I seldom give a full 10 to anything or anyone, but the Orange Dr Hostel deserves it. It is located a block from Hollywood Blvd. If you get bored then just walk down the street. It is made from an old house, so it is very comfortable. They offer a kitchen and a place to buy groceries around the corner. The staff is very accommadating. I highly recommend this place to everyone.

If you stay in the dorms, know that the bunk beds are harder than a slab of concrete and the pillows are stuffed with bricks. The top bunks hardly have any railing and no outlet or place to put your stuff. You have to make the entire bed by yourself which is really difficult to do on the top bed. The room was like a furnace. Street sounds are very loud; it’s in a very commercial area. Kyle and Pedro were wonderful and supported me with multiple room changes. Better to splurge on a private room!
