The not-so-boutique dump stay.

There was nothing essential or “boutique” about this place. There was no towels, no hand soap, no toilet paper, no air conditioning, NO NOTHING!! And the hostel manager was a jerk! Checking in with this guy was such a pain!! Always left me and a friend of mine on voicemail whenever we tried calling to check in. I hate how there was no front desk check in, it was all virtual, and the fact they didn’t offer free parking was just the worst. I’m constantly struggling to find a decent spot in the street without risking a parking ticket and I just did not wanna wait till the last day to leave this dump of a place. Me and a friend got out of there ASAP! Never staying in a hostel ever again.

Disappointing Stay – Ended Up Leaving Early My stay at The Homestay Boutique in Los Angeles did not meet expectations. The check-in process was unclear—phone calls went unanswered, and we had to ask nearby people for help. We later found out that instructions were posted on the door, but this was not communicated in advance. Once we contacted someone through email, the communication felt unwelcoming. The room itself did not match the photos online. It had an unpleasant odor, lacked cleanliness, and appeared very different from what was advertised. Based on what we saw and how we felt, we didn’t feel comfortable staying the night. We ended up booking another place and leaving immediately. Overall, the experience was disorganized and disappointing, and I would not choose to stay here again.

Dingy Place, Not For Travelers

They posted old pictures of the property. This place is rundown & dirty not "boutique" (just like its sister property, Green HomeStay). Beware...the house manager of Boutique Homestay is very slow to respond when you need to check in & he'll have you waiting outside the property for a long time. This place also has a security guard, who is as discourteous as the manager. Many of the people staying there are homeless locals.
