I booked this hostel because it was cheap and I really wasn't expecting much. However! Everything about 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! Right on the Hollywood Walk of Fame -- and a Metro station. Loved the place.

For Solo Female Travelers

To all solo female travelers, here's my advice to you. Book the all-female dorm as your first choice. But if you can’t get an all-female dorm and one of your roommates harasses you, ask to change rooms. I got harassed in the mixed dorm and when I reported it, I got switched to the female dorm with no extra charge! I would like to thank the people at the front desk for handling the situation so well. Also, the female dorms are quieter than the mixed dorms. There’s a lot of noise from Hollywood Boulevard and you might not need to wear earplugs in the female dorm. I stayed at Samesun for a week and it was a great location for doing all the touristy things. Will definitely consider returning on my next time to LA!

I appreciated the inclusion of a complimentary breakfast at this hostel, it was the first hostel I've stayed in that it was available every morning and not just the first day. My only critique about the breakfast was the lack of food group variety. 2 bagel options were great and variety of oatmeal was great, but with so much grain/bread options it would be nice to have a fresh fruit option such as bananas, orange, apples or even a fruit cup or fruit sauce, maybe even some individually packed cheeses. This was the friendliest and most social hostel I've stayed at. Only hostel where I was quickly surrounded by and included in group conversations if I was sitting in the common areas on my own. I tend to be shy and keep to myself because I don't want to disturb others so it was nice that others took the lead and just made me feel welcome. Being a gender-diverse individual, bathrooms are frequently an issue for me when I'm staying in hostels. There are rarely any ungendered shower and restroom options and the same was the case for this space. I was able to pick a mixed dorm but there was no options for showering and restrooms other than Mens or Womens. I ultimately chose to use the facilities that matched my sex assigned at birth but as I'm fairly androgynous I did still feel that I was looked up and down when using the facilities. Location was conveniently located directly across the street from the metro station.
