The worst thing about this place they let ppl check in your rooms all threw the night they don’t care they will let ppl storm in your room 12am it’s no cut off for ppl coming in and out the rooms and same with the cleaning crew everyday whether you’re in there or not they coming in to wake you can’t get much sleep at a place like this it’s just a place to sit your bags down and leave tbh not a place to rest

So this place is not safe ppl constantly checking in and out there has been 3 fights here it’s hard to sleep here they have house keeping cleaning your room daily whether your in it or not they will leave your door wide open and clean ppl constantly checking in and out of your room even if it’s late they will let ppl check in and come to your room and wake you up out your sleep they also pack the rooms with as many ppl as they can and they mix the dorms with men and women so if your a female you may get a room with all men it’s just what they do here if ever other place is booked i still wouldn’t stay here it’s super uncomfortable at the bungalow

This is a beautiful location, the management is pretty good with communication and help as well. Area is walking distance to many bars, restaurants, and clothing shops. I highly recommend this location.

Das,Hotel liegt zentral Nicht weit vom Walk of Fame .
Personal Freundlich, Zimmer Sauber.
Frühstück leider nicht so Gut,wenig Auswahl und wer nicht Rechtzeitig kommt, bekommt nur die Reste.
Teilweise laute Musik bis tief in die Nacht.
Parkplatz kostet extra und ist sehr eng zu parken.
Ist eher ein Hotel für Junge Leute.
Zimmer etwas in die Jahre gekommen.
Es gibt eine Tischtennisplatte und Billard.

服務態度不佳
Visited in march 2024
Worst place I've ever stayed in the world. The place is surrounded by homeless people, the employees spend the day using drugs and drinking with strange people from the street and other guests, and that's why they don't take care of the place, everything is dirty, there's a lot of shouting at night, sometimes it gets to there are fights between addicts and the police have to come and intervene; They sell parking spaces much more than capacity, so you have to park your car on the street and they don't give you your money back. And many more things that I don't have time to describe.

I booked a private room for my husband and myself over the phone about a month ago and today emailed and phoned to confirm the reservation and they have no record of it AT ALL! Thanks Banana Bungalows for being absolutely incompetent and treating your customers with contempt!

Awful unsafe experience. Would never recommend anybody stay here.

The place was decorated well with a good sense of make a place look nice, nice colors, nice breakfast. Had a parking for an extra charge which was fine but if you park in front of someone else you had to give the car keys to reception at they move it which was not very pleasant to hear as personally had a rental vehicle and cannot risk others to drive it so it was a bit tricky situation but overall I would say it's an OK choice. The room size was fine and you could cook if you had time. Very clean, good job to the cleaners.It was good you could walk to the shops .
I'm not that happy to pay that much money for this. On Friday night people were playing basketball until 01:00 am in the morning, we had to sleep because we were leaving early in the Morning and we couldn't because of the noise. People were making so much noise like they were inside the room, very unhappy with the fact there were no set times of when to keep the quiet times as not all are going for parties. I would say if you are planning of having a lot of noise around and party as well you can go in that place. You could get the hairdryer if you give the ID which is weird, most places the have the hairdryer attached to the wall so it could be a better solution rather than have to give personal ID with risk. Also they are taking a credit card in case of a damage of the room, they photo copy it and when you leave no body Check right you go if you have done something and the printed information stay with the hotel, it felt weird but the biggest was the noise and the carpet was proper dirty and my socks turn up black from white, obviously is not about cleaning it and hoover it but is about maintaining it and use a machine to clean it properly so you can have your shoes off. Not rules really apply in this place so it felt a bad choice and expensive.  I wouldn't go back to stay unfortunately unless there are some set up rules regarding the quit times. It didn't felt very safe to be honest, from.the main street people are waiting and it was a guy talking to someone from inside and went with us inside while we were entering the hotel and start looking the cars and go around the hotel and then left very quickly he was talking to someone but really don't know who stay in this hotel/hostel.

Excellent location-exactly in the middle of "everything". Walking distance to walk of fame, chinesse teather..etc. 10 min by car to Griffith observatory, from there 30 min by walk.
Check in/out super easy, no problem, receptionist friendsly. I paid private spot for my rental vehicle otherwise is first come first serve. I was there for 4 nights, after 2 days they came to change my towels, excellent service.

Definitely worth every penny. It offers great choices for breakfast from pastry, muffin sandwiches, and drinks. There is a wide screen tv and seats downstairs where people can hang out with heater on cold nights. There is laundry inside the vicinity. There is private kitchen in our private room with tables and chairs, some utensils, pans, dishwashing liquid and sponge. They are also informative with many brochures and posts on the nearby attractions and how to get there. There are also plenty of parking.

This is a great value hostel in the Hollywood location. Staff is helpful and polite. We got a room on the 2nd floor with a queen bed and a bunk bed for two, a kitchennette and bathroom with towels and toiletries. Room is spacious and well-maintained. Parking is on-site for minimal charge. Breakfast offers cereals, yogurt, fruits and beverages. Location is a few meters away from the walk of fame, subway and buses. I feel safe in the property

1/ Price:
The price may seem high, but considering the location, in the heart of L.A, on Hollywood boulevard, and amenities (parking +++), that is worth it!

2/ Location:
Super! Right on Hollywood boulevard! It would have been perfect if it were a little closer to Gausmans chinese theater, since last Vine street, this famous boulevard becomes a little more craignos... but the location is ideal for visiting any Hollywood, even on foot! Otherwise, the Hollywood area is ideal for visiting the centres of interest of L.A because it is fairly central!

3/ Staff:
Young staff & dynamic as in many inns! They do not speak French (and then, what still is not necessary to dream...) but aim to offer our local Franglais... very understand, ready to help & full of give advice!
Cleaners spend every day in the rooms.

4/ Rooms & Facilities:
The rooms for 6 small but well equipped with bunk beds, TV, shelves... and Fan! (very useful summer months;)). The decor is very colourful and trendy but is starting to age has a little, so do not be too pictures of the website...
The cuisine is quite large, with a table, and a large fridge, freezer, plates, crockery and! Convenient to make your own kitchen when you have it rather fast...
The private bathroom has a bathtub/shower, a toilet (which was arrested on our arrival...), and a sink.

5/ Cleanliness:
The rooms are clean, cuisine and dishes a little less. As for the bathroom, cleaning is rather basic...

6/ Services:

Many services are available! Internet access, breakfast, games, organised trips... in short full of services, but the best... Free parking! With L.A, it is a luxury has not to miss!

7/ Security:
Pas de security problems in the inn. The doors of room close with keys (not a card), and a grille closes the entrance from 23:00. Your car is in security inside the inn. However, avoid leaving walk late, because Hollywood boulevard was a place at night, especially for the part Is, from Vine Street... however, drive, no problem!

COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT:
Super inn! Very nice atmosphere! If you want to meet people, do as us, share a room for 6 people! We met a very nice English!

" We had a private room with bathroom. The room is large with a fridge and microwave. The bed is comfortable. The noise of the city are expected. One is on Hollywood boulevard therefore even the night is traffic. The hostel organizes entertainment in the evenings and therefore there can be music until midnight. The room and the bathroom are clean when we arrived but the housekeeping was not done during the 3 days. Personally that did not disturb me considering the price you pay for 3 nights and the lack of time past in the room. Breakfast included consists of 2 types of cereal, the sandwich bread coffee, tea, and orange juice. The location is not very reassuring in the evening. We always returned before the night is us were never get bored but was not very reassured. There is a metro stop just next door, it is the right rouge."
