My girlfriend and I stayed at Rebekahs place for 5 nights while visiting LA.
The location is very central with the freeway 10 very close. The neighbourhood is a bit sketchy but not so that you feel uncomfortable. Could have been better, could have been a lot worse.
Rebekah is really sweet and a great host and was quick to answer questions.
The Zen Den is tiny but convenient and it provides what you need. It has air condition which is pretty valuable in June/July. The bathroom smells a bit wired, but not anything that bothers too much.
We had a great stay.
