Freehand Los Angeles

Nice room. Very clean. Service from housekeeping was a little slow but effective. The hotel location is on the corner of a great part of town and a not-so-great part of town. I had a corner suite which provided the best of both worlds. If you are a people watcher, the entertainment from your window is amazing! Just be careful which way you walk when leaving the hotel.

For a mixed use accommodation (dorms and hotel rooms), it's a nice location. I brought a large group of pupils from London and there were few issues reported. Checking in was a breeze and the lobby area made a great venue for meeting up. The hotel was busy but we encountered no problems, except for waiting for the lift. I was given a corner room on the 9th floor and it wasn't amazing (quite tired) but far better than expected. The mattress wasn't comfortable and the noise from the busy street at night was loud. However, the shower was so good - high pressure and spacious - and the linen was soft and plentiful. There was a small safe in the room.

We were upgraded from our reservation at the Wyndham Hotel LA to the Freehand Hotel. I was hesitant at first and worried that there are roaches inside. We already had dinner reservations for the restaurant inside but wanted to explore LA. I am SO glad I took the upgrade as this hotel is MUCH MUCH nicer than the Wyndham Hotel. Our welcome to the city was such a nice surprise with excellent service. We were a family of 6 and had plenty of room in the 2 bedroom room. We only stayed one night so our experience was amazing. I could, however, see feeling disappointed by the toilets. It’s a bit dirty. The pool is very nice but was pretty warm when we used it. Loved the stocked fridge with drinks and the morning breakfast basket (though we didn’t really eat it). Dinner and breakfast was a dream. The food, views, service…it was perfect.

Amazing views from my hotel room and the pool was so relaxing. Keep in mind the pool is only 3ft deep but the water was nice. Don’t recommend the drinks from the bar. They are $24 each and it didn’t taste good. So much stuff to do nearby though. Can’t wait to visit again.

It is a hybrid property, which encompasses both shared and private rooms. They DO have quality control standards. The rooms tend to be somewhat irregularly laid out, not having great widow space as some of the pictures would suggest. The furnishings are starting to show their age and will soon require a renovation.The location is in the heart of the city and has easy access to just about anywhere you want to do. If they raised the bar to the level of their sister-company GENERATOR, it would be AWESOME!!! Otherwise, it does look like the UK outfit is trying to milk as much money as they can, without putting a dime into it.
