BUG review
This old haunt near LAX Airport offers cheap rooms and plenty of amenities. It is a large busy place for international backpackers, and offers numerous tours and free shuttles to the airport and beach cities. It is an old cheap hotel, and the décor, with its wall-panel mirrors and paisley carpets, could use a bit of an update. There is no kitchen, just a restaurant, but food and drinks are cheap. The outside common area has video games, television, a pool table, snack machines, and a large heated swimming pool. Dorms are packed with 20 beds and bathrooms are in need of a renovation, but it is clean enough. Some of the staff are rather discourteous.
