8th & Ardmore

We chose this hostel because it said on the description that it had a parking available. Turned out that you have to pay 10$ for the night. Moreover it said checkout was at 10am but the host told us last minute that it was in fact at 9. And it wasn’t clean. Don’t recommend this hostel because it misinformed us all along.

Probably the worst hostel I stayed! When I came in my room I could directly tell, that people are living here. No other backpackers. No reception, didn’t felt like a hostel at all. One morning several women in my room woke me up with their argument, one being very aggressive. I never felt so uncomfortable and afraid in a hostel dorm. Positive was that it was clean and I could check in earlier. I was very happy to leave again.

One of the worst hostels I have stayed in my life. This place, let people who are trying to get by in the city of Los Angeles stay in the hostel. It wasn’t just a tourist hostel, but a place for even homeless people (no offence), but I am here to travel. People didn’t look nice, and were unclean. I left the next morning and found a better place.

This hostel is the worst one in my life. Because there is no staff who cares house well and there is someone seems to live permanently. It was uncomfortable. Actually they don’t have real staff, we were really worried about our safety. I never ever want to stay there. This hostel is located in Korea town, but its atmosphere wasn’t Asian culture. It is really important point! Anyway if you read this comment, Run away! Hurry up!!

There were people living long term here. There was a man sleeping in our room who snored like a jet engine both nights - none of the 5 in our group got more than 3 hours sleep each night. Bathrooms were relatively clean to be fair, but the beds weren’t comfortable and the people staying there seemed to be mostly permanent residents apart from us. Would not recommend.

Das Hostel liegt in Koreatown. Die Umgebung war okay. Die Bäder waren grlßtenteils sauber. Es ist nur leider so das im Hostel Menschen wohnen und es gibt eher weniger richtige Reisende dort was den Aufenthalt schlechter gemacht hat.

Booked the mixed dorm, and the first few nights had to share the room w a couple of sketchy individuals, the owner kicked them out after things got almost hostile, which was good. The owner himself was quite rude tho, not pleasant to deal with. However the cleaning ladies do a great job to keep the facilities clean. The dorms stink.

Bad stay. Although the beds are quite comfortable, there are no curtains or blinds worthy of the name so you are woken up as soon as dawn breaks. The walls could have been non-existent, it would be the same as you can hear everyone outside. It is located near a road that is quite busy in the morning. There is a scent diffuser in the room that activates every 20 minutes or so and makes a lot of noise. The door code box is very noisy so you will hear everyone entering, etc. Go elsewhere.

My friends and I were sleeping in room 22. I have stayed in multiple hostels and this one was by far the worst. I was truly shocked at how dirty the room and the women’s bathroom are. Also, smell is quite unpleasant. I'm sure it is due to the lack of ventilation, but it was very difficult for us to sleep properly. Noise, farts, trash all over the room that make the room unbreathable and computers on full brightness throughout the night. I am really disappointed (and lack sleep).

Das Hostel hat eine gute Lage, um die Sehenswürdigkeiten zu besichtigen. Zudem ist der Besitzer sehr freundlich, jederzeit erreichbar und hilft bei Problemen. Allerdings habe ich mich in der Unterkunft nicht sicher gefühlt, da einige Obdachlose hier wohnen. Daher kann ich diese Unterkunft nicht für Alleinreisende empfehlen.

Very Nice😃

Für Los Angeles relativ gute Lage, Metro ca. 15 min zu Fuß entfernt, Betten etwas hart, Bad war im Zimmer, was sehr angenehm ist, zusätzlich hab es im Gang Bäder. Alle Bäder waren sehr sauber. Viele Dauergäste im Hostel, diese haben alle Ablageflächen und Schränke beansprucht. Leider keinen richtigen Chillbereich. Kleiner Kühlschrank im Zimmer und in der Küche ein großer. Große Küche mit vielen Utensilien. Leider war Backofen kaputt was sehr ärgerlich war und dies nicht augeschrieb...

The hostel is fine, but there isn't much security, and the lockers are small.

es war SEHR kalt im Zimmer (Klimaanlage war aus), Küche war richtig dreckig, wenig Geschirr, es gibt nicht wirklich eine Rezeption - keine Ansprechpartner, im Zimmer roch es nach Pferdestall Bad ist schön & groß - keine Wartezeit

Staff were nonexistent, checkin was done over WhatsApp and felt sketchy. People seemed to be living there and the vibe was extremely antisocial. The area was also pretty sketchy and there were many points where I felt unsafe.

Management needs to initiate a policy of emptying all lockers daily that do not have locks on them. Lockers are on a first come first served basis here which is fine with me but when I checked into my room all six lockers had stuff inside them but only two of those lockers actually had locks on them. As far as I could tell the stuff in the lockers without locks on them might have been abandoned and sitting in here for months. Lockers are not shelving and should be for those bringing locks.

Very good and decent stay here. I also left my bracelet here and they promptly were able to find it and I picked it up right away.

Great spot in ktown. Was in town for a show at the Wiltern and this spot was perfect.

This hostel has more like home atmosphere. The location,cleanness and safety.,.everything was great!

Everything works well with check-in, stay and leaving. Close to stores and metro train.

Second to cleanliness, is communication- and the communication with the property rep was 10/10. This place looked just like the photographs and it was clean.

I like the place , near of everything I need.

Great hostel. Had hot water for shower and bed was comfortable.

I was working at the LA Convention Center and found the hostel to be very convenient & affordable compared to other motels nearby. Yes, the lobby can be noisy and parking can be difficult on the weekends. But overall, I felt that it served my purpose of a safe place to sleep, cook, and take a shower. The female dorm had a mini fridge, locker and AC. The lobby also had a communal fridge & kitchen. I highly recommend this hostel. It was very clean.

It was hot, it smelled bad, and it was kinda dirty. There was also no staff there. Had to get another hotel

À LIRE ATTENTIVEMENT ! A tout mes français, économiser de l’argent et louer un logement qui en vaut la peine. si j’avais su j’aurais économiser avant et réserver un hostel tant pis plus cher mais dans lesquels je me serais sentis bien mieux Pour les habitués des hostels, ne vous attendez pas à retrouver l’ambiance et un lieu comme les autres. C’est un lieu qui évite à des américains d’être SDF. Ça pu, c’est mal placé. Un viel s’est mast*rb* dans la chambre devan...

My son and I stayed here for our guys trip to celebrate his birthday/graduation. The area around the hostel is bad. There is a grocery store about a block away. Plus there are plenty of restaurants. Several bus routes run close to the property. The property was very clean and the other guests very friendly. The staff was great.
