kodō hotel

Great value. Central to everything. It’s not for everyone so make sure you do your research.

Easy check-in. Just make sure you go through the process 24 hours before you check-in. No reception, everything is digital including the key which I really like. Parking is in the back of building.

Cons It depends on where your room is (it’s my second time staying here) but the front rooms can get really loud at night, e.g. sirens.

The communication was amazing !

Very special place in DTLA. Lots of great restaurants and coffee spots nearby and in the hotel itself. Love the staff. I really liked my king room with the rain shower. I am an LA local and would do a staycation here.

So ein spezielles Zimmer haben wir noch nie gesehen! War einfach traumhaft!

The room in the hotel is absolutely beautiful concierge and hotel lobby was left to be desired

Hotel concept is beautiful. The rooms are super modern and clean and couldn’t ask for more there.

Cons There’s not an actual concierge or hotel guest check-in. It’s all done by your phone, which makes it really difficult to have a great check-in process. I literally had to wait till exactly 4 PM to get a text message that my key was ready to download on my phone, which did not feel like the greatest experience

Nice spacious room.

Cons -Noisy, quite noisy! street noise also very noisy room ventilation system, they did offer us another room but it was the same -Open bath + slippery -No closet space although big space -Smelly corridor/entrance -Cafe was closed, no notice (not even on their own platforms) -Poor lighting, dark inside, also not easy to turn on/off -Noisy sliding doors -No widow view in our room
