This stay was perfect as a last minute trip for my friends and I where all we needed was a place to sleep in. The twin size bunk beds were more than enough room to have a couple sleep in. The lady at the front desk was also really helpful and welcoming. Will be booking this in the future if I ever come to DTLA with my friends again.

The rooms were nice and tidy, easy to navigate, and as a heavy sleeper, I was unbothered by the nightlife noises, only when a high-powered car revved it's engine was when I was slightly bothered awake. Other than that everything was fine and I recommend this place for heavy sleepers. Loved the Halloween theme going around the place as well!
