My room was clean and tidy, had two comfy beds and a decent sized private bathroom. The hostel wasn’t noisy, and although my room was off a main hallway I didn’t have any trouble sleeping at night. The hostel itself is in a restored 1910 manor house, and has an old Hollywood charm to it. I booked a private room with ensuite and was pleasantly surprised upon arrival that it felt much more like a hotel than a hostel!Īll the staff members I came across were lovely, and were happy to help with directions or advice on what to do around the city. The Hollywood/Highland Metro is only a 5 minute walk away and there is plenty to do within walking distance. The hostel is located on Orange Drive which is right off Hollywood Blvd, making it perfectly placed for exploring Los Angeles.
Described as a boutique hostel I was immediately intrigued. After resigning myself to the fact I would have to spend a bit more than I had estimated on accommodation to stay somewhere nice I came across Orange Drive Hostel by chance. The few that I had come across all seemed to be leaning towards the party scene, which I was not personally interested in. There were plenty of lovely hotels that were slightly out of my budget (some more than slightly) but not many hostels. When I started looking for a place to stay during my recent visit to LA I noticed there weren’t many options at the lower end of the pricing scale. Finding accommodation in Los Angeles can be difficult at the best of times, but when you are on a tight budget it can become almost impossible to find anywhere.
