Shelter Hotel Los Angeles

Perfectly fine place to lay your head, but don't e

Very early morning and check-in time staff were friendly and helpful. There is a fee for early check-in, which surprised me. Bed is very comfortably and room was a nice size. The AC is a window/wall unit, which means the AC may not be as quiet and cool as some wish. I'm used to it because I live in an old building and have a window unit, but I can see how someone who lives in a newer building might find this odd for a hotel. Nice toiletries in the bathroom with shampoo, conditioner, lotion and body wash. Nice location in walking distance of coffee shops and eateries. Basically, this is a no-frills hotel that is a perfectly decent place to lay your head.

One night staffer barely looked up or acknowledged me when I went to ask a question. When I asked for an iron and ironing board, they were in poor condition. I'm not sure if the iron was working properly and it water spilled out from it when I got it. Ironing board was old and stained. Some of the upholstery in the room was stained. Didn't bother me, but might bother some people. Why is there not even a vending machine to get water? I had to resort to just filling several small glasses of water from the lobby.

very cozy and comfortable

no reception on direct tv

Comfy beds, pleasant staff, clean room, big TV. Amazing Koreatown location one block from main Korean mall and super great BBQ.

Ping pong room is dreary and had pest issues. Pool was dirty.

Friendly and helpful staff

Rooms were nice and better than expected. Parking easy and free. The staff were very helpful and even mailed an item I left behind free of charge. I've been in much bigger and more expensive hotels who would not do such a thing.

Absolutely nice young staff, really huge and clean rooms, big plasma TV, free and stable wifi. Close to subway. Quiet street and neighborhood. Approximately 20-25 minutes travel to downtown and 30-35 to Hollywood by public transport. All in all one of the best places i've stayed! Prices are very reasonable for this level of service

Superb staff who really made a difference, excellent central and safe location with free parking, and very clean.
