Okay for the price

Room was outdated and there was not enough light in the room. But the staff were really friendly and there was free breakfast (waffles, toast, juice, coffee). It was okay, you get what you pay for. The hotel is conveniently close to the subway station and theres lots of good k-bbq restaurants nearby.

Don’t pay a penny to stay here

Parking is a pain in the butt; I should have known then this was going to be a bad stay.There security is unfriendly and will harass for walking in the hall ways not cool when you have cams all over. Most of the staff can’t understand what you want little English to be spoken; so how can they help you with all the problem the have at this location? The room that I was in felt unwelcoming and could have had bed bugs. The security lock was broken and everything just looks dirty along with many other things. This is what it should be listed under BS because the building is so run down. Hallways or smelly, rooms sink is un-sanitized and very old and chipping out. The bathroom seems to be cleaned only by wiping it out with any detergent or cleaning chemicals from the Dollar Tree. The breakfast was simple with not so bad coffee. I just want to inform you to stay away.

Smelly

Hallway/room is smelly, sink is unsanitized and very old and chipping out. The bathroom seems to be cleaned only by wiping it without any detergent or cleaning chemicals applied.

Under construction

The room was clean, comfortable and has adequate space for the price. However, the carpet in the halls was old and worn out, some lights in the elevator buttons were not working, the breakfast room is very tight, the remote control for the TV would only move down the channels, not up, the TV itself is an old analog model and the volume was too low. However, the hotel is being remodeled and when that is finished it could be much better. It is located within Korea Town, two blocks of a Metro station.

Good location, but poor room maintenance

We received a room with a serious problem of insects (tiny red head flies) that made our first 2 nights stay very uncomfortable. We ask front desk 3 times to check and solve the problem, until they changed us to a different room without those flies. Apart form that disgusting problem with the flies, location is good and value for money was good. For staying in LA without a car is a good option, since you can move by metro and buses, to and from the hotel.
