Stayed at this hotel, I liked that it’s super close to the Crypto arena, and lots of food nearby, grocery store etc. the staff was friendly. The room was as advertised. Nothing fancy or out of the ordinary but it had what I needed and for the price you won’t find anything cheaper that close. Very vintage building so that was cool.

Old hotel but cheap in middle of dt la. Best I can say is it does the job. Parking is decent though it’s unattended paid parking. I wouldn’t walk around at night but if you uber should be okay. I’d stay here again but I’d look at other places before I stay here again

The building is old and the rooms are basic, but it's super clean and the staff is very professional. I really love staying here and will probably choose this place over others during my next visit. It's very easy to get to the metro from here. The Indian restaurant on the first floor is pretty good, too.

Disliked: Amenities
Obviously, an older hotel, and the rooms reflect this. The staff were friendly, the bed were comfortable but only had two pillows which made it difficult to sleep with. I had to fold one of the pillows in half just to get enough height for my head. The TV reception kept breaking up. All in all if you need an inexpensive room to stay overnight in LA, the Stillwell is a fair choice, but bring an extra pillow or some form of neck support. Also bring your own shampoo and conditioner.

The hotel isn't the cleanest, and the vibe does feel a bit… “creepy” — BUT it was perfect for how much I paid. Even more, the folks at the desk were cool, restaurant in the lobby is some of the best Indian food you'll find in LA, and there's a Whole Foods across the street if you need anything for your stay. It's a great budget hotel if you're already planning to spend a ton of money elsewhere during your stay in LA. I'll definitely be back!
