Very good stay for the price! My first time at a Podshare and I would definitely stay again. Solo female traveler and I felt safe and cared for in my little pod. Centrally located, lots of restaurants and shops within walking distance.

A loft bed and a shared bath

This hostel type low cost option is a good value for the price, but one should arrive with realistic expectations. As an older traveler, I chose it in part for the experience and in part for the location. I got a good night’s sleep.

As I said before I appreciate that it’s available because housing and lodging , very expensive. Nowadays we need to be frugal and practical. My time is spent mostly at work so all I need is a safe place to sleep. It’s not for everyone. The extra large bed is the only sort of private space I have , the rest is shared.

Not the best hostel

The hostel looks unique and cool from the pictures. When I arrived at 6pm it was so hot I was sweating in the hostel. The A/C was turned on later that night. Laundry was $7 a load. There was no curtains on the beds for privacy or darkness. Bring an eye mask. The area didn't seem safe with the homeless tent across the hostel, and parking is on the street. So if you have a car make sure you read the signs. I had to move my car and walk a half mile to the hostel twice for street cleaning.

A little more niceness would work

I like the location and the layout of the area is pretty good but all the staff live on the same floor as the pods so they are there consistently day and night. You never know if they’re on duty call of duty, and the information they provide doesn’t cover all the interruptions that happen during your stay.

I truly appreciate finding Los Feliz Podshare. I came to LA to work and not as a vacation. Majority of the places that are available and convenient to my needs are very expensive. All I truly need is a place that I can sleep safely. Although I must say what truly makes this place special is the crew that manages the place . Addie, Michael and Nick . They try their hardest to make this place clean , safe and feel like home. To stay in this place one must realize it’s not a hotel where you have your private space . But with it is the savings that you’ll get and the opportunity to see and meet different people from all walks of life . So I highly recommend for anyone to try it.

PodShare Los Feliz was unsatisfactory. The listing is a bit deceiving image-wise and unprofessional. I might try a different Podshare location next time. The young lady checking me in did not seem equipped to address my concerns with her taking my credit card and taking a picture of my ID. A record they have all the way back to 2018. So people's ID pictures were just on an iPad with anyone able to walk up and have access to them. I had a reservation so I was definitely going to show up. No one bothered to clear the selection that was supposedly mine in the fridge. Therefore, I had no fridge space when I arrived. Some random person banged on the door in the middle of the night about getting their stuff. I was confused about why that was happening, but it interrupted the quiet hours she stressed to me so much and she didn't even adhere. The place appears to haven't gotten an update in a while. This would have been fine as a hostel if it weren't for the lack of cleanliness causing me to get bitten by bed bugs. I have pictures. I went into the hostel fine and woke up with bites after night 1. I thought it was weird but thought maybe I got a mosquito bite. The following day I had more bites than I did before and a swollen eye from bites. Keep in mind I covered the hostel pillows with my own brand-new pillowcases. I still got bitten up. Lastly, this place was sort of difficult to find. I had to call someone because the entrance is just a door on the corner with no sign.

Not as pictured. Kinda scary.

Reality versus the pictures are very different. It was dark and dingy, the kitchen was not very clean, I was scared to walk around without shoes, the people were very sketch, at one point during the night there were six people sleeping at the dining room table in the middle of the night. It was an….experience.
