Little Tokyo Hotel

Good place. It close to Japanese market place. The room are small and share rest rooms. Washing machines are available here

No air conditioner, not good in summer.

Good location, reasonable price, but …

Even tho at first I didn’t like the idea that the rooms don’t have their own bathroom… everything was clean and organized

This property is sadly in need of some attention. It’s expensive, old, shabby and smelt in the corridors and shared kitchen. It’s more like a hostel with shared sad bathroom and shower. Bed squeaked, ceiling fan didn’t work and a tiny, tiny room. Sad indeed

Great little hotel! Little Tokyo is one of my favorite areas in LA, and I was so happy to stay right there on 1st St. No frills, shared bathroom, but awesome location and clean building

The hotel is what it offers. The rooms are simple, without luxuries, but they have what is necessary for a short stay. It was very hot, but the rooms had fans. The common bathrooms are always clean. It has a kitchen with refrigerators to store food, a stove and dishes for cooking. All very practical for a short stay. It is definitely not for people who expect luxury, but for guests who appreciate an unpretentious place in a very good area, right in front of Little Tokyo. The staff was very friendly, although it did not interfere much with the stay. To enter there are stairs, there is no elevator. Which is important to know if you travel like us, to work at the LA Art Book Fair, with many suitcases full of books. But the young man at the reception helped us carry them. And the MOCA, where the fair was held, is next door, which is very practical.

The check in was a breeze and the man who greeted me was so nice! When I got to my room, the house keeper was just finishing up and she was also very nice. The bathrooms and showers were kept fairly clean. My only downsides were that the walls were very thin so I could hear people talking in the hallways and snoring at night and the pillows were a bit flat. Other than that it was perfect for my purpose which was to be close to Union Station which is a stop for the FlyAway bus to/from LAX and in a safe/quiet neighborhood. I also LOVE Japanese everything, so I was able to take advantage of many of the yummy restaurants on the same block, the bakeries across the street, and of course walk around the Little Tokyo Plaza. If you just need a place to sleep and leave your things because you are out and about throughout the day, this is the perfect place especially for the price!

Very nice place to stay ! Right by a lot of shops n not a far walk from the metro or union station so it’s perfect for me
