Claudius' place was a charm. While I didn't have the opportunity to meet Claudius personally, I did meet Amanda, who was a perfectly gracious hostess. The place was very clean, surprisingly quiet, and in a great downtown location. Both Claudius and Amanda went the extra mile to make my accommodations ccomfortable and pleasant. The decor and ammenities (free wifi, and great espresso coffee to name a few) were great.I will definitely stay there on my next trip to LA. Thanks!
