Would not recommend!! The crowd is primarily older, late 30s / 40s and on drugs. Tiny lockers and there was no room for my luggage because the people in my room were living there full-time. The room and all my clothes smelled like smoke after. The men were all really creepy and I was woken up 5+ in the night by multiple 5 minute alarms, full volume podcasts at 3am, and really drunk women in my room (apparently the drinks are free so that’s the crowd). Avoid unless old drug addicts are ur thing

My boyfriend and I rented the private double room with attached bath for one night and it worked out great. Definitely worth it over a hotel!

This wasn’t the room that was advertised or shown in photos. Then I unfortunately had to add a night due to a change in departure and they charged me $129. That’s $30 more for a Sunday night. There was a heatwave, no AC. Just a fan bolted to the wall that couldn’t be adjusted. Only friendly people were housekeeping staff. No one at check in said anything about the hostel. And the app for meetups with other guests required a paid subscription. Super lame. Super sucked.

I love the Banana Bungalow. So old school LA, classic architecture with FUNK. Great staff and guests plus free underground parking. The area around is such historic LA with Canters, graffiti, and excellent thrift stores as well as super close to LACMA. I highly recommend it for a truly story worthy, affordable Los Angeles trip.

First time staying at a Hostel & truly blown away! We stayed in a private suite & it was super cozy! We had our on private bathroom, the water pressure was delightful & the water was HOT! We also had a tv, decent size mini fridge, 1 side table, a small table with 2 chairs, a bunk bed, a full/queen size bed & of course a beautiful balcony! We checked in around 9 pm and the staff was kind! The hostel had a karaoke party with vegan patties too!Met super cool people and made memories for a lifetime!

Super clean and great location. The staff was friendly, not really events happening at the hostel to motivate people socialise.

I liked the in suite bathroom and there was plenty of lounge space + a cool outdoor lounge, which was nice. Lockers in the room were way too small for a backpack or luggage, although would be fine to leave just the stuff you're worried about in. I just left my luggage under my bed and carried my backpack during the day -- probably would've been less happy with a top bunk. Seems like they had some fun social events going on, I didn't have the chance to attend though!

What is there to say about this place?. Well, let me ask that question. They are #1 ( Number one). - Gregory Antwone Alexander #GregoryAlexander This Hostle/Hotel is a number one destination spot for first timers to the beautiful neighborhood of West Hollywood b( WeHo) were models, actors, dancers, singers, designers,producers, writers, and so much talent comes to showcase their talents and crafts. My words, weather and encouragement would be never give up on your dreams and stay...

Amazing hostel with incredibly warm and receptive staff. Definitely a must-stay with free breakfast daily and barbecue with drinks on the weekends. Cannot recommend this place enough as I met some life-long friends here.
