PodShare DTLA Arts District - Hostel

The pros: the staff were very welcoming and helpful. The restrooms were kept clean and had hot running water, a little on the cramped side but not bad. It also is a short walk to Little Tokyo and to all the shops and restaurants nearby.

I liked the kitchen & tv room

Location is decent and I like the setup. The Pods were actually nice, and well designed. The Staff was very responsive and I like the late check-in and late check-out procedures. I didn’t like the lack of privacy/ no curtains rule for the pods. They treat the pods more like bunk beds and they don’t even want you to improvise a curtain. There’s No air conditioning. It’s too dark at night during quiet hours, and there’s not enough ambient lighting or night lights to make navigating to the bathroom easier. The Bathroom and shower stalls are too cramped, this makes changing clothes difficult. There is no point to having monitors in the pods, because there’s no power supply to even connect them to. I would not recommend this place to people with mobility issues. It’s walkable to little Tokyo and Dtla, but there’s no convenience stores or gas stations nearby, so if you want something late and close by you’re gonna be outta luck. Most of Dtla (including LT and the Arts district) is a no go past midnight, and the closest 24hour thing that is open is a 7-11 ten minutes away, that just might happen to be closed for cleaning right when you need something.

The staff was friendly and it easy to move in even for one day. It feels a little cramp for the bathroom and shower space. It feels nice to know that my belongings would be fine and untouched when I leave it at my pod. It might be because of the weather at the time but it felt quite humid and but sure if we can request a fan to cool down but besides all that, it wasn't too bad. The sink does have a lot of dirty dishes. I had a good experience for my first time at a hostel as a solo traveler.

Convenient location, I walked from the LA Union train station late at night with no issues! Bed was really comfy, they provided a small sample-size packet of shampoo and conditioner. There seems to be people who are staying there long-term (which is totally fine with me) but one of them had music playing out loud for almost the entire night! I had to use my own airpods to play a podcast to myself to drown his music out and managed to sleep fine, but it was mildly annoying

Everything about the look is great and the beds not being attached is great . Not having to worry about shaking beds is great. And the stairs to the top bunks are great . One bathroom was broken and it was an inconvenience most times .

Excellent location within walking distance from Union Station and several cool neighborhoods. My bed and pod were comfortable and check-in instructions were clear. Bring earplugs since the city emits constant noise, although not too bad at night. The bathroom situation is not ideal but otherwise a convenient spot. I'd definitely book it again!

Convenient and clean.

El mejor lugar que me he quedado y la gente super amable

Location Restrooms are too small and showers unclean

Very good

I got robbed here. DTLA arts district is a theft operation. Run, run fast if you find yourself here and never look back.
