Good value for a stay in downtown LA. You definitely need a car to go around and have fun in LA and Mary's place offers multiple parking options, free and otherwise. The A/C in the room can be a little disturbing for the light sleepers but it didn't really bother us much as we slept like babies very comfortably. The common areas were close by and bathrooms were pretty much available when we needed it. Mary was easy to stay in touch with and was prompt in her response whenever we needed her or had a question.
