This was the perfect spot for my little LA trip; close to where I needed to be with very easy self check-in, and no worries about disturbing roommates with my odd hours. Close to public transportation and walking distance to good coffee and eats. The room was welcoming, well appointed, very clean, and the bed was really comfortable. I was a little worried about the shared bathroom but it was always clean and not very busy (the water pressure in the shower was pretty low-but my friend staying at an expensive hotel nearby had the same complaint—so it might just be a SoCal water-saving thing). This is an older building and has a couple rough edges; I found it cozy but if you’re turned off by imperfection this might not be the spot for you. Jason and I didn’t have much interaction but our communication was always prompt and friendly—he seems like a great guy. I loved the typewriter decor! It made me want to start writing a novel :)
