Freehand Los Angeles
416 West 8th Street, Downtown Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA 90014, United States – Great location - show map
The room was spacious which we really loved. The staffs were very accomodating.

Very clean and well organised hostel in the center of Los Angeles. I particularly liked that when I left my luggage in the storage room, only staff had access to the room

My shared bunkbed room was amazingly clean, especially the bathroom. Be sure to bring a padlock for the locker to store your small suitcase. the location is downtown L.A., convenient to museums, eateries,

Location is good if you want to go to a Lakers game, there is no much nightlife

very clean room, bathroom, bed, handsoap and towel provided. i was lucky my other 3 roomates were nice and respectful. the room are new and well designed. hotel lobby has a lounge if you need to rest waiting to go to airport. basement has guest dining lounge with water, ice, microwave, fridge , dining tables provided. The only thing to keep in mind for solo female travllers is this hotel is 2 3 block from skid row. its not safe to walk around the hotel after dark.

The the check in the service I like the fact that you have a coffee place inside. Really like the pool upstairs it's a great place

The vibe of the rooftop was great and fun! Rooms were nice but a bit small, location was good but attractions are quite far, luckily is so close to a bus station

Ideal Location, comfortable, clean big size room and very co-operative staff. highly recommend for leisure trip stay.

I liked that the staff let us keep our bags with them while we waited for our flight after check put

comfortable rooms with great black out blinds, very friendly staff and a fun rooftop bar
