Hollywood Hotel
Staying at Hollywood Hotel was an absolutely delightful experience overall. The property is immaculate, with clean and spacious rooms that felt both modern and cozy. I especially loved the room key—it’s so cute I actually brought it home as a souvenir! The only minor downside was one staff member (Spanish-speaking) who seemed rather unfriendly, which slightly dampened the mood. However, every other team member I interacted with was warm, professional, and genuinely helpful. Location-wise, the neighborhood isn’t the safest for walking around, and there aren’t many attractions within easy reach on foot. We rented a car, which made everything much more convenient—highly recommended if you don’t have access to transportation. That said, considering the great value, excellent service, and prime location near Hollywood landmarks, this hotel is definitely worth a stay.
Hotel Normandie - Los Angeles
Staying at Hotel Normandie in Los Angeles was an absolute delight from start to finish. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a friendly smile—something that made the whole experience feel personal. Located just steps away from downtown, it’s incredibly convenient for exploring the city, whether you're heading out for dinner, shopping, or just soaking in the vibe. What truly stood out? The daily wine-tasting service—it’s such a thoughtful touch after a long day of sightseeing. The room itself was immaculate: spotless, beautifully decorated, and the bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept on. Plus, housekeeping came by every day without fail, keeping everything fresh and tidy. It’s clear the staff genuinely care about guest comfort. For me, this place isn’t just a hotel—it’s a home away from home. If I’m back in LA, I’ll be booking here again in a heartbeat.

Staying at Sanborn Guest House was an absolute delight! The accommodation was spotless, cozy, and well-equipped—perfect for a relaxing getaway. Gary, our host, was incredibly welcoming and friendly, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. He shared great local tips on hidden gems and nearby eateries, which added so much value to our trip. The location is fantastic—easy access to public transit and just minutes away from key attractions. With such a high-quality experience at this price point, the value-for-money ratio is truly unbeatable. I can’t recommend this place enough—definitely one of the best stays I’ve had in Los Angeles!
Best Western Plus La Mid-Town Hotel
Absolutely thrilled with the value for money! The hotel is perfectly located just steps away from Koreatown, where you'll find an amazing variety of delicious food options—everything from casual street eats to authentic restaurants. The breakfast was fantastic, fresh, well-prepared, and offered a great mix of choices. I even caught a soccer game during my stay, which added a fun touch to the trip. Everything about this experience was top-notch, and I’m already planning to return. Highly recommend this gem if you're visiting LA!
Holiday Inn Express & Suites Los Angeles Downtown West
The location is excellent—just about 4 km from downtown LA, making it super convenient whether you're exploring the city center by subway or driving. The front desk staff were incredibly professional and helpful throughout our stay. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable. I especially appreciated the coffee maker at the desk along with complimentary travel mugs—such a thoughtful touch! Breakfast was simple but satisfying, offering fresh juice, coffee, eggs, bacon, and fruit—all the essentials to start the day right. Great value for money and highly recommend this property for both business and leisure travelers.
The Metric - Los Angeles Downtown
Staying at The Metric in downtown Los Angeles was a great experience overall. The room was spotlessly clean and surprisingly spacious for the price—definitely more than I expected. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful, making check-in smooth and welcoming. Breakfast was simple—just some bread—but it was sufficient if you're on a tight schedule. One thing worth noting is that my room faced a nearby high school, so it was quiet and peaceful throughout the night. Dining and shopping are super convenient: just steps away from a fantastic Mexican restaurant with authentic flavors and generous portions, plus a huge 7-Eleven right next door for late-night snacks or essentials. It takes about 20 minutes to walk to the CBD area, but if you take the 16 bus, you can get there directly without transfers—super easy and time-saving. For travelers who value location, comfort, and value, this hotel delivers all three.
PodShare East Hollywood
I've never stayed in a hostel with shared rooms featuring double beds, and I was pleasantly surprised—everything was incredibly clean, the facility ran smoothly, and the place remained quiet throughout my stay. No issues at all. The only suggestion I'd make is adding a small notice near the door with contact information for the property staff—it would be helpful for guests who need assistance. Overall, it's a fantastic spot with great value, excellent location, and a very welcoming atmosphere. I’d definitely come back.
Shelter Hotel Los Angeles
As a frequent traveler, I always make it a point to stay at Shelter Hotel whenever I'm in the Los Angeles area—especially when visiting Ktown. The hotel is perfectly situated right in the heart of Ktown, with restaurants, grocery stores, and public transit just steps away. It's only a short metro ride to downtown LA, making it incredibly convenient for exploring the city. Located in one of the safest neighborhoods in LA, the property itself has excellent security measures that add peace of mind. The rooms are spacious and immaculately clean, and every time I check in, the front desk staff are friendly and welcoming. If you're planning a trip to LA, I highly recommend giving Shelter Hotel a try—it offers a unique, comfortable, and secure experience that stands out from the rest.
The Rosemary Silverlake
This place was absolutely incredible! From the moment I stepped inside, I was completely blown away—no idea what awaited me behind those doors. The room was unlike anything I’ve ever stayed in before, with so many thoughtful details that I barely had time to take them all in. I genuinely wished I could live there! The only minor note is how quiet it gets after 10 PM, but honestly, that’s just part of the charm and totally understandable. Overall, an unforgettable experience from start to finish—highly recommend for anyone looking for something truly special.
Hotel Silver Lake
Our stay at Hotel Silver Lake was a major disappointment. The room had a strong, unpleasant odor that made it impossible to sleep—my wife and I ended up checking out at 3 a.m. despite having booked the room in advance. The only positive was the on-site security and the fact that our car was safe in the parking lot. However, the neighborhood felt unsafe due to the large number of homeless people around. We were hoping for a better experience, especially given the price, but unfortunately, the smell and overall atmosphere ruined the trip. Would not recommend staying here if you're looking for a peaceful night’s rest.
La Royal Viking
The room was spotless, comfortable, and offered great value for the price. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. Located in a central area, it's super convenient for exploring LA, whether you're hopping on public transit or driving. We loved every moment of our stay and would definitely book here again without hesitation.
The Steady
Staying at The Steady was a fantastic experience—absolutely everything exceeded my expectations. The location is perfect, just a short walk from downtown LA and close to great dining spots and local nightlife. The room was clean, well-maintained, and the bed was incredibly comfortable—I slept like a baby. The staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any request. It’s rare to find such a peaceful, well-kept hotel at this price point. If you’re visiting Los Angeles and want a quiet, reliable base that’s both convenient and welcoming, this is definitely the place to stay. I’ll be back for sure.
