The room itself was great; however, one of the main reasons I chose this hotel was for the pool and jacuzzi amenities. Unfortunately, the jacuzzi was closed for the duration of our stay, and this was never communicated to us at check-in.
Additionally, although check-in was listed as after 4:00 PM and we were told our room would be ready, we did not receive access until after 5:00 PM. We were also not provided with basic information, such as where the pool was located, and only found out by asking a staff member in passing.
The check-in agent was not very welcoming and appeared disengaged. We initially gave the benefit of the doubt, assuming it may have been an off day; however, during check-out, the same lack of customer service was evident. When we inquired about possible compensation due to the jacuzzi being unavailable and not disclosed, we were told there was nothing that could be done and no one else we could speak with.
Overall, the lack of communication and customer service was disappointing and impacted our experience.

I stay here often and have always gave 5 star reviews but this time it sadly was the complete opposite, for 1 our check in was at 4pm and we had to end up switching rooms and checking in until 545pm , 2nd the room we go smelled strongly like urine , the speakers on the tv were blown out snd the shower head in th bathroom was broken , to make matters worse the lady in the lobby that helped me this time was completely un professional and talking to me like if it was my fault they did not have my room ready , overall i might have to consider a different hotel next time which sucks because i normally love this hotel

First time booking at Levels Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles and i can confidently say i will never book here ever again. Driving into the parking structure i asked for directions from the valet guy and he was extremely rude ignoring me at first then just pointing not saying anything. After I figured out parking, i went to check in and staff was rude, right off the bat, they were eating and talking ignoring me when there was NO ONE else in line. Felt discriminated because i look extremely young. PRIOR to booking i asked for information about decorating the hotel room which i received a text saying it was okay as long as i clean up before i check out to avoid extra fees. When i arrived they said balloons and rose petals were NOT allowed for safety reasons. They could of let me know prior to booking when i asked them the first time. This caused a really big inconvenience for me because i prepaid a lady to help me set it up because i thought it would be okay like i was told originally. There is lack of communication. While checking in the manager at the time was rude implying I couldn’t afford to be there because i asked questions about the deposit. This made me feel uncomfortable. Later on during the day i headed down to the lobby where it smelled horribly like weed. Lobby was filled with ghetto people and a homeless who werent staying the night. Right outside the entrance there was a man harassing women who passed by whom no one said anything to. Overall my experience was -10/10

Stayed at this hotel for 2 nights while in LA. This was a good stay if it hadn’t been for the bed bugs bites I noticed when I was back home. I contacted Expedia and the hotel. The hotel claims since I did not complain in my 2 nights there they won’t do anything for me now… it can take a couple days for the bumps to show up after being bit. I have attached pictures of my bites. Please be cautious booking this hotel as it looks nice but the inside as clean as it seems! DO NOT BOOK!!

Avoid this hotel:

Terrible service and hidden fees.
Our stay was incredibly disappointing. The front desk staff was rude and unwelcoming from the moment we arrived. We were hit with over $350 in unexpected fees, bringing the total for two nights over $1,000—yet the hospitality was non-existent.
The room lacked basic amenities: no bottled water, no iron, and no included wifi. To make matters worse, the room and fridge were not properly cleaned. Valet is extremely expensive with no self-parking option, and no one offered to help with our luggage. For this price, the lack of basic service is unacceptable. We will never return.

The staff here are really nice. There are added expenses and parking at check-in. This is DTLA, so I wasn't surprised. The kitchen is nice and having laundry is worth it on those long stays.

We had a 2 bedroom unit. Unit was large and so nice! The property is in good condition but does show some wear and tear. A couple of things I wish I had known…

Parking is $61 a day which is insane. I had no idea. There is a lot directly across the street that is $15.

Music is played on full blast well into the morning hours (2am) and even with all windows closed you hear it loud and clear.

Lack of hot water.. to be fair we read they were having water issues and had to turn off all the water for a few hours but no hot water for 2 days with kids.. not good.

Free WiFi- couldn’t get it work, not even once

Lastly - you have to leave the hotel to get food or coffee. They give you a 12 cup coffee maker and a 1 cup pod of coffee. Wasn’t sure what to make of that.

