Hotel near Hollywood,Los Angeles
With a stay at Samesun Hollywood - Hostel in Los Angeles (Hollywood), you'll be steps from Hollywood Boulevard and Hollywood Walk of Fame. This hostel is 0.1 mi (0.2 km) from Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel and 1.6 mi (2.5 km) from Hollywood Bowl. Make use of convenient amenities such as complimentary wireless internet access, concierge services, and shopping on site. Grab a bite from the grocery/convenience store serving guests of Samesun Hollywood - Hostel. Featured amenities include a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage, and laundry facilities. Make yourself at home in one of the 39 individually decorated guestrooms, featuring refrigerators and microwaves. Prepare your meals in the shared/communal kitchen. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Bathrooms feature showers, complimentary toiletries, and hair dryers.

"Remember to bring your own slippers and a padlock. You'll need to go up one flight of stairs to the second floor for check-in. It might be a bit tough if you have a lot of luggage, so a backpack is recommended. The front desk is 24-hour, and the staff are very friendly. Guests come from all over the world, creating a nice atmosphere (though everyone still maintains polite distance). You can store your luggage in advance. Towel and hairdryer are provided; you can ask for them at the front desk. Hairdryers must be returned after use. Upon check-out, you need to place used sheets and towels in the recycling bin. When storing food in the kitchen fridge, make sure to label it. Pros: Excellent location: Very close to the subway station, just one stop to Universal Studios. The hostel itself is right on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, so attractions are right outside. There's also a supermarket nearby if you want to cook in the kitchen. Breakfast provided: Simple breakfast starts at 7 AM (coffee, bagels, fruit, oatmeal, etc.). Beds have shelves, USB ports, and blackout curtains: The shelves are handy for small items, the USB ports are convenient for charging, and the blackout curtains block light and add a bit more privacy. There's a small changing area in the room (in the 4-person female dorm). Cons: The entire building has a strong smell, either of cleaning products or insect repellent. The kitchen isn't 24-hour (it seems to be 7 AM-midnight). You can't cook at night (jet lag might wake you up then!) Minor inconveniences (not necessarily cons): The main entrance requires ringing the doorbell for front desk staff to open it, as you can't use a card. While a bit inconvenient, it's understandable. Being in a bustling area, this measure enhances security. Overall, it's still good, and I would book here again if the opportunity arises."

Community refrigerators to use if you like for personal groceries. Everyone was welcoming and very polite. I felt very comfortable and safe. This hostel to set up for long term if needed. The check in/out process was respectfully simple. The free street parking was a bit challenging so I added the optional service to reserve a parking on the hostel property. Close the shopping stores, restaurants, grocery stores, bank's, bus stations, etc. I highly recommend this hostel. "

Environment: Great location, very nice environment, close to Anaheim Convention Center and Disneyland, the surrounding area is excellent.

This is entirely not their fault but they handled it amazingly and even asked me if I wanted to swap rooms, thank you guys"

"I stayed at Stay Classy in San Diego over Survivor Series weekend, and honestly, I was blown away. From the moment I checked in, everything felt smooth, organized, and genuinely welcoming. The staff kept the place spotless, the vibe was laid-back but professional, and the whole building felt safe and comfortable — exactly what you want when you’re traveling for a big event like WWE. The rooms were clean, the beds were surprisingly comfy, and the showers were way nicer than I expected for a hostel. Everything was easy to access, and they really do a great job keeping things quiet at night but fun during the day. The location couldn’t be better, either — close enough to walk everywhere I needed to go, including downtown and Petco Park for Survivor Series. For the price, the comfort, and the overall experience, I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Stay Classy definitely lived up to its name, and I’ll absolutely be staying here again the next time I’m in San Diego."

The location was also convenient and the overall atmosphere was pleasant. However, my first impression was not the best because the female staff member at the front desk on my first day was not very friendly. Her attitude felt a bit cold and unwelcoming, which made the check-in experience less pleasant. Aside from that, the rest of the stay was fine and overall still a positive experience."

The address of the accommodation is easily accessible, next to the bus stop. There is a convenience store. Restaurants in the same area The disadvantage is that it is an area with a lot of homeless people. for cleanliness There are some that are clean and some that are not that clean because it is a residence where many people live. Overall, it was worth the price paid.

The location is fantastic, with direct access to the D line. K-town also offers plenty of great food and shopping. It's a converted detached building, and the front yard is beautifully decorated. Inside, there's a lot of vintage decor, making it feel like it used to be an office, complete with a piano. I booked the room hoping for a tall arched window but it didn't have one. However, the overall facilities are clean, and the bed outlets and lighting are well-thought-out and convenient. The front desk staff are very welcoming.

