8-day stay during July 4th, 2022 long weekend & high season for summer travel: I would definitely stay here again; this is probably my 7th time over the last few years staying here. I did not plan to stay at any hotel. I planned to stay at a friend‘s home but there was a terrible plumbing issue that affected the electricity issue and even my friend had to find somewhere else to stay. So at the last minute I was looking for a place to stay for eight consecutive days. I had some Airbnb options; however, since I had favorable experiences with Friendly Hills Inn in the past I thought maybe I would get lucky to find eight consecutive days where I could get to stay in the same room without having to move around. The front desk staff was very helpful in assisting me to get what I wanted and they honored the military rate which I really appreciated. I do feel safe at this hotel, Friendly Hills Inn in Whittier, CA. It’s easy to get into and out of and the rooms themselves are very comfortable. I like the different lighting options even though I do bring my own nightlight for the bathroom sink area. The air conditioner works very nicely and in a quiet manner. There’s a microwave, a medium-sized mini fridge as well as a small coffee maker. The hotel room is modern contemporary and there’s a variety of softer and harder pillows so depending on if you want to sit up in bed against the bed frame or lay down you have options. I like that the light switch to turn off the main lights and the lamp is right next to the bed. Amenities about nearby including restaurants shopping etc. there are delicious made-from-scratch soups at the “California Grill Restaurant”, and I did enjoy Huevos a la Mexicana at “Mr. Giants”. Discovered a great store called Upscale Collectibles on Greenleaf; a wonderful collection of gently used furniture, jewelry, books, clothing, shoes, dish ware, linens and more. Great people work there. So I will definitely stay here again at Friendly Hills Inn in Whittier, CA. Again I had the option to stay at an Airbnb which I had booked just in case this hotel wasn’t available for eight consecutive days but having both options available, Friendly Hills Inn and the Airbnb, I decided to choose Friendly Hills Inn and that’s a win-win for both myself as well as the good people who run it. The owners are quite nice and professional. I will definitely stay here again. Thank you Friendly Hills Inn! Susie 🙂👍🏻

Rooms are very clean and updated. They feel cozy. Exterior a bit aged but pleasant and neat. Friendly staff and good area. A bit far from Highway but worth the extra minutes drive. Felt safe.

It was a 3 Night Stay, I had problems with my TV from day 1, "Only a few Channels worked And No HBO as they said there were 5 HOBO channels" ... On day # 1 I went to the front desk, Informed the clerk on duty that I was having trouble w TV & only had a few channels, she said the MGR was off site, But she would leave a note letting the MGR know of my Problem, I was Patient & waited... On Day # 2 I Walked to the front desk & asked if the got the Message Last nights clerk they figured out the problem w/ TV my problem, She Said NO, So I explained the problem to her. She gave me a New Remote, I asked if it would work on my TV, she said they were all programmed to all the TV's, I said Ok good And I went back to My room to try it.. The remote did Not work on my TV.. I Then Called her & explained the Remote would Not work, she said Ok I'll have someone come up there to check it out... Almost 2 hrs later one of the Nice Cleaning Ladies came in & had another remote, It worked, BUT Still No Other channels worked & still No HBO, She said she had no clue why No other channels & no HBO, I asked her if MGR was in she said I had to wait until Morning about 8am. On Day Day # 3 At 9am I walked to the front office Spoke to Mgr. Explained situation again, he said they would have to Reset the TV & it would take Awhile as He had an Apt. he had to get to. I said it's been 3 day's now & still nothing had been fixed, I then Asked for a refund on each day to compensate me for the troubles. He then Said, # 1 "U can Vacate By 11am & he would not charge me for my 3rd Night (P.S. I wasn't leaving until 6am on 4th day)" AND then He SAID # 2 "At least you have some channels" .. Complimentary high-speed WiFi Was Very Spotty... Alarm clock Did NOT work, So I was late to meeting... Say's it's a Non Smoking hotel, Smoking rooms are the Cheeper rooms than Non Smoking... Just a Bad Experience All in All Oh And the Bed was Hard !! P.S. the older cleaning Lady Was Very Kind & Very Nice P. S. S. They do NOT allows Visitors, stating it is a Liability

This place is super clean and comfortable. I got here around 8 PM and had no problem getting a room. The air was clean no cigarettes odor to the room. I loved the shower in this place.
