This property was conveniently located. The staff were very friendly. It had a very nice ambience. It was an amazing experience at the right price point.
Value for money. Three of us stayed at the hotel. Room was spacious and clean. Washroom and kitchen were very nicely kept and well equipped. I would recommend the hotel

We fell in love with this place!! Not only it’s downtown and close to tons of attractions, but the atmosphere and the staff’s easy going but attentive vibe make it an absolute gem! We will be back, and will tell everyone we know that this is THE place 😍
Was above and beyond what i could've expected. The facilties were well kept and maintenanced, staff kind and helpful, rooms and spaces clean, hospitality through the roof with special "BBQ" social parties in the evening. The location was super short, direct, and safe shot to all of Hollywood.
Super friendly, hard-working, helpful and professional staff. This place has character, I love it. It’s what you would expect from a hostel, nothing more nothing less. Hostels are places to meet other travellers, and we did here, with lots of communal space. The “tent city” others mentioned was merely 3 tents down the block; it’s not like we were fighting our way to the door through an army of homeless people. I do recommend this place.
Room had leaking cistern on toilet that was reported twice during our 7 night stay, it was not fixed. We had to use towels to soak the leak up daily.
The room was not clean upon arrival, dirty over floors and cupboards. (food matter in oven and cupboards?), dust collections on carpet, dirty lino in kitchen area.
Front of house staff were amazingly helpful and very very nice to deal with, unsure about cleaners as we did not see them or experience their work during our 7 night stay.....
Planned onsite events were noisy but only until 10:30 as advertised, noise was not an issue at all.
Again the front of house staff were exceptionally helpful and of great assistance.

Thd good, bad & ugly in reverse order:
1. Ugly: for $150, original room was world’s smallest hotel room - an unwanted bunk bed blocking half the open closet; microwave & fridge. (both in the good condition though ) there were no drawers, table, shelf of chair. blocked closet and a flimsy night stand. no towel bar, no hooks in the bath room to hang stuff. FORGET about the kitchen in the description. world’s smallest sosp “bars” size of a piece of candy. the toilet got clogged at first use. only plus were nee m/w, fridge & humidifier
2. Good: I went down (no phone in room) & immediately assigned me another room so ++ for service. this room was much more spacious -large walk in closet, more space, 2 level night flat tj stand, a wide modern seat! Spacious bathroom windows with hooks (no counter space) still NO KITCHEN
The best:
- unadvertised breakfast, basic but fulfilling .
- Tiki garden - very nice surprising for a 2 star
- hot water and s choice of teas and instant coffee 24/7. even 5 stars don’t have this
- social on Sat evening - fresh burgers including a vegan choice, unlimited beverage including alcohol. music, karaoke & dancing till midnight, Usually not my thing but it worked THIS time since solo leisure travel.
- int’l guests from all over the world
- TT table & arcade
had start, but nice ending.
The property isn't in the best part of Hollywood but the gates make it feel safe. Its walking distance to the main attraction in Hollywood so that was nice. It was really hot in my room and maybe I didnt know how to use the unit that was in my room but it didnt seem like there was AC. The vibes are awesome, I loved that they have social events for guests, we had a wine tasting and a Pizza happy hour but it was later in the evening. I would stay here again.
The room was spotless when I arrived. Shower was plenty hot. Heater worked well. Common area was fun. No issue with noise during the designated quiet time.