The staff were pleasant and very friendly. The room was a no frills type room. While it had a really nice bathroom. And the bedroom had a mini fridge and a microwave. It didn't have a dresser. It did have a tv with cable.I ordered a room with a king size bed, and got a room with one queen size bed. And a headboard left on the wall where the second queen had once been. It gave the room a spacious feeling. Despite being the wrong size bed, I didn't complain. I'm not more than. 6' like some people that need a king size bed. Anf at the end of the day, it's just a place to sleep and get a shower. It was a comfortable sleep. And despite being on the corner wasn't as quiet as I had hoped. But it's a motel. Non-smoking rooms available. There is a pool. I didn't check it out though I was too tired my first day, and too busy the next. If you don't require much, this might be for you. The price is right and the location is prime.

Very expensive for a B&B. Nice spot in the Castro/ Mission district near Dolores Park. Well-maintained & reasonable management. Lots of stairs to go up into main house lobby — wrought iron gates with intercom to buzz to get entry into property. Try to get a room in the older main house to minimize stairs! No AC. They have limited parking spots behind the two B&B houses (access from Dorland St) for US$35./day plus tax which is a steep price. Make sure u book a parking spot in advance. Beautiful garden courtyard in the back. Sadly we never got to use it. Try to get a room that faces the other “house” or the backyard - quieter. We had a front room Deluxe King Room 36 which looked nothing like the sample room photos (only one Room 24 w courtyard view, sofa, coffee table). We got a smaller room approx 290sf vs what we paid for 32sq.m, 344sf, no closet just small armoire to hang a couple of things, no sofa, no coffee table, no balcony. They were kind enough to give us a refund for the price difference between the Deluxe King we booked & the Standard King we got. Had to ask for them to vacuum room. Found tissue under headboard/bed, dusty. Not the kind of room you would want to spend much time in —teeny tiny TV, faced front noisy street with electric bus passing by. No screens in windows so had to close windows at night to keep critters out. Bed was ok. Pillows were synthetic & lumpy. View was of electric lines & school across the street. Beware some electric outlets. One was burnt out. Breakfast was repetitive but nice to eat in a lovely breakfast room or outdoor deck. Hard-boiled eggs, muesli, fruit, muffins/ carbs, American coffee, juices. Fortunately SPRO café was next door if you need a great cappuccino or chai latté! Didn’t get a chance to enjoy their wine & cheese. Contact them on WhatsApp +1 (415) 297-6891 to discuss rooms available.

The motel on the highway side of the road is noisy and the room facilities are very general, so it is cheaper. The size of the room is OK, the problem of resting for one night is not big, and the requirements are high to give up as soon as possible.

Title: Perfect Weekend Getaway at Spyglass Inn, Pismo Beach I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Spyglass Inn in Pismo Beach, and it was a great experience. Nestled in a prime location, this inn offers easy access to the best of the area's natural beauty and recreational activities. Proximity to the beach is unbeatable. Waking up to the serene views of the ocean and the calming sound of the waves was a daily highlight. The beach itself is clean and inviting, perfect for both sunbathing and very peaceful at dawn and sunset.The area boasts several scenic hiking trails. We took advantage of these and were rewarded with breathtaking views and the chance to reconnect with nature. Food options around Spyglass Inn also added to the charm of our stay. We indulged in some local cuisine that was as delicious as it was diverse. From fresh seafood to hearty breakfasts, plus a great steak in Arroyo Grande, 5 min drive. The inn itself provides a wonderful atmosphere to unwind. The room was comfortable and well-maintained, offering all the amenities needed for a relaxing retreat. The staff was friendly and helpful when needed, going out of their way to ensure we had a pleasant stay. Overall, our weekend at the Spyglass Inn was a delightful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a rejuvenating getaway in a picturesque setting. Whether you're an avid hiker, a beach lover, or just in need of some peaceful downtime, Spyglass Inn is an ideal choice.

I recently stayed at this wonderful hotel in San Diego and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome with their genuine hospitality and attention to detail. Check-in was quick and effortless, and I immediately felt at ease. The room was spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully designed, with comfortable bedding and a relaxing atmosphere. I especially loved the little touches—plenty of charging ports, great water pressure in the shower, and a balcony with a beautiful view of the city and ocean. The location is perfect—close to San Diego’s best attractions, including the waterfront, Gaslamp Quarter, and Balboa Park. Whether I wanted to walk around, take a short drive, or simply relax by the pool, everything was easily accessible. The hotel amenities exceeded expectations. The pool area was a highlight, perfect for enjoying the sunshine, while the fitness center was well-equipped and clean. The on-site restaurant offered delicious meals with fresh, local ingredients, and the breakfast buffet had something for everyone. What really made my stay special, however, was the service. Every staff member I interacted with went above and beyond—whether it was offering recommendations, arranging transportation, or just greeting me with a smile. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting San Diego, whether for business, a family vacation, or a relaxing getaway. I’m already looking forward to staying here again!

The location was easy to find, and the beachfront was beautiful. It's a standard motel. The only downside was that we were assigned a room on the second floor with our luggage, which made carrying it up a bit challenging. However, the room itself was quite spacious.
