GLENN VALLEY MOTEL, Studio City CA
   

 

A rare example of a motel that survived, survived intact, and looks just as good.

Well, they don't have umbrellas on the deck anymore, and they took down the sign on the side, but these seem to be quibbles. Especially when you can quibble about other things. Google review:

The room is quite worn down, with the furniture looking like it came from a garage sale, stains on the carpet and a pretty gross bathroom. Of the two queen beds in the room, one was horrendously uncomfortable (large hump in the middle) the other was just okay. The remote control for the tv didn't work, no response from the staff.

And so on. Yelp reports it as closed.
