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.

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.

Do not come here!!!

Management were very rude and I couldn’t get ahold of anyone. The phone number and address listed are incorrect. The check in instructions are posted on the back door for anyone as confused as I was booking this place. The people are somewhat friendly but would be careful as a woman. All the rooms are Co-ed.

Stay Away from this BUST

They get onto you for anything. It's dirty smelly, and grimy. The people are not friendly, and this more of a homeless shelter. Don't stay here if you can help it. Checkin process is also a pain.
