Popular LA attractions including the Hollywood Walk of Fame (~11.1 km), TCL Chinese Theatre (~11.6 km), Griffith Observatory (~12.4 km), the Hollywood Sign (~14.4 km), and Universal Studios Hollywood (~15.6 km) are also within reach by car or rideshare.

Best for

This hostel may suit budget-focused travelers who prioritize basic connectivity and a simple base for visiting central LA attractions, as guests have mentioned working Wi‑Fi and a functioning TV in at least some rooms. Travelers who are sensitive to noise or who place high importance on cleanliness may want to weigh the low public rating and recurring complaints about noise and upkeep.

Travel tips

If your plans include museums and Downtown LA, note the proximity to the Natural History Museum (~1.0 km) and to Downtown landmarks such as The Broad and Walt Disney Concert Hall (~6.2–6.3 km). For Hollywood-area sightseeing (Walk of Fame, TCL Chinese Theatre, Griffith Observatory), expect longer trips of roughly 11–12+ km, so plan extra time for traffic. Because amenities are inconsistently reported by guests, consider confirming critical in-room items (e.g., A/C, fridge) directly before arrival if they are essential to your stay.

What guests say

Guest feedback is dominated by complaints about noise, including thin walls, nighttime sounds, and ventilation noise, along with reports that blinds did not block early morning light. Cleanliness and upkeep are also recurring concerns, with mentions of dusty rooms, dirty towels, and a shared kitchen perceived as not recently cleaned. Some guests report that advertised in-room amenities (such as air conditioning, a cooker/kettle, and a fridge) were not actually available. On the positive side, at least one guest noted a working TV, functioning Wi‑Fi, and a large closet.
