Top The Smell Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Los Angeles Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Thank you"

Hotel Figueroa, Unbound Collection by Hyatt

8/10 Good

"The rooms were cute, clean, and comfortable, and I really liked the overall style of the hotel. The only downside was the check-in experience. The lobby was extremely crowded, with a lot of people trying to check in at the same time, which made it feel chaotic. The wait in line was over 30 minutes, and even after waiting, my room still wasn't ready. If the hotel could improve the check-in process and better manage the crowds, it would make the experience much more enjoyable."

Freehand Los Angeles

10/10 Excellent

"I didn’t get to explore the whole place. I only stayed a night. I stayed in a quad room and requested a bottom bunk. The guy at the front was nice to follow through. I thought I had the whole room to myself, but another solo traveler showed up later. The room was small, but that didn’t bother me. I was happy we had our own private bathroom! The mattress could be better!"

8/10 Good

"Don't let the unusual choice of decor in certain portions of the lobby scare you. This hotel is clean, very comfortable and the staff is super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. As others have said the rooms are on the smaller side and the bed is walled in on 3 sides, so not ideal if you don't want to crawl over your partner in the middle of the night. The shower is a little tight, but great water pressure. I enjoyed dinner at the hotel bar and the Grand Central Market is just a block or so away, so many great choices there. The breakfast buffet is also very good. The location does give you pause about walking in the area at night, but if you take an Uber/Lyft no issues were encountered. Overall a really great stay."
