If you have any other option, don't go. It doesn't have a sign as a hostel out, so it's hard to find. We arrived early at night and there was no one at the reception or the doorbell to call, so we had to give voices and a charitable customer came out and called the manager, who doesn't speak any English. He didn't check in and just gave us the key to a room.

I would pay for no return.

While it's true it's a cheap hostel, how much money are we willing to save for having a bad experience? The host doesn't basically talk, nor the details of anything, solo cobra, cleaning is zero, the bathrooms are filled with old dirt, that is, dirt is impregnated with years, they don't change the covers between the beds, only the sheets, that's our terrible and unhealthy appearance, plus the mattresses are wrapped in plastic which makes every movement sound and the bed gets super hot, finally the ring enters the rooms at any hour making noise and lighting the lights in the mattress, the breakfast that includes no eggs and toasted eggs.

Fatal Fatal

There's a large kitchen, and there's breakfast: milk, juice, musli, oatmeal, cookies, bread, cheese, sausage, tea. There's more than two bus stops near 7-eleven, up to the supermarket. People in the kitchen have a quiet breakfast in the morning and evening when they're feeding.

They live on a budget, they feed on food.

LA Hostel is super cheap. 30$ per night in dorms and they offer simple breakfast and dinner. I found the beds pretty comfortable, but the washrooms are not very clean and there is not enough toilets. You can see all kinds of travelers over there because of the price: from the backpacker to the old weirdo... The reasons why I gave a 2 star is because of the staff. They do it for the business and not because they are interested in travelers. Also, they barely speak English and are ZERO accommodating. You really need to follow up the rules, otherwise, no possibility of finding an arrangement. For instance, I got up there at 7 o'clock in the morning. I knew the check in is at 11, but I just wanted to leave my heavy back back but there was no way she would open the gate for us to do that. We needed to wait until the office opens at 8:30. And we got not much to do around there since the location is not the best in L.A. for those who want to do tourism. 

Cheap but uncool

I spent 4 nights at LH Hostel and had a nice stay. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Rooms are simple but from my point of view that's okay considering the price. They offer towels, shampoo and body wash for free. Beds are okay for me but I am not too picky when it comes to mattress and stuff..

Breakfast was good. They offered a "buffet" consisting out of toast, butter, peanut butter, jam, ham, cheese, muffins, cake, fruits and cereals as well as milk, orange juice, tea, coffee and water. We had to cook dinner by our self. They provided noodles, instant noodles, sausages, ham, and tomato sauce). Breakfast was availabe 7AM to 10AM, dinner from 7PM to 10PM. Tea, Coffee and water was free during the entire day.

Location of the hostel is not too bad. Time it takes to walk to Metro is about 10-15 minutes. Withing 2 minutes you will reach bus stops which bring you to Hollywood or Downtown. Bring a smartphone with Google Maps though - public transport in L.A. can be confusing... ;)

I personally liked the hostel. Although it was nothing special I had a nice stay and was glad that I could save some money.

Simple but nice place to stay, friendly staff, good when u want to save money!

I stayed here for two nights in August 2016. When I got there I was surprised to see little signs of it being a hostel. It looked like a private house. Also it barely said "LA Hostel" anywhere, except on the gate where it was handwritten and hard to see.
The owners should put up more signs outside!

When I got in the owner seemed stressed out, and did not make a particularly good first impression. She was nice and helpful the following day though.

The hostel seemed quite clean and respectable. It's a bit small though. It's a small private home converted into a hostel.

My room was very good. The bed was fine, and the air condition in the room worked great. The other people in the room were very relaxed and quiet, which helped me sleep well.

The atmosphere of the place was relaxed, and quite nice.
Breakfast and dinner was included, which is good. Free WiFi is also really nice!

The main concern I have with this hostel is the location. Koreatown seemed to be a quite shady neighborhood. I wouldn't wander around there in the middle of the night. Just saying. Although it's quite close to the nearest subway station (Wilshire/Vermont), which is good

Good hostel

provides breakfast and dinner, shampoo, body wash even mouth wash. reasonble price, good location, easy access to metro and bus, close to Sunset, Holywood, little Armenia, Melrose, in the hearth of Koreatown, nice kitchen, clean bathrooms, they provide scholarships to students 

great place to stay

The accommodation is clean. but the management is very strict. free breakfast (cereal and milk). but very far from everything. wifi is ok. they offer to sell tickets to Universal studios which is cheaper if you buy it from the gate. which great coz i save money.
