I was not allowed to check-in and was told that I’ve been banned from the property. Why then did they accept my reservation and take my money? This hotel seems like a revolving door for people in crisis. It looks like maybe a human trafficking ring has set up shop there. I had previously asked to change rooms because of problems I was having with my bunk mates. One person didn’t like me talking while I was watching a movie. It was late, and I was having a health related episode. I needed reasonable accommodation but none was given. I have several health problems including brain damage that causes me to talk more than the average person. I have to learn how to live in society all over again. It’s painful especially when dealing with people in our society whom just don’t care about the disabled, elders, or veterans. I deal with a lot of racism and discrimination here in Los Angeles. I’m doing the best I can with the resources and tools I’ve been given. My bunk mates never seemed to leave the room. I’m a disabled veteran. According to them they set the rules for everyone. I think my bunk mates were gay male/female prostitutes and maybe drug dealers from other countries. I really don’t care but it speaks to their credibility and the fact that I was treated unfairly despite any complaints they had. They said they would give me a full refund for a one night stay. I’m still waiting for my last $50 security deposit and one night.

If by mistake your bag is in other locker which even though is not occupied the cleaner can break your locker and take your stuff without any prior notice or after communication. Moreover, they also took my water and threw it which i had not completed. The shower area is too small..Its really on the room mates how clean they keep it or dont keep it.
