Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Hostel was clean. It was in a very nice neighborhood. Friendly staff and stay was easy.
The property had really nice common areas and in general all areas such as bathrooms, bedrooms, and common areas were always clean.
The rooms were a little noisy at night due to car noise from the street.
For the price, Melrose Hostel is a wonderful spot if you need an affordable place to stay that‘s relatively central to LA / Hollywood. The staff was very pleasant and accommodating of anything I might have needed. The hostel was also very clean and the staff cleans the place everyday so I never had to worry about that. IMO the best part of the hostel is the roof, amazing views of the city and the Hollywood sign. There‘s enough restaurants, lunch spots, coffee, etc around the hostel to find food options. I never thought that my stuff or person was unsafe given the neighborhood but I do recommend bringing locks as just as precaution if you‘re unfamiliar with hostel life. Thank you Melrose for a great time!
I traveled early so I needed a place to crash for 1 night. As a solo black lesbian, i really try to find places that seem comfortable to me. I would definitely book here again. The staff is so helpful and courteous. I never felt out of place. I did a mixed room with 5 others and everyone was quiet, polite and neat overall.

Very grateful to the staff who waited for my arrival.
I liked everything is this property because it was safe, convenient location, all people whom were as guest were friendly, respectful, cool atmosphere, clean, and more. I enjoyed the breakfast there it was a nice suprise from the hostel side Healthy and yummy. They have detailed my name ready on the bed that belonged for my stay that was a nice detail. Mostly the clean area and also the receptionist lady was very cool and helpful, even she helped me with information about the public transportation for Santa Monica and Airport.
And I could not say something that I didn't like it from this hostel i just can say good things. Thank you very much.
Wonderful rooftop lounge area with a great view of the Hollywood sign! Great location next to many bus stops so its easy to get around/back to! Friendly staff and it was great to be able to meet other guests from all over the world!