Now all that being said, the rooms were large, the pool was super clean and the property felt safe. The unit also had a washer and dryer that works great. So depending on what your needs are this can be the most amazing hotel. If traveling with little ones, I might suggest a more family friendly property where there is quiet time and food options.

Staff was great, no complaints just a few callouts to help others.

My family and I recently stayed here and unfortunately our experience was not the best. One of the restrooms in our room would not get hot water at all. The water stayed cold and my daughter even cried because of how cold it was.

The room itself also stayed very warm and we couldn’t get the temperature to cool down enough to be comfortable.

Because the hotel is located in downtown Los Angeles, it is also extremely loud at night, which made it hard to rest.

Most importantly, I was very disappointed with the handicap parking situation. This is my second time staying here and both times the handicap spaces were taken up by luxury vehicles. When I asked about it, I was told to just park in the garage instead, which defeats the purpose of having designated handicap parking.

Overall, I expected better accommodations and accessibility for the price and location.

Clean room and spacious. They will gouge you on parking. Check out is 10 am so pretty early. Asked for late check out and they charged $150 to stay until 1 pm but didn’t tell us the key cards stop working at 12. My kids got locked out of the room and I couldn’t get back into the hotel until someone let me in. That was frustrating. Right at 12 pm we had housekeeping walk in on us. Have to say that really made me angry after spending close to $600 for one night! There are a couple of places nearby to eat which you want to stay close to because it’s not the best area crime wise. If you’re a light sleeper traffic and people peeling out all night will keep you awake. I think people also live there so it’s not just a hotel. They seem annoyed with hotel guests and I can’t say I blame them.

Positives; Staff was friendly and accommodating, valet and parking very easy, suite was fantastic with a beautiful kitchen, nice living area and bathrooms were spacious and clean.

Negatives; common areas were pretty dirty, beds were extremely uncomfortable (felt like sleeping on a box spring), which was extremely disappointing. TV’s had intermittent connectivity and only Netflix available…no other streaming options. These issues are so impactful to the overall comfort of a room…and so easy to correct and then this would be one of our top places to stay in DTLA.

Upon my check-in, I entered the room to a dirty sink with backed up food in it, roaches in the bottom of the cabinets under the sink and bathroom outlet wasn’t working. I let staff know about the room and was told someone would come up to clean it and fix outlet and no one ever came. When I notified them that no one ever came to the room and more roaches were seen they moved me to another room. I paid for a bigger room with a better view to be moved to a smaller room with ok View .I was told that they will returned the resort fees due to the inconvenience.

Stayed at South Olive in LA and overall it was a nice stay peaceful and nobody was constantly bothering you, which I appreciated. But I did have to pay an extra fee, and the parking situation was honestly frustrating. They charge $65 for parking, while right next door it’s only $10 and you get in-and-out access… so that didn’t make sense to me. Also, the valet guy outside definitely had an attitude. He seemed to treat people differently depending on how they looked, like he wouldn’t even talk to some people but had plenty to say when he felt like it. That part was off putting. Nice stay overall, but those little things definitely stood out.

Although I do not have a fancy car, I should still have been treated with the same respect and courtesy as the owner of the Lamborghini.

My boyfriend and I absolutely LOVEDDDD the hotel. We did not even have time to visit floor 4 with amenities because we were so busy, but we did go down and take a peek before we left. Everything was wonderful for us, although our room was not ready at 4 pm, we were accommodated appropriately due to our extra hour wait time. We will be back!!! Front desk staff was also nice and welcoming. We did park using the self park due to all of the negative reviews on street parking. We wanted to park at the hotel to feel more secure, and LEVEL did not disappoint. We knew we were going to be in & out throughout our trip, so paying the lot across the street $10 each time was not worth it, honestly. I can say that during our late-night outings (around 2 am), the parking attendants and front desk staff were wildly alert, and they had the garage closed. This gave me confidence that they were ensuring cars inside the garage remained safe and no one without access could enter. The room was very spacious and clean throughout.
