    This is a true hipster place and everything about the place is awesome. My favorite so far is the restaurant and the granola breakfast served is delicious

    During happy hour, well drinks are $7, select beers are $6 and house wine and Champagne are $5. The view topside and the ping-pong action downstairs are icing on the cake. Read more

    The interior hasn't been updated since built 15-years ago but still in immaculate condition. The guest rooms are contemporary and filled with cheeky references. Even men's room is superbly designed.

    The Koning Eizenberg-designed Standard was an early pioneer in the last decade's Downtown renaissance. Expect waterbed cabanas and topiary by the rooftop pool, and SPiN ping pong club. Read more

    Funky hotel, left of centre. Can be a little basic and noisy..hence the complimentary ear pugs. Restaurant does good food, however there are some misses...like no bread served with their soup?

    The rooftop bar's stunning views in the heart of Downtown makes it a fun place to revel and sip on drinks. The music's always great too. Read more

    Nice designer/boutique hotel with valet parking service. Close to Grand Central market and The Broad museum. Ridiculous that hotel guests need to pass 'face control' for their rooftop bar though!

    Stay here and you get free entry into the club (2 wristbands per room). The valet parking costs $30 a day but you can park in the LA Central Library car park for $8 a day at the weekend.

    The rooftop pool has starred in numerous movie and TV productions, offering a cinematic backdrop of spectacular city views and contemporary design.

    Very hip but, in doing so, appears rather cheap. Room is not functional. Terrible wifi. On the upside, the rooftop bar is amazing (but it's always closed for private events!)

    Guests of the hotel... Room 414 is extremely noisy on a Saturday evening. If you here for work and need rest in the eve don't stay here, but for a good party time hotel it's great. We would like rest!

    Don't miss the ping pong room on the 2nd floor. Great fun and a good bar.

    Great value if you use the One Night Standard app to book same-day after 3pm (download the app on Apple iTunes or Google Play store).

    Rooftop views are great, but it's not what it used to be. The crowd has changed and it takes about 45 minutes to stand in line and to get in after 9 p.m.

    They've got a nice roof deck with a pool, and they serve great burgers. Read more

    Great Hotel, design and nice. Metro and good Restaurants are close. The rooftop is amazing and the Pool maybe the best I've seen!

    It's always a fun night out here. Add a bit of glam and being poolside it's very hip & chill.

    Stayed 5 nights over new year, and found the service appalling, with the exception of cafe and cleaning staff. Room service was all about the up-sell. Concierge barely acknowledged us. Unimpressive.

    The waterbeds will destroy your back and ladies, there's literally no way to look sexy or cute while getting on or off of them...

    Enjoy the spectacular views of downtown LA on the rooftop patio. Get warm by the outdoor fireplace or take a dip in the heated pool. Local DJs spin nightly so go bust a move on the dance floor. #vday

    Please order the 'Chicken & Waffles.' The Belgian waffle is delicious and the chicken tenders are seasoned just rite.

    Needs renovation. No air-con in the elevators. No-one cares, but has an attitude. The usual Standard feel

    Rooftop Bar - check it out on a Sunday afternoon - lazy lounging at its finest. Bar gets hopping late and it rocks. Fireplace, dance floor and red onion-shaped waterbeds to relax and frolic.

    Nice place, quite expensive. Disappointing that the housekeepers always forget something: today a bathrobe, tomorrow the glasses, next day both bathrobes and glasses notwithstanding the notes I left.

    Only rent a room if you are planning on having a party there. Not the nicest and very sparsely furnished.
