Best for

This hotel best suits value-minded travelers who want a Koreatown location with transit access (about an 11-minute walk to a metro station) and easy reach to Downtown LA venues like Crypto.com Arena and The Broad.

Travel tips

If you plan to use public transit, factor in the roughly 11-minute walk to the nearest metro station when timing early events or late returns. Driving is practical here thanks to complimentary secured parking, which can be especially useful for trips to Downtown (e.g., Walt Disney Concert Hall and MOCA) and Hollywood attractions. For arena concerts or games at Crypto.com Arena (about 3156 m away), allow extra time for traffic and post-event congestion.
