“The interior of the building is very nicely done. As someone who stayed in a 6-bed dormitory, this is one of the nicest shared rooms I've stayed in over the years. Having the rooftop pool is a great bonus.” - Finntechnz

“Very nice old building in downtown LA. I booked a large private room which was spacious and comfortable, and excellent value for money. Unfortunately there were a couple of private events on the rooftop during my stay so I was unable to use the pool.”
