It was a unique experience staying in a pod in LA. I enjoyed my stay. The staff was great and the property was very clean. The neighborhood surrounding the property was a little off putting when I first arrived but I quickly was made to feel safe and comfortable once I was inside the property itself.

Despite the rain, the staff went out of their way to keep things simple. I enjoyed the coffin/pod setups but the place wasn't that busy. He did say that as long as people respect their rules that things go smoothly even when busy. I would like to see more welcoming common areas but appreciated the charger in the kitchen and how emaculate the place was. would like to see this type of setup in an industrial space or setup in an asymmetric fashion as they hopefully expand. Little expensive, but it was a holiday weekend, thanks again! (:am

Great place to stay for travelers looking for hostels. Each pod is secured and locked with its own card. Once door is closed, you have your own space to rest and relax, much better than normal hostels which often disturbed by other travelers. Cleanliness is excellent and host Kevin is very helpful. Location is easily assessable by bus and rideshare. I saw some comments saying the area is not good. But I am from Toronto so it is totally fine by me. It's LA, the whole place look like this except Beverly Hills. LOL

Kevin was super friendly and accommodating. The pods were surprisingly spacious (~4x4x6 ft) and comfortable. Movie room with large TV and massage chair/recliners. Kitchen access with fridge and microwave but no stove. No parking is inconvenient for those traveling by car. Street also floods when it rains.

The property was incredible value, in the property felt safe, clear rules and guidelines, the pods were excellent. Super restful stay! Kevin was an excellent host would highly recommend this to anyone and everyone. The only downside was relied on rideshares more than I would have liked to because of the location of the property. This is not their problem I chose to stay there. Definitely worth the price you pay!

The pods have comfy beds, pillows, and sheets. Staff was excellent and made sure to keep everything as neat and clean as possible. Shout out to Kevin. There are convenience stores and dine-in food places well within walking distance, so that was a plus. Aside from that, the outdoor lounge area is a great bonus for those who just want to chill and watch a movie for the evening. Overall, my experience was great, expectations were met and surpassed, and I look forward to returning in the near future.

7/10 The security is precise and reliable so that you can stay safe. Unfortunately, this hotel is capsule-type, so you might be disturbed by some noise from other guests. They order you to pay an additional $10 per day as a cleaning fee. But the host sometimes doesn't work, and you may have to use the same bath towel for 2-3 days. Therefore, I need help understanding about $10 per day. Moreover, there is only 1 hair dryer for all of the bathrooms. However, the host is very gentle and calm, and the area is so quiet. I may repeat here next. Note: They have 2 kitchens, but you can only use microwaves.

The guests didn’t understand the situation , she was upgraded to a private room. Not the shared dorm. She had a closet. Towels are provided ANYTIME YOU ASK US FOR ONE , if you stay in shared dorm ,you receive a new towel daily, as there is no place to hang one. As far as cleaning fee look at every review will say place is spotless. It’s a shared place. People constantly make messes that we are on top of the second it happens.

Really cool concept! The location was clean, quiet, and in amazing condition. The indoor and outdoor "theaters" were reqlly copl, though I was too busy to enjoy~ The pods themselves were a little cramped length-wise for me at 5'9" but it was manageable. HIGHLY recommend if you're spending time in LA!

Excellent place to stay!
In summary, my experience was quite positive, taking all aspects into account. The facility was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. However, one inconvenience was the need to store my belongings in lockers on the first floor, requiring multiple trips to access them. The staff members were incredibly helpful and accommodating. On the downside, there was a consistent issue with the owner notifying me via text whenever I forgot to close a door. While I understand the desire to maintain the property, the constant surveillance felt uncomfortable. To my surprise, the manager, recognizing my frequent forgetfulness, upgraded me to a deluxe room at no additional cost. This room was notably more spacious and comfortable, eliminating the need for reminders about door closures. Despite this minor issue, the staff was warm and welcoming, making my stay enjoyable. I'm satisfied with my choice and would certainly consider returning if I revisit Los Angeles on a budget

I had a great stay here while in LA acting in a movie. The place is insanely clean, so so so quiet. The staff was so friendly in meeting me at the front when I got there, helping me find street parking, and explaining how everything worked. The basic pods are small, so if you are claustrophobic they may not be for you. I was upgraded to a luxury pod which is big enough for two people. It was a lot like camping. The property has a lot of rules. Basic things like keeping very quiet, not leaving your things out, being courteous to others. Since the pods are close to each other, the rules are there to make sure everyone has a quiet, relaxing stay. The hotel had a lot of pods booked but it was SO quiet it genuinely felt like I had the entire building to myself. Highly recommended for solo travelers who want to save money on hotels. Street parking wasn't a problem, and it was located close to the USC campus. The entire place has a cool sci-fi sort of theme going, and a cool outdoor area to hang out in with a firepit and large TV.
