LA ADVENTURER HOTEL

LA ADVENTURER HOTEL

It's the best deal in town!

It's a hotel composed entirely of two-room suites. At this writing, the suites are $50 a night and hostel beds are $15. To put that in perspective, you could pay $50 for a rat-hole in Hollywood that looks like a crime scene, or $24 a night for a hostel from hell in Venice.

Rooms are comfy with wet bar/refrigerators, furnished nicely, with lots dressers and chairs made of real wood. Sofas fold into queen beds, for a two-bedroom apartment at night. Big TVs feature sports and movie channels. There are actual paintings on the wall.

The staff tends to be very nice young people who are friendly and seem happy to be working there.

This is one of those rare hotels that is more like a low-cost resort, a playground for weary backpackers. You will immediately notice the heated pool. There are tables, chairs, and pop machines around the pool... but it boldly goes FAR beyond all that. Like arcade games, pool tables, a cool bar, a popcorn machine, internet booths (and free WiFi access), and a massage recliner chair.

The pool crowd is a good mix of young and fun-loving types—though not in the Spring Break Gone Wild kind of way—Pacific Rim travelers, and a sprinkling of children.

Another unique feature of the place is all the freebies and festivities during the day. Free continental breakfast with muffins, free coffee and cookies each afternoon by the pool, free champagne party with free food and cake every night, dollar beer and margaritas at the bar. You can have a lot of fun just hanging around at the bar, and pool area tends to be very convivial with instant friendships. There's even a grand piano in the bar, where you hear some spontaneous sing-alongs.

The restaurant has dinner specials each night for $6 (and vegetarian meals) and will bring your order to your room, or poolside.

It's really close to the airport... and they will take you there or pick you up for free. Better yet, they'll send a free cab for you at the train or bus station; just call them by pushing the button on the lodging call board just inside the depot. So much for out of the way. And they have free shuttles that will run you to Venice Beach, a big shopping mall, or the "fishing village" at Marina Del Rey.
 
If you want to see more of LA, California, or Baja, step right up to the reception desk. You can book tours of town—Hollywood, Disneyland, all that stuff—take limo rides, shopping trip to Tijuana.

Personally, I don't think there's anything to mull over. If you're going to be staying in LA for a night or a week, and if you you want comfortable housing or to pay the rock bottom for a rack, the Adventurer is the clear cut choice. And you get free chocolate chip cookies!

Backpacker-style hotel with several bigger sleeping rooms. Also a lot of rooms for 2 people to stay. The majority of the people you will see there are backpackers gathered around the bar situated next to the heated pool. Situated close to LAX International Airport and free pickup service from the airport is available. The address of their website is: www.laadventurerhotel.com
