11 Best Affordable Hotels in Los Angeles for Under $300 a Night | Condé Nast Traveler

"Design is taken to another level at this affordable hostel-style hotel, where the collaboration with Roman & Williams shows in the soaring-ceilinged 1930s tiled bar filled with Craftsman-inspired furniture and a restaurant whose floor is lined with owl mosaics, a nod to the building’s past life as the Owl Drug Store. I love that there’s also an outpost of the James Beard Award–nominated Broken Shaker bar and that even the bunk-bed rooms, which finally reveal you’re in a hostel, are so well designed and comfortable they outshine plenty of private suites I’ve stayed in elsewhere." - Paris Wilson
