You arrive at a nondescript black door with a green light... You knock. The door slowly swings open and you're invited in... Welcome to Stash House Your group has been invited to a seemingly-normal Koreatown apartment owned by a local entrepreneur to discuss a business opportunity. Shortly after arriving, you discover the apartment belongs to Ray Jones, notorious Los Angeles drug kingpin, and that Ray has a test in store for you: find all the drugs hidden in the space and flush them before the cops arrive or face the consequences. Stash House is a ninety-minute escape experience that explores the dark underbelly of crime in Los Angeles. Does your crew have what it takes to pass the test?

Stash House is one of my favorite rooms. It is really creative and quite different than any other escape room I’ve ever experienced. The creators took great care in the details, which sets apart this room from others. It’s unlike any other escape room I’ve done. 10/10 must do!

There was so many puzzles! Loved that it wasn’t linear so different people could work on different puzzles

This is definitely a puzzlers room: so much to do, and so many solid puzzles. We had a great time as a group of 6 enthusiasts. The hype is strong, and for good reason.

Best game I’ve done in LA (so far)! Warning: if you get to meet Don, bring a change of clothes. I was so turned on I got dehydrated
Clever and well thought out

This was such an amazing and unique room! We were a group of four, and it was pretty challenging, but we got out with 80 seconds to spare! Soren was a great GM, and the way that you get clues is really immersive and cool. The puzzles were so good, and afterwards the four of us couldn’t stop talking about how great this room is. Might be our new favorite room! Do this one!

Solid room all around! Puzzles that were just challenging enough even for experienced players. And plenty to do for everyone.

Expected a bit more given the reviews, but it was a solid room throughout. Did this with a group of 6, most of them being new to escape rooms. If you're an escape enthusiast, you'll probably like the variety and difficulty of the puzzles - it's non-linear and having more bodies is helpful to spread out. Very cool clue system. The set dressing and experience could be a bit more immersive, but a lot of creative uses of space.
Yes
Certain aspects of the experience felt novel and creative.

Really nice difficulty and overall loved the puzzles.
A nice mixture of both

Escaped with 6, most of them not having done any rooms before. There's a lot of puzzles so it's helpful to spread out. You could probably do it with 4 experts.
Spooky
Almost not scary at all.

Mobility is important. Some use of color.

Didn't see a sign, no lobby either. I would trust Google maps and ring up the door.

This was a great room. The setup is simple but the way the room unfolds as you play it was surprising and entertaining. Several of the puzzle chains were among my favorites that I have done in a long time. The subject matter is, obviously, mature so don’t bring the kiddos but as long as you are OK with profuse drug references and associated PG-13 rated concepts you will be fine. I mean, not if you fail the room, then you’ll be busted by the cops and that will definitely harsh your mellow. But otherwise fine. Highly recommended.

We played with 4 experienced folks and finished in just under an hour, but 4-6 is the right number. There are multiple long puzzle chains and I don’t think it would be easy to finish in time if you took the entire room linearly. You will need to work on things in parallel.

Drugs, gangs, more drugs, and also drugs. Did I mention the drugs?

Part of the game is on a second story. Part of the game requires someone to crawl and solve puzzles in an enclosed space. One puzzle relies on color matching. One puzzle relies on audio clues.
No
Allow some extra time to find the door. It is a stash house, after all.

This game, from the jump is creative, unique and has so much lore built in. It's clear that the creators both love LA culture AND worked to create immersive and unique puzzles with a lot of variety. It is a true non-linear room with quite a bit to do. Our group of 7 had plenty to do and I probably would recommend less than 4 just for the quality of gameplay. Puzzles are varied in style and execution and the space is both unassuming and has good moments that move the experience forward.
Because this is the only "room" from this group, it gets to be a full experience of exploring Ray's apartment. The game lets you pry and be invasive while building the experience of the room as you go. The puzzles are non-linear, creative, and super well themed.
The vibe screams LA Hip Hop and Crime culture and the props/puzzles express that. The elements are clearly carefully planned and curated and contribute to the immersiveness of the experience.
Pham was great- enthusiastic, encouraging and the right amount of theatrical to get us into the story.
