Freehand Los Angeles

Very nice staff, clean rooms, comfy bed, really cool location

Only one shower had pressure which was honestly the only downside to the entire stay. Didn’t affect us though as we had 2 in the room :)

It was exactly what described in the page and pics, actually stay is beyond my expectation! Definitely come and stay again here !!!

Location is great, convenience store right across the street and lots of restaurants, bars and coffee shops at a walking distance.

The only inconvenience was that every day very early there was a hotel workers strike right outside the hotel that apparently for the last couple of months, so I think there should be a warning about this.

lovely Hostel rooms, nice upstairs chill area. Really nice gym with weights, treadmills, bike, erg, cross trainer

While there is a nice and very clean kitchen (and some nice breakfast in the morning) with a hob, there is next to no kitchen equipment to prepare a meal. Whole foods a few blocks away offers good warm food, which is quite pricey though. There are nice spaces (rooftop, lobby) to socialise, but if you want to have a nice and light space to do some work you would have to venure outside and find a cafe, or visit the nearby LA public library.

Downtown locations within walking distance of shops, restaurants etc

Yes. Marijuana allowed to be smoked at the rooftop bar after pool closed. Staff looked the other way or were oblivious to the obvious odor.
