we loved our stay at Javier’s but if your plans are to stay close to downtown LA area then you may want to look somewhere closer. with traffic during the week getting to DT LA where all the main attractions were took about 40-50 minutes which we didn’t realize prior to booking. without traffic is usually around 20-25. the interior of the place is lovely and the rain fall shower was the best part. I personally am a big fan of being clean so cleanliness is important to me. For the most part the place was clean but we did find ourselves cleaning and sanitizing the apartment again along with rewashing the sheets so just keep an eye out and be aware. Also keep in mind it’s a small complex and the neighbors are right next door and across so you can continuously hear noises throughout the day and night. There is only one parking spot and it’s set up very tightly so just be careful when you’re parking. Overall this is a good spot, Javier is a great host but just keep these things in mind prior to booking.
