Pros: Gold Digger’s Hotel: cozy room, comfy bed, everything clean, super equipped, TV with amazing sound, staff super friendly and replies immediately to messages, free coffee and common area, in the upper level the music sound is not too loud.
Cons: Location was a bit scary: many people living on the street and far from the main tourist points (but well connected by bus). There is no cleaning of the room during the stay (beds not made, towels not changed, toilet paper not replenished).

Pros: Very stylish and clean room with great amenities. We enjoyed using the record player in the room, and also the live music downstairs! (Even though the bar and music was on until late, we couldn’t hear anything from our room)

Loved this very well designed, quirky little hotel.
Pros: Fantastic little property in a great location with great service. The design was exceptionally beautiful and the small number of rooms made it feel intimate. It’s attached to both a bar and a recording studio. I personally loved the thrum of music in the background - it felt like going to sleep with a a very rowdy house party. Also the bed was EXTREMELY comfy. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
Cons: I wouldn’t recommend staying here if you don’t like noise - like I said, I loved it but it might not be everyone’s cup of tea.

Can’t wait to come back!
Pros: Such a funky and cool space. Staff were lovely! It was great being able to head straight downstairs to such an awesome bar at night. Could hear the sound from above but it didn’t bother us at all and definitely didn’t interrupt sleep. My favourite place to stay after a long journey through California

Very beautiful hotel to meet great people
Pros: great new equipment with a retro record player, great staff, nice bar below with live music
Cons: Booking still sends the wrong coordinates for the parking lot (which was already communicated by the hotel) the check-in was a little difficult. But we were helped very well by the staff

AWESOME!!!
Pros: Awesomeness overload! Comfy beds, linen and bathrobes made of great materials. Vintage record player in our room with a selection of great vinyls. The room had all the amenities and all the style! There is a bar downstairs with live music and a great cocktail menu. Even though it is located in the same building, we did not hear anything much from our room. We had earplugs and a white noise machine provided. The staff is very friendly and had no problem with helping us checking in earlier.
Cons: Located in not-so-nice neighborhood, but you don't really need to walk anywhere far as the hotel has everything you might need.

Incredible hotel, wonderful staff, amazing music and community in the hotel venue.
Pros: I stayed in Room 6 which was perfect for one person, and had a lovely private balcony I would sit out on in the evenings to watch the sunset. The staff brought a brand new turntable up to my room so I could play the new records I'd just bought from The Last Bookstore. The room came with a kettle and garment steamer (love!!) and the guest lounge had great coffee. There were some amazing acts which played in the hotel venue, and I ended up making some wonderful local friends at one of the gigs!
Cons: Just be aware that there is no elevator to the second floor, so the venue is not accessible to wheelchair users. The area isn't the safest but having the bar open until 2am every night made coming back late at night a lot more comfortable!

Unique experience
Pros: The hotel is 100 % unique. The combination of music studio, event location and thoughtfully curated rooms is something special. The people who run the place are inspiring minds with a great heart. The design and equipment of the room is extraordinarily good. Parking is available nearby and for free (which is in LA a real USP).
Cons: The area of the hotel is central but not in the heart of a vibrant district. Meaning no cool coffee shops or anything like it in walking distance. But I guess that's the thing about the US. You simply drive everywhere. One word regarding the noise as well. As cool as it is to have free live events every night just downstairs of your room, combined with an awesome with great drinks, the noise in our room was just over the edge. We are good sleepers and yet, you feel like being on stage with the band when in your bed. I would still overly recommend this hotel for alle the good things mentioned above, but you really need to be willing to go to the live acts and enjoy the music instead of trying to get a rest in this place. :)

Modern and comfortable room but beware of noise from the bar
Pros: We loved the room itself - the design and decor was super modern and the facilities went over and above what we were expecting. The bed was exceptionally comfortable and we arrived to free drinks tokens and a vinyl on the bed which was a nice touch.
Cons: The noise. We stayed in room 3 for 3 nights and there was loud live music every night, followed by a DJ / loud music from the bar. It genuinely sounded like the band was playing in the room, the walls were thumping and vibrating. Luckily we were quite jetlagged and tired so we managed to somehow sleep, although it wasn’t preferable and we still had very disturbed sleep. The room needs soundproofing as no ear plugs will help with that level of noise directly below the room!
