Well, let's begin with the 2 only positive statments:
The location is great
Parking is ok - 15$
Then the negatives:
The corridors stank
The towels were dirty
The hotel is still in renovation
(not mentioned and no discount offered)
The employees were totally unhelpful,
Housekeepers soooooo noisy (don't expect any nap after a good nightlife and take note that the rooms are not soundproofed)
Housekeepers are thieves!!! (they even stole a jacket I left in the closet - BEWARE of your belongings).
No mini bar
The empty refrigerator took over the noise of the housekeepers during the night
No help with suitcases
Without asking and never been mentioned but they charge automatically 1$ for a charitable organization (which I strongly doubt)
Sound silly but no trash in the room...
Conclusion:
The Erwin doesn't worth it. It's an expensive hostel wearing a brand new tuxedo.
On the contrary, I would really recommend the Grafton on sunset where I stayed in my previous stay in LA. The amenities are way better for the equivalent price (pool, high speed internet, nice employees..) except the parking which is 28$.
I forgot my cellphone charger after checking out and they sent it to me back to Switzerland.
