The walls were very thin so you could hear everything. The people there were really loud and noisy. The beds were a bit dirty. Luckily no bed bugs. The people staying there were a bit odd. Some people were eating in the room at 3am.

3 lockers to 6 beds? Slept with my luggage I didn’t feel safe. Place was so run down. Hot as hell even if it had central a/c. One staff member was nice. That’s what’s making up for the stars. Literally that’s it. Way over priced. Flys in fridge. Food I had went bad. Nervous the bunks had bedbugs. Even the “clean” towel given to me looked dirty. 1 bathroom to 6 females and it was so gross. Never ever again.

This was advertised as a party hostel, but isn't. It's an old hospital repurposed into a hostel, which is completely fine, but you can tell by the sterile lighting and smell. Check in was easy enough and staff were good, but parking on the premises felt unsafe. The lift wasn't working & there were no internal locks on the doors, which didn't fill us with confidence leaving our stuff. It was clean, but we read many reports of bed-bugs in the rooms close to us, and it scared us enough to leave.

It's a homeless shelter in disguise with non existent management or professional staff. The Roaches running around was a downer and some rooms Bedbugs issues.

I would avoid this place. Great geographic location if you can get over the BED BUGS!! The girl that checked me in was nice the room was cheap and the hostel itself isn’t terribly set up but when I noticed bed bugs in my bunk bed I brought it up to the front desk person Michael and he immediately responded aggressively accusing me of lying. After bringing him to the room (201) and showing him the actual bugs he proceeded to deny that this never happens (although I highly doubt it) and was doing everything possible to deny responsibility or refunding me. I was persistent to wait and get ahold of a manager it took a couple hours eventually got my money back for the second night.

DO NOT STAY HERE WORSE PLACE EVER ! Staff is very rude breakfast included means only cereal and bread facility in general is very very dirty ! Also got bit by bed bugs when I told the front desk about it she said well I’ve never got any complaints about that room before as if I was lying even showed her my bites they charged my friend a room after telling him it was free for the night ended up being a lie to get more money out of us over all this is the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at don’t waste your money here !!!!

Very fun hostel that parties every night with beautiful international women. But... BEWARE OF BED BUGS! Back in 2011, stayed here for a week and was EATEN ALIVE.

Análisis del ambiente
Banana Bungalow West Hollywood es una base de presupuesto pesado en una parte útil de Los Ángeles, cerca de West Hollywood, Melrose, Fairfax / La Brea, Sunset, autobuses y un salto práctico hacia Hollywood. El punto positivo más fuerte es la ubicación, con una configuración social construida alrededor de espacios comunes, un patio y programas regulares por la noche. El karaoke con micrófono abierto, las noches de barbacoa o pizza, las noches temáticas, el billar, el tenis de mesa y las grandes salas de estar dan al lugar más interacción que una plataforma de choque normal. El ambiente puede ser agradable y animado, pero también puede ser desordenado y caótico por la noche, especialmente cuando las fiestas, el alcohol, el humo y el ruido se extienden a las habitaciones y a los salones. Las habitaciones son básicas y desgastadas. La limpieza es una verdadera apuesta: baños sucios, cabello en las duchas, ropa de cama o colchones manchados, cucarachas, olores de moho, humo o hierba, duchas obstruidas, presión de agua débil, paredes delgadas, salidas limitadas, armarios pequeños y mal almacenamiento, todos aparecen como problemas recurrentes. El aire acondicionado puede ser débil, no disponible, controlado centralmente o apagado durante la noche, lo que importa durante el clima caliente de Los Ángeles. Las experiencias del personal cambian mucho. Hay momentos amigables y útiles, incluyendo el limpieza que se llama positivamente, pero el registro, las políticas, los cargos adicionales, asignaciones de habitaciones y la actitud de la recepción también pueden ser frustrantes. Esto es mejor tratado como una opción barata, social, dura para una parada corta en Los Ángeles, no un albergue pulido.
Señales a revisar
- La limpieza y el mantenimiento pueden ser deficientes, incluyendo baños sucios, cucarachas, ropa de cama manchada, olores y habitaciones gastadas.
- El ruido puede ser pesado por las fiestas, el tráfico en la calle, las paredes delgadas y la actividad nocturna en los pasillos.
- La seguridad y la comodidad son preocupaciones serias para las mujeres solteras y cualquier persona sensible a la dinámica caótica del dormitorio.
- El desayuno es básico y a menudo decepcionante.
- El estacionamiento puede costar más, puede ser estrecho y no puede adaptarse a todos los coches.
- El aire acondicionado y el control de la temperatura del cuarto pueden ser poco confiables.
- El almacenamiento es limitado, con pequeños armarios o poco espacio de equipaje seguro en los dormitorios.
