Guest Reviews
- Anthony (4/5): 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
- Kelsie (4/5): - 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.
- Pamela (6/5): - ✔️ 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.
- Zane (10/5): - 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.
- Nagammai (2/5): - Horrible hotel. Bugs are in the room. No aircon in the room. Lost few of my things too.
- Luz (6/5): - Ac wasn’t working other than that it was good
- Melissa (10/5): - Convenient for USC. Great value
- Keyonda (2/5): - 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!
- Alexis (10/5): - Super clean, quiet, peaceful and affordable! definitely will be back!
- Grace (8/5): - 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.
- Jessica (8/5): - The room and communal areas are clean and look nice. Staff is super friendly and this area is walkable to BMO stadium
- Nagammai (10/5): - We had a comfortable stay for a week. Housekeeping staff both of them were very helpful. Good service.
- Christopher (10/5): - Great place if you’re needing a place to sleep. Room and bathroom were clean and it was super affordable
- Glorie (6/5): - TLDR: Not the worst place in L.A., but I would look elsewhere. Be prepared to circle the blocks surrounding the property for a while. There is VERY limited street parking, and we were ill prepared for how much of a hassle it would be to find parking close to our building. The walls are also extremely thin. There is no staff on site, just cameras and the occasional maintenance person. We also found an empty water bottle in our room upon arrival, but other than that it was pretty clean. There is also no ceiling fan or any way to control air flow in this room, which is disappointing because this is very obviously a newly constructed building. We tried to contact the management through the provided number, but were unsuccessful. The money that you save staying here rather than a big hotel will probably be spent on bringing your own food, so unless you don’t have many other options, I’d opt for somewhere else with guaranteed parking at least.
- isaiah (10/5): - Great place and close to exposition park!
- Matthew (10/5): - We really liked the location near the colleseum. We like that it was convient easy and affordable. Honestly I misread "hostel" as hotel, but was really pleasantly surprised when I saw it was a hostel but this nice. Your area is private and comfortable and it's great if you are doing things in the city all day. Great place to lay your head down.
- Yong (8/5): - A hotel with basically unmanned management and distinctive features is highly recommended
- Jordin (10/5): - perfect
- Brian (10/5): - This hostel is very clean and tidy. Probably the cleanest I've seen in my life. Even the kitchen was clean and had everything I needed to cook a simple dinner. The room is cozy with new furniture. Although it says there is no parking, I messaged the front desk and they allowed me to park on the property for a small fee. Seems like they allow it if there is availability.
- Joseph (8/5): - i will return
- ERDOGAN (8/5): - All is fine
- Hannah (8/5): - Everything was clean and organized. Very comfortable stay. The staff was very accommodatiing with service timely. Street parking is very limited to none if you arrive after working hours. I would stay again. Thank you!
- Ivy (2/5): Horrible. - It was horrible. We followed the instructions and found a whole family in our room going in an out in their pajamas. Turns out they were told the same thing buildinf 617 room 1. We obviously didn't have a place to stay for the night so we had to leave. Contacted the company and they refuse to acknowledge another guest was in our room. They also refuse to give me a refund. Also absolutely no parking as this location is smack down in the middle of a narrow street neighborhood.
- Heather (10/5): - Good day 😌
- Carl (10/5): Quiet & Comfortable Atmosphere - Forty first place is clean, comfortable beds, quiet atmosphere, WiFi works great, and close to eateries. Management responds to any questions in a timely manner.
- SANG (4/5): - The room has a strong paint smell and feels dusty. Checked in however, didn’t stay and left as-is. I couldn’t put up with above conditions. Customer service was average as its best. I felt that an AI or auto responder was answering my concerns.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice House, Dingy Location - They need to improve check-in process. I had to contact them to get the instructions. Guy at the office forgot to send me room code & wifi info. Posh, new looking hostel but kitchen sink has some mold. Very clean bathroom. Firm mattress. Standard queen room is overpriced consid. how small it is & neighborhood isn't great. But I had a huge closet & house is walking distance to BMO Stadium & USC.
- Darryl (8/5): - Very clean but cold with no ability to change temperature. I tried to use the oven veggie I even put anytime in every fire alarms went off on the floor. The cleanliness was amazing but I can't stand being cold for no reason. Also the bathroom smelled like mold after showering.
