Stay away unless you like bugs and filth! Checked in and found gross stains in tub and toilet in room. Complained and was given new room and found mold in bathroom but. settled in because we needed sleep. Next day received no cleaning or amenity replacement and was told service was only in morning so requested new towels and was given towels that had stains. Next day slept-in and requested no cleaning but new towels and had to argue with maid who didn’t want to provide new towels since we had not yet used towels from previous day yet and finally received new towels when explained we were about to shower and wanted new towels for next morning. Went out and, upon returning, found large roach inside room and evidence of other previously killed roach inside room as well as large roach outside room as well as other creepy-crawlers inside room. Feeling uncomfortable staying and it being last night, demanded refund and booked different motel but was told attendant could not provide refund but only a request for manager to call us. Still waiting for that call. Complained on Vagabond corporate website but still no response.

After staying in multiple cheap motels across LA, I'm so glad I discovered this hidden gem, Vagabond Inn. I felt very safe in the area (much more so than other motels for a similar cost) and had many walking-distance markets, shops, and restaurants that sustained me for my week long stay! Friendly and helpful staff & maintenance crew - there was some construction in neighboring rooms so I got a 9am wake-up call every day, but not a big deal since I didn't need to sleep in.

Overall stay was good. Just one night there was a bit of noise with above tenant. The rest of the nights were good. I will say it is a great location for food service places.
