Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Property is tucked inside, off main streets. super low-key. It is part of condo building on its own street, was surprisingly quiet in the middle of Hollywood. A block in either direction has food/ shopping/ studios. Main doors were left open to let light and fresh spring air. Seemed safe, as no strange or homeless people seemed to walk on Cosmo street, clean street, security for buildings across street usually comes out. Warning; it is an open loft, hostel. Not hostel w/ rooms and beds. Like a studio apartment w/ a few neatly arranged beds surrounding a kitchen table. Everyone was super quiet, kept to themselves. But this place is definitely vibes for the aspiring person looking into living in LA. Sidenote: management could up training on receiving guest and extra care on general cleanliness. but overall not disgusting or dirty feeling, just felt lived in w guest coming in and out. Pod Bed was comfortable, firm, clean, but kept hitting head on ceiling and the clothes rack kinda useful but also dangerous. Cool they had urinal, but also not sure why a cabinet was in way. Anyways. Freehand has a great lobby to hang and do work and go back to bed. But Podshare Hollywood room is more livable. Wanted to try Podshare Venice to get the vibes of LA, but next time.

Not bad
Not a bad stay if you are used to communal living. There is no privacy at all, and might be long waits for the bathroom at night. Would not recommend for solo female travelers, otherwise an okay accommodation if you are prepared for the experience! Place is clean and liveable, everyone is fairly considerate and keeps the volume down after hours.
