I was unsure if i would arrive just before or just after the cutoff for checking in & the staff was extremely accommodating & responsive to my updates/willing to work with me in the event i'd be in late. Check in was quick and easy, as was checking out! Absolutely loved the smaller space i was given and definitely would book with them again

Affordable price,

I arrived late at night but self check in was allowed for the ones who arrive later than 11pm. A bed was comfortable. Shower and toilet were kept clean. Also staff was friendly. I only stayed here for a night but I am willing to visit you when i visit LA again.

The bathroom is too tiny. But the bed is big and comfortable. And the location is good. Cuz u can walking 6 mins to A little Tokyo. It’s just the price is high for Hostel but other things are barely ok. One night sleep is ok. 2 to 7 nights is too much : Not worthy.

Good for a night

First impressions weren’t great as we didn’t receive an email on how to find the entrance despite informing them of our arrival time. When we did check in, lots of sirens went past so we weren’t hopeful. However the beds were comfy and big and the other guests were pretty quiet, quiet time was 10pm-10am but it was quiet the majority of the time. Bathrooms were very small but clean and the showers were lovely. Probably wouldn’t want to stay longer than a night due to lack of privacy and safe storage

It's really close to the Union station and Little Tokyo, it's a cozy place to stay the night, during summer it gets a little hot inside but has big windows to cool the place enough
