Plaza Hotel Gardena

"The worst place ever!! That’s not even a hotel, hostel or motel. Total scam!!! It’s says free parking but has not parking at all!!! U have to look around the neighborhood to find a spot on the street where to park. THATS NOT A FREE PARKING INCLUDED, THATS NOT AN AMENITY TO BE INCLUDED! I paid 80usd for a room that was so tiny that we couldn’t fit our luggage. The bed had only one sheet and was spotted and found hairs on it (I can not confirm that were cleaned) The bathroom was ok, just mold on shower. The room as you can checkout the pictures I took, was a total disaster. Ventilation system “stick” to the wall with scotch tape! The door was broken so i had to pull it harder to try to close it. Was NO A/C !!! Not even a fan! We had to open the window for “fresh air”. It’s Los Ángeles, and it’s summer. It’s really hot out there for being without AC when you paid for it!!!"

"This would be a nice hotel in a remote village in Mexico in the 1970s. The room came with one tiny bar of soap, one small worn out towel, and there were many hairs on the pillows and on the bed sheets, leading me to believe it was not washed since the last guest. One hair on a pillow was either a nose hair or an eyebrow hair. I stayed here in an emergency with my toddler daughter. I opted for us to sleep in our clothes on top of the covers after discovering the hairs."

"Checked out early this morning due to cockroaches crawling on my face last night while I was sleeping. I had 2 nights left in my weekly stay but the roaches made it impossible to stay, ive lived in conditions as a child (cockroaches,bums on the sidewalk, loud music, etc) that this hotel posses but it's one thing for a building structure to have cockroaches but its a totally different ball game when you have vicious cockroaches , in the beginning it was bareable but the night before last they started to crawl on the t.v making it difficult to focus on t.v shows since the t.v's are placed high up they are unable to be reached . The price is reasonable ; 1 person 350$ 2 person 360$ shared bathroom no deposit. Check-in was easy ,were asked the basic questions ..(ex.how many nights/weeks, how many people")The bathrooms are kept clean for the most part. Idk if one of the tenants kept stealing the toilet paper or it really was being used that much .. Trash is to be placed by the front office if you have any. They also have a public microwave that doesn't really heat well but does the job after 5 minutes. If you have ANY food in your room whatsoever in the room , you must MAKE SURE you put it in the refrigerator. Upon check out when trying to explain to the older male at the front desk of the issue he immediately began to shake his head as if they dont have roaches but then again English is not there first languageso maybe he wasn't even understanding me. After telling him I'm not looking for a reimbursement/refund he began to listen after I explained the situation I walked away and all he could say was "have a good day" so obviously they dont care for there tenants. Overall clean & quiet place to stay just a bad infestation of unruly cockroaches.. And parking is very limited."

"This is a low price stay. Room very dim although big window. What was strange to me was an option for a room with no bathroom for less $'s.You used a public toilet and shower in the hallway. If your on a tight budget it's an option. The place was very clean and quiet. Taco stand across the street was pretty good as well."

"It is nice and well decorated, homey considering the price. The bed is surprisingly comfy. I had my own fridge and sink in my room, shared bathroom BUT the bathroom is very clean and looks nice all the time, never seen it messy even in passing. (Some rooms have private bathrooms)TV is included, as is wifi. You cant get a better deal in this side of LA. I paid $399 for a week here. Lowest I've paid for any hotel out here, and it is the best out of 3 I've had that were more expensive... and much less comfortable. The tenants here are even of good heart and comfortable to speak to, even though they speak a different language predominantly. Very sweet people."
