Hollywood Hostel


I am really surprised. This is the best hostel I went to, ever. It is the cheapest youth hostel you will find in Great Los Angeles (31$ a night, the prices displayed online are not the right ones), located in West Hollywood, close to the Highland Avenue and on Hollywood Boulevard. It is just in front of the famous Kodak Theater and Chinese Theater, and on the walk of fame! The best location you will find, much better than the USA Hostel in Hollywood also. The hostel is huge, with free coffee all-day, a very nice common room lighted by colorful spotlights, with a pool, a bar, coaches and kitchen. There is a small basement room ideal to play poker, a TV-room with a huge TV, a free internet-access room open 24/24. The dorms are great, 4-beds dorms with lockers and space. There are three "public" showers for the men cleaned every day. They are 2 floors. You can drink anywhere in the hostel at anytime, there is no curfew, and there are parties almost every night in the common room; actually there is even a beer pong table! The staff is ok, the guy who organizes the parties knows every good places in Hollywood and I guess Los Angeles in general, so feel free to ask. There are markets all around to buy whatever you want to. And if you are lucky, you will also see from the window the cops come to make an arrestation. It happens when I was at the hostel, about 10 police cars, two ambulances and two fire-truck came because a guy has been snaped with a knife just on the other side of the street! Welcome to Los Angeles, welcome to hostel Hollywood!

PS: in the main hall close the front desk, there is a poster signature where you can add comments. If you check in the middle, you will see <3 Paris, MC with a french flag. That's me!
