    It’s totally fine! Even have free filtered stations to fill your water bottle. I would like fitted sheets but I mean, whatever. It was one night. It’s fine!

    This location is PERFECT for a one night stay to explore Olvera Street, Chinatown, and Union Station plus excellent to get easily and quickly to Dodgers Stadium. You can even take the shuttle free from Union Station which is a 5 minute walk to the hotel. And right next door to Phillippe’s which is of course a must-eat restaurant in Los Angeles! This hotel is all about the location. Staff is pleasant and helpful. The parking attendant is totally awesome. Sheets are Euro style as in no fitted sheets—they use flat sheets for both so they don’t stay on well. Bring your own or make do. It’s totally fine. But this is a no-frills situation. Only $5 for parking. You can’t beat the value that’s for sure. I would return with family. This is NOT the place for a couples getaway or girls’ weekend. We had to rooms booked and one wasn’t ready yet. When u inquired when it would be ready I was told, “the cleaning staff is behind and I’m not going to pressure them.” I LOVE THIS. I absolutely adore them for standing behind their staff and supporting them. Fabulous!

    No coffee pot in the room and carpet in the hallways could use a good deep cleaning but overall stay was good!

    I was pleasantly surprised by this stay! Easy walk to Union Station and only $5 a night for parking which is hard to beat in downtown LA. Beds were a bit firm and walls thin, but I still felt comfortable and safe. Perfect budget-friendly choice for the area.

    The shower is just like rain. Not too strong a stream. I had to ask for a chair for my room. There was none. But I got it

    The hotel has a perfect position. It is close to El Pueblo, the historic Spanish quarter - exactly a street with old houses and restaurants. Just behind a corner Chinatown begins with bistros and grocery shops. Metro stop Union Station is 200m away.

    We were a bit disappointed with this accommodation. We enjoyed Olivera St. and Phillipe's.
    • Leisure trip

    • Standard Queen Room with Two Queen Beds

    The beds were in need of attention ~ the mattresses were quite worn as were the linens. The bathroom door was heavy and hard to keep open. There was a man sitting outside on the sidewalk/steps each day and night that made us a bit uncomfortable. There was no coffee pot or glasses etc. There were no chairs to sit upon at the desk or otherwise. There were no night stands. The shower had no shelves for toiletries.

    We could tell that they were trying to present a lovely renovation of sorts. We appreciated the proximity to the train station as we came in on the train. They greeted us as we arrived and each time we returned. We appreciated the room having a refrigerator. The bathroom was clean. The towels were fresh each day. The size of the room and the bathroom were quite adequate.

    I didn’t like the neighborhood; it seemed a bit dangerous and not very safe. The hotel smelled a bit like smoke, food, and a bit of dust. The room felt a little cramped and outdated. And sometimes there was a guy walking back and forth in a really strange way. But honestly, for one night, it was pretty decent.

    I only liked that it was close to Downtown. It had enough space, the bathroom was fine, there was nearby parking that was free, and it looked pretty safe

    Not a safe neighborhood and absolutely no frills.

    Well, it’s not the Ritz, but it is really close to Metro Station, which we needed. No frills, but it wasn’t horrible and the front desk was very friendly.Sketchy at night, but don’t miss the Mexican Marketplace down the street and the Phillipe restaurant nearby. Very cool and the best hand dipped sandwich ever at this landmark deli.
