    If you are looking for a hotel that's in the middle of LA, this is it for you. It is an old office…read morebuilding, it is remodeled nicely. The windows have no insulation, so you will hear the city loud and clear. If you are a person who needs silence, this is not the hotel for you. We were on the 10th floor and could hear people laughing from the street AND the rooftop bar. The view from The Broken Shaker is stunning, the staff is friendly, and it is impeccably clean, but the beds are not very comfortable. I think my favorite part was the shower. I've never had such high water pressure in a hotel before! I wish I could've taken that shower home. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, and would stay here again.

    I had a confirmed reservation from April 2 to April 5 and completed online check-in in advance,…read morereceiving a QR code as confirmation, full price prepaid. When I arrived on April 3 (still within my stay period), I was informed that my reservation had been TOLD as a "no-show" on April 2 without my knowledge and canceled. I received no notification at any point, even by the morning of April 3. As a result, I was denied both accommodation and a refund. This is extremely unreasonable. I had not canceled my booking, and I had already checked in digitally. The lack of communication and accountability is very disappointing. I would strongly caution others when booking here.

    Across from the busiest area of Hollywood there are two entrances to this hostel. The stairs are…read moresteep but there are two handrails to help. The front desk has two or three employees depending on the time. Everyone was friendly; Barry, Carlos, Niki, Zena, Tosh, Taylor, Miguel and Oscar. I reserved a room online at: https://walkoffamehostel.com/ I reserved a private room and it's not ready until 3 pm. I wish I would have known that before showing up. There is a luggage room with surveillance and I left my bag. I have an expensive Apple PowerBook and they held this behind the front desk. I left and returned at 5 pm to find all of my things cared for during my absence. First observation is aside from the ratty steps at the entrance this place is incredibly clean. The floors, the bathrooms, the ledges, the lounge area, kitchen; there is no dust and the scent of clean is everywhere. I love the hot and cold filtered water machines located all around the public areas. I literally walk ten feet from my room for this. My private room number 3 has a queen bed, refrigerator, tv, cable box and two remotes. I could not get the cable to work but Carlos at the front desk came in and fixed it. He also explained the remotes. The queen size bed is comfortable; I would prefer if it were higher off the floor. I blame my mother for spoiling me. Huge closet area. It's bigger than my master bedroom closet. I have a European air conditioner that I don't need tonight because my big window has a good evening breeze and there is a ceiling fan above the bed. The tv sound and quality is excellent. WiFi power is excellent; this is very important to me. This WiFi is stronger than my stays at Hilton, Sheraton, Marriott and Holiday Inn Suites. The room has some art and good lighting but there are two wall red lamps and I can't find the light switch for them. Miguel came to my room and showed me how to use. The windows facing south of Sunset have lots of noise from the parking employee conversation and laughter. It just echos in the room. I finally closed the double pane windows and there was no longer any noise. To turn the ac I had to go retrieve a remote from the front desk and return it. These ac units are completely silent and work very well. The temperature and lack of noise in my room was excellent. All I could hear was moving air. A friend came over to deliver food and passed by the front desk. They came to knock on the door and asked for his ID; I love that because it's a younger clientele and it feels right. I'm very impressed. Love the location. Lots of charm. There are $40/beds in shared rooms if I wanted to save bucks. The rate with tax for my private room is $131.00. Everyone receives a free continental breakfast. Jimmy Kimmel live is right next door. If you want the LA experience, stay here. History, action, community and all of it in a safe clean and friendly environment. Location location location.

    Check in time is 3pm and checkout time is 11am. The room was Super clean and fresh. The place is…read morequiet and cosy. Nice and friendly front desk staff. Good WiFi connection. 2 minutes walk to metro train station. The downsides are that private rooms are not en-suite so you have to use communal shower and restroom. My bed dint have a blanket. Also they don't have digital room keys so if you go out on personal errands you have to ring the main entrance door buzzer to be let in. Also no microwave in the room

    I really enjoyed my stay here. Sometimes with hostels it can either be really good or really bad…read moreand I was pleasantly surprised with Samesun. . It's big and clean and has all the bells and whistles. There's a ton of artwork that is worked into the design of the space so you can easily see graffiti labels on the walls. . I booked a one night stay in an all female four (4) bedroom dorm and only encountered one of three women with whom I was to share the room. They give you a towel for free upon checking in and there's a $10 fee to do laundry for two hours and a $5 fee to stow your luggage if need be. You can find a locker in your room for easy storage and they have changing rooms in the restrooms which are designated for both men and women, thankfully! For the common areas, they have a huge kitchen with several refrigerators, an electric stove and a communal dining table. There's a lounge too with bar seating, a pool table, benches and chairs. You can also find several water filter stations in the building. . There are quiet hours from midnight to 7am which at that time the lounge and kitchen are closed so make sure to eat dinner prior to then. Lastly, they offer a free breakfast from 7am to 9am. I deducted one start because Hollywood can be loud and sketchy at night, but I had no issues. As for parking, it's either paid in a garage or street parking. I was blessed to find free street parking on Hawthorne street which is a short walk from the hostel. I highly recommended and would stay again. . Update: I work in LA often and travel down from the 3 hours or more to do so. I have a ride that is picking me up the day after I was due to check out of Samesun this weekend, but the host/receptionist at the front desk today (a young gentleman with glasses and locs) told me I need proof of ongoing travel leaving Los Angeles in order to stay there. Which I don't have because again, a friend is picking me up post check out. He essentially gave me an ultimatum to book ongoing travel in order to check in or cancel my reservation. Mind you, this was not the procedure when I checked in last week. So, I was in Hollywood with no accommodations for the next two days because the hosts here are inconsistent with carrying out their policies. Just because I don't have a plane or bus or train ticket doesn't mean I'm not leaving the city after I check out. And it's not like they are scanning the travel ticket or asking for the reservation numbers for the travel to put it on the reservation, so it's really unnecessary. . Come to find out, per their policy, if I'm a local USA traveler I could use an out of state driver's license to check in (which I have), but he conveniently left that part out.

    I booked this hostel because it was cheap and I really wasn't expecting much. However! Everything…read moreabout this place was wonderful. The staff was helpful, the people staying there were mostly interesting international travelers and the place was spotlessly clean. Plus location, location, location!
