Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I stayed at the Rumi Hostel for two nights and I loved the atmosphere and how comfortable the bedroom and living room were, as well as the convenience of the complimentary breakfast. It was great value and worth the stay. The metro stop was also close by as well as good visiting sites. I would definitely like to come back here again whenever I visit LA next time!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It's a small facility, but it's a perfect spot for traveling solo, I stayed to attend a concert nearby. There are a lot of plants in the outdoor area which makes it feel like an oasis in contrast to the usual LA smog. Kitchen is well equipped, quite clean, overall a great value. Highly recommended.

I've known about the Rumi for years but this was my first time staying. I'm glad I did. You can't beat the location if you need something in central Los Angeles or Koreatown. The facilities and property was clean and quirky. Easy access to public transportation/metro. Would definitely stay again.

Honestly it’s great if you’re stopping by and quick in and out. The bathrooms are a bit aged and so is the property but it gets the job done. I thought the breakfasts were going to be premade but you have to make them yourself. No real issues the staff were super friendly and nice! I would definitely come back again if I need to be in the area
