Editorial Review for The Standard--Downtown – by Gayot.com

The Scene
A new era of revitalization for downtown L.A. took off running with the 2001 launch of this hot spot. The opening night sleepover party that inaugurated this hip property was attended by Hollywood's finest clad in their pjs, many of whom are considered some of the hotel's most popular amenities.

The Details
Rooms come in various sizes with names like Huge, Gigantic, Humongous and Wow! Each features modern, minimal decor which speaks of today's retro-futuristic craze: shiny silver throw pillows; a barcode-inspired design that covers the walls; beds on low carpeted platforms; and in the Wow! rooms, a giant foam foot sculpture in the bathroom. Fun amenities include CD players, mood lighting, aromatherapy toiletries and well-stocked minibars. The rooftop bar and pool is the center of the hotel's late-night action, where beautiful people mingle amid fake topiary, sleek Formica furniture and staff dressed in red cheerleading uniforms.

finally got to stay

The rooftop bar is my favorite place to party in LA. I've been there quite a few times and I finally got to stay at the hotel last weekend. When I was on their website booking the room, I found the promo code "summer" for a free upgrade and got to stay in a really nice room for the weekend.

Worst experience ever. Avoid the grouchy young female stylist with tattoos everywhere at all cost. She became irritated with me when I explained to her what I wanted. It was as if I was bothering her for being there. I'm a student living in downtown and this place would have been very convenient for my haircuts. No way I'm stepping in there again. I feel this reflects poorly on the Standard Hotel as well and therefore I am writing this review under the hotel itself.
