Vagabond Inn Executive Hotel - Page 1

Granted...your in one of the biggest cities in the world. Lot's going on. That being said, my stay 6-19-08 was good in that the rooms were freshly painted and the beds appeared to be new, YEAH!. The bad: many of the personal insects who shared my room and did not pay, really enjoyed themselves. Moving on, and in addition, many of the "guests, who also acted like insects" seemed to enjoy the Vagabond Inn Executive (Los Angeles), I.E. loud parties, shouting, leaving trash all over the parking lot and totally having a disregard for all the other poor souls who paid $100.00 plus, per day/night. The second to the last memorable moment was when I was returning from dinner. Witnessed an encounter involving two people, MaybeThey may have been bugs....it was dark!, fornicating in the Vagabond Inn Executive's pint sized pool! The cream at the top was being notified...when after a 110 degree day (Sat. 6-21-08) that there were no bath towels, Oh, let me clarify, I mean no "clean towels" to dry off after a shower. Fully understood, equipment breaks down (There's a public laudromat 200 feet away, I used it 3X) My response from the deskman was...."were having problems"!!! I then began to wonder if the management needed the already cleaned bath towels to clean the pool. My recommendation to the masses who are looking to secure accomadations in this area go as this: Good choice: You wear your pants halfway off your rump, your car is old, yet, has lot's of "bling bling" and of course you've packed a bathing suit, albeit you'll only need it for a short time! Bad choice: you need to feel secure away from your personal dwelling, not having to peel your fellow roommates dinner's remnants off your flip flops and of course....drying your showered boby with toilet paper. I will never again lose my money here. I wouldn't even recommend to myfew enenmies

The location was close to the attractions I wanted to visit. The hotel is a good value, but the rooms are somewhat small. The hotel was clean but I had problems with lights being out and a toilet seat was broken. The front desk staff was friendly, but a bit unknowledgeable about local attractions.

If you want to sleep in a place that has used condoms on the floor and blood on the shower curtain, then this place is for you!

I've stayed in plenty of cheap hotels before, but I have to honestly say that this was the icing on the cake. And no, I am not lying about the used condom in the corner, or the blood smears on both sides of the shower curtain. This place was absolutely disgusting!

Also, there is no dead bolt lock on the door, so forget about safety! As a young female being in Hollywood, alone at night is bad enough, not to mention not having a secure lock on the door.

There were plenty of cigarette burns on top of the TV, desk, and bathroom counter. The carpet was absolutely filthy, with miscellaneous stains everywhere. I can't believe that this place has not been shut down by the health department!

We have visited family in this area for 10 years, but we had always stayed at another motel because of the exterior appearance of the Vagabond.

Recently, we had noticed that the exterior appearance had changed and we decided to check it out. We were pleasantly surprise with the upgrades in the room. Our room had been newly painted and the dressing room has a new corian counter top. The room was clean and the price was right!

The hotel was not in a safe neighborhood and the bed was uncomfortable. I would not recommend staying here due to the nature of the neighborhood. It touts itself as a business establishment but there were no amenities for the businessperson.
