    Not sure if it was the heater or the vents in the bathrooms but there was so much noise while we were trying to sleep. It was very disappointing. In addition to that, which has nothing to do with the place is the person next door was snoring from 10 pm to 6am. The walls are extremely thing so you can hear everything .

    Clean and organised. Close the most tourist attractions.

    Thin walls- as expected based upon reviews, so no surprise there. They also provided earplugs which was thoughtful.

    Clean, good value, comfortable, good location.

    Fun little place, however it doesn't seem to be a bar like the one on the pictures anymore.

    The lock box doesn’t work well. I also would have liked to experience all parts of the hostel. Since I had the studio I had no access to the dining/bar area. I was really looking forward to sitting there getting work done. Other than that I felt it was a great place and I would recommend it to others.

    I didn’t see any of the property other than the room I had. I stayed in the downstairs studio. It was very very cute and comfortable. The kitchen and bathroom were also cute.

    Very lovely hostel with a good price/value ratio.

    • Stayed 1 night

    The fact that the bathroom is shared is not clearly advertised (even though the place is indeed labelled as an hostel). The hostel is just next a road with a lot of traffic, and one windows of our room could not properly close, meaning we heard the cars loudly.

    The room and building is very lovely and nicely decorated. The bathtub was really nice, with foam, soap and bath salt available. There are some nice restaurant just next to the hostel and a small kitchen with free coffee available in the hostel. Even though the bathroom is shared, it is not a big issue as it is only shared with another room. One of the best place I stayed at in LA for that price, I will definitely come back next time I am in LA.

    Wonderful stay — a few caveats

    I think the room would benefit from a better reading lamp. The atmospheric lighting, while nice for taking a bath, is rather difficult to use for reading. The suite didn't include shampoo/conditioner/shower gel, so I had to go downstairs to find them in the shared shower. The windows didn't close properly, so the noise of the adjacent traffic was unavoidable while sleeping.

    Great location, unique charm, easy check-in process

    Super loud cleaning staff on phone at all hours of night, walls were so thin I could hear next door "neighbor" snoring, didn't realize there would be no windows anywhere. Keurig didn't work.

    Obviously beautiful and thoughtful decor. Opulent and vintage everything which I love.

    Decoration was great except carpet in rooms. Why go through all the trouble of making a place look nice and then throw scratchy outdoor carpet on the floor? TV would also be nice to have in rooms.

    Easy self check-in/check-out. Inexpensive, nicely renovated and interestingly decorated. Decent size rooms and comfortable beds. Good internet connection. Extras included like soaps, deodorant, toothbrushes and coffee/ tea. Location is great for exploring East Hollywood, Silver Lake area.

    The walls were thin and the bed not super comfortable but not a big deal

    The hotel is very unique. It looks more like a boutique hostel. It’s very dark inside and gives retro vibes. It was very clean and had a coffee maker and some other stuff for the bathroom

    The walls are VERY thin here. They do offer earplugs but even with earplugs in I could hear the folks talking in the room next to us clearly until 3AM one night and midnight another night. I did appreciate that they provide earplugs. It is somewhat difficult also with there being no one on site to ask guests to quiet down, etc.

    The Rosemary is such a cool spot. The space is really eclectic and exactly what you expect from the photos. If you love the photos you’ll love the vibe once you get there. The facilities were clean and we felt safe in the area! Very accessible to various spots in LA as well :)
