We had a great stay in LA at this Airbnb. We were a bit weary given the previous reviews about the location. I will admit, the location is a bit urban, but you are staying in Downtown LA and I would find it hard to find any other location that does not have homeless people lingering about. Overall, we generally felt safe staying here and walking around, especially during the day. If you are used to big cities, its nothing you havent seen before.
The Airbnb and price were well worth it! The room was massive and it did feel like we were at home. Everything was as described and we had everything needed for our stay.
Checkin was a breeze. We did have to complete annoying paperwork outside of the Airbnb platform, but it was pretty easy to do and then received our checkin instructions which were very clear on how to find the building and any needed door codes.
The big con to this place is parking! Be ready to pay $15-$20 for garages in the area.
