The Cosmo street location we stayed at during our summer trip was amazing. The location was in the center of a great and vital part of downtown LA, within walking distance of restaurants, music stores, clubs, bars, nightlife and day life. It was very easy to find and made our stay relaxing. The space had a nice communal vibe, but we didn't feel like the location was too incredibly loud and uninviting. The noise level may have been high for some folks, but for us it was just fine. The air conditioning made the summer heat bearable; we happened to be there in one of the warmest weeks LA had seen in a while. Along with the place being very clean, it had everything we forgot to bring on our flight: towels, body wash, shampoo, kitchenware, all the goods. The Wi-Fi and tele made for good late night access. Mary was incrdibly helpful and very aware and considerate of her tenants. If we come back to LA, we would absolutely seek out another location from her. Deal with parking! You're in the downtown area. Ten for ten, great little place.
