Los Angeles Zen Home

The location was great for the part of LA we wanted to be in. We were looking for something central where parking would not be too much of a hassle. The staff was friendly and helpful. We had everything we needed.

I had a really great experience staying here. The place itself is clean, peaceful, and exactly what you need if you want something simple but comfortable in Los Angeles. The atmosphere is calm, and it actually feels safe and well-managed, which isn’t always the case with hostels. What really made the difference for me was the manager, Humberto. He’s genuinely amazing—super helpful, responsive, and you can tell he actually cares about the guests. Any questions or small issues I had were handled quickly and professionally, which made the whole stay much smoother. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for something reliable, quiet, and well-run. And Humberto is a big part of why it stands out.

Very clean. staff were very helpful & friendly.

No problems. Everything went great.

Location

Last minute change. They put me in a different hostel, because my bedroom had been destroyed by former guest. The other hostel was Van Nuys. But they gave me a private bedroom with shared bathroom. I had paid for private bathroom as well. This last minute change, affected my plans for the next day. But I appreciate they tried to find a different place for me instead of leaving me homeless for one night.
