There was a huge spider in the bathroom, the room smelled funny, toilet paper was super scrtachy,no vending machines to get... More

We picked this place because of it's trip advisor ratings. Unfortunately, I felt it was missing a few important things such as towel rack/hook, full length mirror, luggage stand, coffee maker, hair dryer, mini fridge. Our room was on the 3rd floor and the wifi signal was quite poor. Also, there were so many holes/marks all over the walls and... More

I enjoyed my stay here. They are still working on the building but the main parts are done (the rooms) once they finish the hallways and stairwells this place will be perfect. It's a clean affordable hotel near the downtown L.A. with free parking, internet, satellite TV, and dogs stay for FREE. The staff is very nice and helpful. Yea,... More

The hotel was located near where my cousin's house, but close enough to get some rest and relaxation away from the crowds. Great location and great rooms for the price. Would definitely stay here again. More

Great location, close to lots of Korean Restaurant and Groceries. Zion Market (korean grocery store) is just 5 mins walk from Hotel. We stayed there for 3 nights. The room is big with king size bed, TV, one closet and one desk and a chair. Nothing fancy. The bed and the pillows are really comfy and TV got many channels... More

The shelter hotel was perfect for the price! The metro station that takes you to all the main tourists attractions is a couple of blocks walk and very easy! The staff were very helpful when we asked questions. The room was simple but perfect for what you need to sleep! Would go back again. More

It's located in downtown Los Angeles in the middle of Koreatown. My boyfriend and I stay at this place every time we visit. I have to admit, I have high maintenance, and this place always meets my needs. It has the most comfortable king size bed and the people who work there are so kind. They even remember you each...

The hotel is in a great location, close to the metro station and a supermarket. The rooms were very clean and tastefully furnished. The walls are bare but we ranked comfort and cleanliness above decoration! The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom had a great shower. Very modern and well-equipped. Our only quibbles were the lack of bar soap... More
