I hear people actually live here which is alarming to me. Is this like a homeless hostel? I don't think this is good for a business at all. Overall experience it was fine

Location is decent being well located between downtown, Hollywood, and Koreatown. The place is clean and comfortable with a nice common room. The street outside was loud but I think that would be true of anywhere. Overall, a solid choice for a place to stay on a visit in LA!

beds don’t have actual sheets you are given a worn out blanket. no outlets at the bed just an extension cord with only the old 2 prong style socket. breakfast is fine but with there only being one sink the hostel relies on polystyrene and plastic plates/cutlery which seems incredibly wasteful. Fine hostel if you just need a place to sleep but the area is rough don’t go out alone at night.
