The place was very convenient and close to the LA Coliseum. The rooms were comfortable and had everything you needed, and nothing you didn't need. The area is in an area that is slowly getting gentrified, so temper expectations on the location. If you are expecting a bourgeois place, you're not going to get that here. You're getting a bed, a hot shower and a shared kitchen -perfect for short term stays. I always felt safe in the area. When you check in, make sure you get a code for the front door and a code for your room. Parking is non-existent, but that's to be expected in LA, which is why rideshares are suggested. Overall, I liked this place and would stay again.

With all honesty we arrived and our place was not that clean. We only got two towels that didn’t smell clean, we didn’t get wash rags or hand towels. Others things that lacked cleanliness were the mirrors, surfaces, and the floors were not well swept/vacuumed. The body wash and the hand soap were watered down. Also a day before our check out, housekeeping came in without knocking and said that we were supposed have checked out which was incorrect. I understand it is a hostel style stay however I think small improvements could have made a huge difference.

Not very Private

On the hotels.com website I thought it would be a wonderful getaway with my girlfriend. Unfortunately not true. Room was clean, but very small for the price I paid. Kitchen is shared amongst others on the 2nd floor. We were set on 3rd floor and privacy was none as rooms are extremely close to each other and walls are fairly thin. From this I booked another hotel as privacy is needed as a couple

I booked this because it was within walking/scootering distance from USC. That really was the only positive. When I arrived the room was dirty, pee still in the toilet, hairs all over the bathroom, floor was very dirty, my socks were immediately brown. The first night was okay, but Friday and Saturday night I could hear every sound from every other resident - toilets flushing, people peeing, people talking, people cooking, people’s alarms going off in the morning… there is zero sound proofing in the building. I got multiple texts in the middle of the night asking people to move their cars however my check-in told me there was no onsite parking… overall it worked, but I would never book again.

✔️ Location is convenient and accessible - close to Koreatown and there are ample amount of shops around the area. Place is beautifully decorated. Towels, shampoo, conditioner and body wash are provided. There is also a common area such as dining and kitchen. Kitchen is well stuffed with cutleries and appliances which will allow you to cook should you want to. Owner/Customer Service was very quick to respond when you have queries. Also doors have its own digital locks and the code will be given to you on the day of your arrival so you dont need to worry about keys/key cards. ✖️ Looks clean but not clean enough - floor is quite dirty and the towels and pillows have a smell like sweat that was left on. Soundproofing is not that good - you can hear the doors, footsteps, shower drain and toilet flushes from the room on top of you most especially. You can also hear noises from the outside like barking dogs. There is airconditioning which is centralised but the thermostat can be controlled by anyone. At one point it was set by someone to 77F (25C) when the temp outside was around 80sF (30sC) which quite frankly, beats the purpose of it. Overall it was a decent stay for its price.

Would be a nice place for an extended stay with friends for sure. Street parking is definitely hard though so be ready for that. Rooms are very nice and it’s perfect walking distance to BMO stadium so you don’t have to pay outrageous parking fees. Label your name on your food inside the fridge as well or put it all in a big bag.

Worst experience ever. Horrible guests. Loud rock music playing late at night. A woman screaming and cursing and also playing music all night long. The kitchen is a shared space and the refrigerator didn’t look like it had been cleaned in months. Absolutely disgusting. There’s a sign in the kitchen that warns guests that they will be asked to leave if they eat someone else’s food. Someone ate a slice of my pizza, threw away my breakfast sandwich, and opened my wings! Management refused to enforce their own rules and simply told me “some people just are inconsiderate”. Never mind the fact that there’s a camera pointing at the fridge that could’ve shown who ate my food! We lost power one night. They randomly changed the door code and I was locked out at one point. There’s no daily service. You won’t get your linens changed, towels changed, nor the trash emptied in your room. You won’t even receive a wash cloth! The hand soap in the bathroom was filled up with water as opposed to being replaced when it got empty! It’s in a very sketchy area. Two random men came knocking on the door about a lost cellphone. VERY SKETCHY! I don’t recommend anyone stay here!

The hostel itself was great, but there was used eyelashes in the bathroom on the counter, as well as lots of dead bugs inside of the shower itself. Just kind of off putting. The room was great, but the sheets were most definitely NOT cleaned before I got there.
