Location is close to a metro, which is great if you don't have a car. If you do have a car, it's a bit of a hassle to find parking and usually have to park a couple blocks away. Little Tokyo is a very cute area, but beware of skid row where lots of homeless people habitats.

Cleanliness- The manager cleans the bathrooms pretty much every day. The kitchen can get a little messy since you are sharing with everyone in the building, but for the most part people clean after themselves. Be sure to bring cups, plates and utensils since these supplies are limited. The stove was broken for a week and the sinks leak.

The owner of the place referred me to contact the manager who left me a key in the lock box. I had trouble opening it, but was fortunate that someone who lived in the building could help. The manager seems very friendly, but is reluctant to help for small favours since he says it's not really part of his job description.
