily cleaning but that didn't bother me at all. It felt like it was my home and that is not a feeling one easily gets at hotels.

GBTerrible experience. My apartment was not *at all*as it had been described. It was dark and up against a (loud) construction site, and because of that I could never put the shades up. I was concerned, as a woman traveling alone, that the apartment was not safe as there was easy access to the balcony in an empty alleyway next to the construction site. But that wasn't the worst of it. The worst part was that there was a raging all-night party in the apartment upstairs and there was NO SECURITY in the building. Even after I called the office, the party raged on until 4am!!!! I decided to check out the next day because I did not want a repeat of the night before. I explained exactly why I was checking out. Ginosi assured me they would get back to me right away, but after 5 days and a few phone calls I still had not had the decency of any response. Finally I called today and their response to this incident was to offer 10% off my next stay. Seriously? That is not the best Ginosi can do. This company clearly does not care about their guests or their experience.
