A lovely quaint atmosphere, very close to the action on Hollywood Boulevard, and close to the Metro rail system.

The hostel was in a great position so close to Hollywood Blvd. The staff were very helpful when we had questions or needed information. The only problem we had during our stay was the noise during the early hours of the morning when some of the other occupants were partying.

Very charming Hostel in a great location. Loved the Runyon Canyon right down the street. Best views of LA. This hostel is very quiet and was just what I needed.

Having not stayed in hostels before i didnt know what to expect. I was travelling with 4 other guys and were only staying 2 nights, We found the hostel adequate for what we wanted as we were just passing through LA. It appeared a bit tired and run down but is in a fantastic location for touring LA and the price was good as we just wanted a place to get our heads down.

Beautiful, 'vintage style' house, really is only a 2 minute walk from the buzz of Hollywood Boulevard, cheap to egt to from the airport as well. Helpful staff, I loved this place!

Very clean, quiet hostel in a good location. Only complaint: what´s with the 10:00 am check out time??? The guy at the front desk told us they were flexible with the check out date, but then the next morning we got woken up by a loud knock on the door and were kicked out 15 minutes later.

The best thing about this Hostel is its position literally just a couple of minutes walk to Hollywood Bvd. Staff very pleasant and helpful. A little pricey though but it was worth it for the convenience.

We booked a two-night stay at The Orange Drive Manor Hostel after changing our plans last minute. For a private room with a double-bed, this hostel had a very affordable rate of $68 per night. The room we got was sparse but spacious, and with an automatic lock on the door everything felt very safe. The hostel itself is huge, clean, and quiet.

No free Wi-fi!!! You had to pay $5 for the duration of your stay (expensive)! The free breakfast is poor - just oatmeal, and not even the microwave-able kind! The staff was not there at the counter to let us in when we arrived. When they are there, they are usually friendly. They charge security deposit of $50 in cash for the keys. When you enter the room, there's a long list of rules on the back of the door. Check-out seems too early at 10am (5$ for later check-outs). Showers spray weirdly.

The whole place was not very bright, a little gloomy, kitchen too small, TV room too small. no lockers in the room, no free internet. The beds were very noisy, kept me awake. Close to Hollywood Blvd, good location, close to metro (good), felt pretty safe and it was pretty clean.

The orange manor drive hostel is in a great location for you to visit the main part of Hollywood blvd. Its moments away from the Kodak theatre. Its also easy to get to Universal city and Universal studios via the metro which is about 5 mins walk away. There is a supermarket and post office near by. Staff were friendly and i think most of the staff lived at the hostel themselves. Showers and bathrooms were clean. We stayed in a private double which was spacious and had a heater which was great.

Great place to stay RIGHT in Hollywood. Parking lot in the back if you have a car. We had a private room. Cannot get a cheaper room in this area for sure! Nice helpful staff. In a quiet street with trees. Really liked it!

Great old building in a superb location. Just round the corner from the heart of Hollywood, yet surprisingly quiet. Pleasant staff, recommended.

The place is very well located (close to Hollywood Blvd and Kodak Theater) and has a lot of character. The guy that help me during check in was very nice, so was the Polish girl working there. But first they put me in a wrong room, with unclean bathroom. After complaining I was transfered me to the room I booked, but that had VERY unclean bathroom (hair/nose bugs) and the room was very noisy. I could hear the other rooms, the bathroom outside my room, people upstairs. I left next morning.

Very convenient location, 3-5mins walk to Hollywood walk of fame and Chinese theater - free wireless even in rooms not just in common areas - good value for money - only issue is very small bathroom/ toilets in private rooms, but if its for few days you'll survive - if you're staying in LA stay in Hollywood because all tours starts in this area and all attractions are nearby as well, there's absolutely nothing to do in main Los Angles city and its just so boring in that part of LA.

The place was ok for the time I stayed there. I have been to more charming places on my travels. However the location is very good. You are just around the corner of the Kodak Theatre. This also means the metro and buses. The room was nice enough. The staff seemed helpful. However I also had the feeling that they won't go out of there way to help you.

Orange drive hostel is located on a quiet residential street in the middle of all the action! Orange drive is a great place for a calm sleep & rest, sheltering you from the noise of the busy streets just a few minutes walk from the hostel.
This 1920's 'rustic mansion' has a very unique and special history. In the 40's, 50's and 60's it was the hotel and home to many classic movie stars and celebrities like Marilyn Monroe, Greg Cooper and many more. Clark Gable lived down the street and was a frequent visitor along with Rita Hayworth. We have kept up the charm of its history while catering to the budget traveller.
