We are two young italian sisters and we decided to come back to LA for the second time on june 2008, we were looking for a hotel that was in the centre but not too expensive and we found the Kawada. It is in downtown, just few steps from the subway, so is well linked with hollywood, universal studios, and... more

My experience at the Kawada Hotel in Los Angeles was okay but not all that great. The staff were courteous, and the rooms were in good shape. However, if you are looking to stay there for business, I must caution that the windows are not well insulated for sound, so if you're a light sleeper, chances are that you might... more

we stayed at Kawada for one week on our honeymoon and it wasnt too bad. Positives were a vending machine on one of the levels, free internet access twice a day for 10 mins, staff were mostly nice to us, willing to help out with booking for tours etc which was cool, clean rooms, cleans sheets, a really big bathroom... more

We stayed the hotel for one day. in that hotel, only the manager and one room boy is there. no one is there for if u want any help..if u touch anything in the room, it'll fell off.....better dont touch anything..... .we called the manager to tell that water is coming not in the room... they told us they'll change... more

We lasted one night in the Kawada. We arrived in the evening were told there was no food within the Hotel. We were told to walk down 2nd Street to find some. There was nothing open and a police car stopped to tell us it wasnt safe to walk around at night in the area, My experience was it wasnt... more

We stayed in the Kawada for 6 nights and firstly I would like to say that the staff at the Kawada were very nice and friendly, they helped us to plan our stay in LA. The room smelt very smokey every time we entered our room although the room was cleaned and bedding changed every day. The location was not... more

hmmmmmm, a bit of a strange one, staying in downtown is not really helpful - staying near hollywood boulevard would have been better. Had to pay $15 per day extra for Parking - so would have preffered to use that money for a better location, and you have to use the valet. Staff a bit distant, but would help if... more

The staff are friendly if you need help don't be afraid to ask. the hotel is find if you just want a bed to sleep on at night as the room is basic but clean. you have to requst for your bed sheets to be changed as if you don't they wont but your towels that you leave on the... more

this was an awful, 80's hotel in the worst location. although the room was clean enough, it was absolutely tiny. could have put up with this if it wasnt for the, frankly frightening area it was in. we had booked up for 9 nights (and paid) but only managed 4 nights before cutting out losses and paying for a different... more
