The apartment is exactly the way it looks in the photos. It's actually larger than I thought it would be. It's had a very nice full renovation with excellent choices in furniture. Very well put together. The bed was really comfortable and the rainfall shower was a nice addition. I only stayed for the night so I didn't get a chance to use all the amenities but I could have cooked a full meal, done some laundry, or just sat back and relaxed on the sofa since the apartment is set up for everything you would need. If you're looking to stay in the heart of downtown LA, this is a very nice apartment and a true 1 bedroom. The check in and out process was fairly easy and the communication with Alex, my host, was almost instant. If you know downtown LA, you probably know what to expect from the area, but if you're not from around here or have never been downtown, just as a heads up, there are quite a few homeless residents down on the streets on the surrounding blocks. I don't was to sound negative or unsympathetic, I would just want someone to highlight that aspect for me if I was reading reviews on a place I was considering to stay.
