Reviews of Boutique HomeStay are highly mixed, with several guests praising the low price and occasional clean, cozy stays, while many others describe an uncomfortable, sometimes unsafe hostel style environment and frustrating operations.
Common complaints include dirty bathrooms, bad odors, and sporadic reports of pests, contrasted by a few notes that rooms or shared spaces were clean. Service feedback frequently cites unreachable or rude management, unclear instructions, overbooking that relocates guests, and difficult virtual check in; a few guests found staff helpful. Overall, expect a very basic hostel stay with significant trade offs.

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.

There was nothing essential or “boutique” about this place. There was no towels, no hand soap, no toilet paper, no air conditioning, NO NOTHING!! And the hostel manager was a jerk! Checking in with this guy was such a pain!! Always left me and a friend of mine on voicemail whenever we tried calling to check in. I hate how there was no front desk check in, it was all virtual, and the fact they didn’t offer free parking was just the worst. I’m constantly struggling to find a decent spot in the street without risking a parking ticket and I just did not wanna wait till the last day to leave this dump of a place. Me and a friend got out of there ASAP! Never staying in a hostel ever again.

The room is clean. One bathroom for ~18 people could be a little underwhelming. Not expecting too much though given the low price. However, this place could be "overbooked" and you will be guided to other places (with similar housing condition) that are ~10 minutes away by drive. This was frustrating and I wish it could be stated clearly on the website.

Okay I was really concerned about this place. The phone number listed didn't reach anybody. Nor did the chat. When I arrived, I had to go to another hostel they owned because they gave my bed away and they put me in a stinky room full of men. The next day they asked me if I wanted to move into a room with women. In the room I thought things were better because it was clean and it smelled good. Later that day, the same man that checked me in, put his hands in my pants without my consent and the woman in my room told me that he slapped her over some chicken that he cooked. It was just a real unsafe place for women and I'm not even sure if it's legal. They have people "working" there instead of paying the $24 a day and it's a hot mess.

I arrived a bit early and was told I couldn’t sit outside the property and needed to come back, which felt very condescending. Although I was only there for a few days, I encountered several issues: 1. No toiletries available 2. No plates or cups 3. No TV 4. No lounge area 5. Bathrooms were consistently dirty 6. Poor communication from management The dormitories are overcrowded, with six people sharing a space that has no room for luggage. The beds squeak, and some guests sleep during the day as if it were their permanent home. Overall, it didn’t feel like a welcoming hostel experience—there was no coffee, tea, or music, just a strange atmosphere with people watching you on the cameras, especially the tattooed white trans guy, who was particularly off-putting.

Terrible place to stay, full of weirdo’s and pot smoking idiots, pedos also.This place is literally a homeless shelter, disgusting with clogged toilets, dirty refrigerator and broken appliances. Can’t pay? You can always pitch in to over stay your welcome. Surprised that the city doesn’t fine the owner for allowing such disgusting unlivable conditions.

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.

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.

There was nothing essential or “boutique” about this place. There was no towels, no hand soap, no toilet paper, no air conditioning, NO NOTHING!! And the hostel manager was a jerk! Checking in with this guy was such a pain!! Always left me and a friend of mine on voicemail whenever we tried calling to check in. I hate how there was no front desk check in, it was all virtual, and the fact they didn’t offer free parking was just the worst. I’m constantly struggling to find a decent spot in the street without risking a parking ticket and I just did not wanna wait till the last day to leave this dump of a place. Me and a friend got out of there ASAP! Never staying in a hostel ever again.

The room is clean. One bathroom for ~18 people could be a little underwhelming. Not expecting too much though given the low price. However, this place could be "overbooked" and you will be guided to other places (with similar housing condition) that are ~10 minutes away by drive. This was frustrating and I wish it could be stated clearly on the website.

I arrived a bit early and was told I couldn’t sit outside the property and needed to come back, which felt very condescending. Although I was only there for a few days, I encountered several issues: 1. No toiletries available 2. No plates or cups 3. No TV 4. No lounge area 5. Bathrooms were consistently dirty 6. Poor communication from management The dormitories are overcrowded, with six people sharing a space that has no room for luggage. The beds squeak, and some guests sleep during the day as if it were their permanent home. Overall, it didn’t feel like a welcoming hostel experience—there was no coffee, tea, or music, just a strange atmosphere with people watching you on the cameras, especially the tattooed white trans guy, who was particularly off-putting.

I feel that for what it’s worth this place is rightfully what it should be. I have no complaints. I feel like if you are in transition or just trying to start your life over this is a great first step for anybody.

Terrible property. Listed as welcoming for children and then refused entry for my child. Still refusing a refund and having to dispute with the credit card company. Terrible neighborhood and awful response from property. Do not book.

I never stayed at the hotel/room. I was told that I would receive a full-refund because they told me it's a 1 bed, and the room they gave me is a shared room. This hotel was a scam and I will never book it again.

No bathroom light in room 6, for the men’s. Loose floor tile in front of sink in the men’s bathroom. Half ass cleaning job. No anonymity whatsoever. Staff talk to you any kind of way they one. No parking on site, that sucks. They will throw away ur food if it doesn’t have ur name on it. And there’s no pots or pans on site to cook with.
