Trains usually on time. Very clean, well lit, & safe. Only one double sided bench for sitting. No outlet for charging phones. We played a game where one person closed their eyes (seeker) an counted to ten while the other person hide behind one of four pillars. The seeker then had to choose where the hider was. Very fun for the few minutes waiting for our train.

Always like stopping by here always a great experience to learn different cultures as you as get to catch the Goldline and enjoy the many different varieties of view and stop by to explore Southern California as my boyfriend has introduced me to lots of places. Love him for always letting me explore with him but always being safe when we go out.

The unique design of this station is extremely noteworthy, and plus it's close to the eateries and streets of Chinatown, and the massive green expanses of grass and trees in LA State Historic Park! Only a quarter mile walk to any of these destinations from the station, one of the best stations in the LA Metro system in my opinion.

Nice views when you exit the train station and perfect place to take some pictures. It has some Stadium style bench seating as well as other locations to rest if you would like or possibly enjoy a light snack before you continue your journey through Chinatown.

  • Mark Woodson

I've loved this station since I first started using the Metro, but it's gotten even better with the condos and shops that mean you don't have to walk all the way down to College and then hike up the hill.

  • Shirley Hayes

As others have already said... the Chinatown Metro station is unique with the Chinese theme. Very colorful and you can sit and do a bit of people watching. It is very clean and safe.

  • Stanley Moy

Great location, convenient to lots of Chinatown businesses. I get off here and walk to work everyday. Love the architectures and designs. You can also see Downtown LA from here.

  • Aaron Romano

The station is well-designed and well-themed, but getting to the street level can be confusing and it can get pretty empty. Overall a nice and safe station though.

Los horarios a tiempo. El sitio. Limpio agradable. Y. Muchos sitios en conexion. Dejando a un lado el estres de conducir automovil. Por unas horas. V

Nice train station trying to represent Chinese culture through their architecture; unfortunately, the station needs a better maintenance schedule.

  • Saturday Onafa

anytime of day the view from this platform is so very rewarding, just wish there was more shaded seating for those long waits during the summers

  • Brandon Venable

Elevators are always gross and they hardly seem to work. I’ve missed trains because the button never called down the elevator. Shoddy machinery

  • R00s73r (r00s73r)

I always thought the design of this station was really dope. Usually pretty clean, except for the elevator which always smells like a urinal.

  • Rickey Kindred

There is a sign of homeless people sleeping and hanging out. The area never maintained, due to stained areas of the platform

  • Hamilton Carter

Great little station that makes it easy to get around. Two nice Chinese restaurants nearby: Yang Chow and Plum Tree.

  • Joe Krehbiel

Very cool, easy to access station with a wonderful view of Chinatown and the surrounding hills.

  • Manny N

It’s a elevated station so I’m not a big fan. But it does offer a nice view and looks clean

  • D MOORE

One of the nicer stations in the Metro Net worth a trip. Gold Line from Union Station

Cool place. Asian inspired architecture. Close to places to eat and do shopping.
