Guest：Though the room wasn't ready for 30 minutes, the staff was so friendly and helpful. We really liked the style of the rooms and the joint room was nice and spacious. There wasn't a trash can in the room but we had our own little trash bag so that was fine. Also, there weren't any paper towels or hand towels in the kitchen. It was nice having a lot of space in the closet but a few more hangers would be really nice. I also don't think my bedroom sheets were washed because there were body oil stains on the sheets along with body glitter and they didn't smell very good. My throw blanket was also really dirty. Neither of us slept really well because there was a very loud and profane argument right outside the balcony window and the hotel staff had a lot to deal with in that regard. Overall, it was a great location to stay and we felt at home.

Guest：Inadequate parking for these rooms. there were constant messages about someone blocking someone else and there is absolutely no street parking within blocks. The room itself was ok, somewhat noisy as shared if your housemates spoke (thin walls between)

Guest：I booked this because it was within walking/scootering distance from USC. That really was the only positive. When I arrived the room was dirty, pee still in the toilet, hairs all over the bathroom, floor was very dirty, my socks were immediately brown. The first night was okay, but Friday and Saturday night I could hear every sound from every other resident - toilets flushing, people peeing, people talking, people cooking, people’s alarms going off in the morning… there is zero sound proofing in the building. I got multiple texts in the middle of the night asking people to move their cars however my check-in told me there was no onsite parking… overall it worked, but I would never book again.

Guest：Clean & Great for my weekend stay! Was in town for a bodybuilding competition, and this was just minutes from the LA convention center which is where I needed to be during most of the days I spent in LA. I really appreciated the staff that went above and beyond to make sure I felt welcome. They even offered to store my luggage so I didn’t have to deal with packing day of my comp which was the day I was scheduled to check out. Communication was quick the one time I had a question regarding the room which is something I didn’t expect being it was a self-check in establishment and the only staff I saw were the housekeepers which by the way work super hard to keep the place clean each day. Thank you for making my visit to LA super smooth and easy and most of all, affordable. ??
