Stayed at this hotel, I liked that it’s super close to the Crypto arena, and lots of food nearby, grocery store etc. the staff was friendly. The room was as advertised. Nothing fancy or out of the ordinary but it had what I needed and for the price you won’t find anything cheaper that close. Very vintage building so that was cool.

I’ve been staying at Stillwell hotel for last couple years (when I travel to LA) its location is convenient for where I need to be downtown LA. The rates are affordable, Whole Foods near by, so you can stock up on some snacks, fruits or even light breakfast / lunch. Hotel / building is old (I think) and could use some renovations… at least the bathrooms. For the price & location it’s not bad. If I don’t find anything less expensive when I go to LA, I’ll stay there again. Location & price is most important for me

Never got a code for the wifi so I cannot rate it. Clean room with ac. Only thing, the bed was a bit too ‘firm’. Do not have their own parking lot but there’s a (paid) lot next door.

Old hotel but cheap in middle of dt la. Best I can say is it does the job. Parking is decent though it’s unattended paid parking. I wouldn’t walk around at night but if you uber should be okay. I’d stay here again but I’d look at other places before I stay here again

The building is old and the rooms are basic, but it's super clean and the staff is very professional. I really love staying here and will probably choose this place over others during my next visit. It's very easy to get to the metro from here. The Indian restaurant on the first floor is pretty good, too.

The hotel isn't the cleanest, and the vibe does feel a bit… “creepy” — BUT it was perfect for how much I paid. Even more, the folks at the desk were cool, restaurant in the lobby is some of the best Indian food you'll find in LA, and there's a Whole Foods across the street if you need anything for your stay. It's a great budget hotel if you're already planning to spend a ton of money elsewhere during your stay in LA. I'll definitely be back!

Obviously, an older hotel, and the rooms reflect this. The staff were friendly, the bed were comfortable but only had two pillows which made it difficult to sleep with. I had to fold one of the pillows in half just to get enough height for my head. The TV reception kept breaking up. All in all if you need an inexpensive room to stay overnight in LA, the Stillwell is a fair choice, but bring an extra pillow or some form of neck support. Also bring your own shampoo and conditioner.
