In the lobby, several references to the motorcycle culture depicted in 1969 film Easy Rider can be spotted in custom furniture and a bike parked in the lobby lounge. An expansive carpet with a snake graphic backgrounds the various leather sofas, and armchairs with striped textured upholstery. Similar striations that mimic desert rock formations can be found in the rammed-earth walls that divide and define spaces, including Bar Moxy that’s influenced by roadside gas stations. Here, metal-mesh liquor cabinets and mottled stone counters are contrasted by berry-hued bar stools enliven the space.

The hotel includes studio spaces above the lobby, decorated with neon lights and plush furniture. Guest bedrooms feature ribbed olive-green leather headboards flanked by nightstands suspended from the wooden backboards, along with exposed concrete and tiled surfaces. The raw, edgy materiality reflects the grit of the neighborhood, providing a minimal yet comfortable setting that offers a cultural sampling of LA before guests have even left the front door.
