Location was perfect! It’s right next to the train station which is one min walk away. You can literally walk to everything without using the subway. Everything is no more then a 20 mins walk. There is a local kebab place that’s really good on trip advisor if you’re dinning on the cheap. The apartment is pretty big and the beds were comfy. The ceilings were pretty thin but the noise dies down when it’s bed time.
I would say the neighborhood is a mix of downtown LA and the streets of China. Not exactly unsafe but there are a few unsavory characters around. Overall, it’s a great place to stay!
