Mary's place is perfect for someone who wants to be centrally located with excellent access to the Metro and also to the FlyAway shuttle for LAX. I have never been to LA without renting a car. This time I did without one and it was FINE.
Do know that the area is "hopping" especially at night. Mary's is a little "oasis" and as long as you run the A/C for "white noise" it works just fine. I slept very soundly every night, despite the party happening right next door.
Mary was very helpful and accommodating, letting me store my luggage on the day I was leaving, so that I didn't have to drag it around while waiting to leave for the airport.
I would definitely stay there again for all the conveniences.
Thanks Mary!!
