Very clean and nice hostel for anyone looking for a place to stay in the Downtown LA area. Conveniently five minutes from downtown and very easy check in and check out process. Definitely recommend booking at Forty-First place hostel!
Wonderful Vibe , Quiet Location , Love the Aesthetic inside the room , lovely hot water ! Parking is a challenge but overall the stay overrides that ! Definitely would book again
Personally, I think all aspects are very good, my English is not good and he is very patient on the phone, so thank you very much, I will come again next time!
Amazing! What went well?
I was very pleased with my stay at Forty First Place Boutique Hotel in Los Angeles. We enjoyed the deluxe room with a balcony-it was extremely clean and immaculate. Housekeeping consistently showed great care and attention to cleanliness, with fresh sheets and a very welcoming atmosphere. Overall, great vibes and a comfortable stay. We will definitely book again.
Very Clean and gantastic and d service. Quiet with good parking away from the neighbood, which sees s tame me as well. I have stayed twice and would not go back if it wasn't quality. In a world where Sevice has been forgotten, they excel
DO NOT STAY HERE
I had cockroaches in my room. It was gross. Not enough towels. Just overall not worth my money. Also another traveler got mixed information on his room, and was trying to enter my room.

Do not stay there. The area is terrible, annoying car parking, room looks nothing like the photos, small beds and dirty. And my bathroom door was stuck locked so I packed up and booked somewhere else.
Your building manager is much much more than the title implies. The service from Mike and Cassandra went way above and beyond what people would expect more like a personal concierge the room was exceptional, clean neat and tidy. This is a little gem of a place in an otherwise sea of customer service people have forgotten.
