Liked: Best hostel I stayed in US so far, it s situated in the same building than a very nice hotel, so they are sharing part of the reception and visibly the quality of service. Recommend it 100% if you need a location in downtown L.A

Liked: I liked this place. Cool accessories in the room.

Disliked: I got two unexpected 4am wakeup calls. 1st night the radio alarm clock came on at full volume at 4am which scared the life out of me. Then next night I was awoken to someone knocking on my door. I looked at my mobile phone and it was 4am again which really spooked me. I looked through the spy hole and saw it was a security guard. So I opened the door. He just said 'sorry' and walked away, so I don't know what is going on. I felt quite scared. So I didn't get mucg sleep which was a pain as I had a job interview the next day.

Liked: The room was excellent. One bunkbed, bigger than single size mattresses, very clean, TV, washbasin, radio in room. More like a hotel room than a hostel.

Disliked: The bathroom had no mirror and no window, felt very dingy. The breakfast was simply sugary cereal with loads of E numbers. There was also no proper area to sit and eat breakfast, literally one two seater sofa.

Liked: The rooms were awesome! Stayed in a double private with its own toilet and showers were just outside the door. Decor was my favourite, it was very chic and cool.

Disliked: The location wasnt great, Downtown L.A was a bit of a dive but it didnt take long to get to the metro or into a more friendly area of town. Also the breakfast was a bit of a letdown, sugar coated rainbow sugar is not a cereal!

Sharon Taylor

18 January 2010 Sharon would recommend this property

Liked: Excellent value for money in Los Angeles ($40 for a double room). Room clean and tidy and provided with towels and free toiletries. Close to metro and excellent bus service nearby. Lots of eating/drinking places and definately worth a visit is Louie Bottega restaurant/deli/cake shop. Not rock bottom cheap but food amazing and all portions huge so can share between 2/3 of you. Looks dead posh but they dont turn their nose up at you (we were in jeans and hoodies). Both times we have been there they have given us free cakes/biscuits to take away too!!

Liked: The most comfortable bed away from home! Thanks for a great LA experience, even though we were put in a private with a shared bathroom instead of what we originally booked, the staff were absolutely accomodating and apologetic despite the plumbing problems being out of their control! The housekeepers were lovely and tidied the room everyday. We'll definitely be recommending this to our mates.
