David, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Private rooms were nice although whole building has a musty smokey smell. Bed was comfortable, shower was great with awesome water pressure. Only real complaint is paper thin walls where he had to to listen to a couple break up for 6 hours.

Kimberly, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Good for price

Met some cool people in my room. I would suggest bringing your own blanket as the ones they give aren’t super big/warm and they don’t always change them out between guests
Mackenzie, 6-night trip

I come here all the time, it's one of the best hidden gems in LA.

Clean and friendly staff! Great roof top bar and restaurant downstairs!
Crystal, 6-night trip

2/10 Poor

Horrible

Parking was $60 a night. Paid the first day then they charged me again when I checked out. We were smoking a cigarette out front, and the worker told us we couldn’t be there smoking but the lady he was just trying to flirt with wasn’t a problem even though she was smoking too. Horrible for price
Jolene, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice boutique hotel. It has a rooftop bar as well
Jimmy, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Unprocessed refund.

I never got to stay because I forgot my id. That’s not the main problem though, I asked for a refund online and in person because I booked for the hotel within the hour of me arriving there and I never got it. I want my money back please.
Iman, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing!

First time in LA for KPop Concert. Staying at Freehand made it even more enjoyable and relaxing! Shared a 4 bed Female Quad with great roommates :) Housekeeping was daily and on schedule. CVS, Whole Foods and Dunkin Donuts were within walking distance. I felt very Safe. I checked in closed to 12 AM, after a Delayed flight. The Front Desk was still open and Check In was very smooth, with extra Towels. I did bring my own wash cloths because it was not provided, but it does not change my experience 😊 I will definitely come back real soon! 👍
Brittani, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Peter, 2-night trip

Great location and really cool property. The roof top pool was amazing! If you're looking for a little more privacy I would suggest getting the quad room.
