Pros (+) Was a great stay, nice Staff and the tours were free and good. Breakfast is everything you need and a good and new kitchen.
Pros (+) Surprisingly clean.
Cons (-) Communal lavatories and bathrooms. But this is a hostel so it's acceptable.
Pros (+) Great location, great staff, and great people staying at this cool LA hostel
Cons (-) Shared bathrooms are a bit awkward
Pros (+) So, to start off, let me say that this is not a hotel. It's a cheap way to share a room with seven other people and have a little base of operations to explore from.

Also, having a lot of internationals around makes for great conver...
Cons (-) The only thing I didn't really enjoy as much (and this really couldn't be avoided) was sharing a room with 7 people.

Pros (+) Great location and price. Pleasant staff. Very clean. Surprisingly quiet.
Cons (-) Long flights of stairs to room. Very slippery tiled shower floors -- I fell! $2 extra for towels.
Pros (+) Great breakfast, and very clean all around. Super helpful and friendly staff. Lockers in the room for your valuables and a really soft blanket! The beds were pretty good and there were sockets in between each bed with room for about 6 plugs.
Cons (-) Everyone showers in the morning so the water gets really cold. This is not their fault though:)
Pros (+) Nothing
Cons (-) Everything. The minute we get there we are ignored for a good 15min while the front desk flirted with a girl in the lobby. We are finally helped, but with attitude from the minute I opened my mouth to check in. Then we were told I had to have a passport to check in. I provided my out of state drivers license and was told that still wasn't enough. They had to have an itinerary showing that I planne...
