The room was spacious and clean, with a relatively large amount of closet space. The security personnel were very nice, and one of them even showed me around the complex. It's within walking distance of a Ralphs, McDonalds, several upscale bars/restaurants, and a Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. I was also able to walk to a nice little area of Brentwood, where they had lots of coffee shops, restaurants, and a Whole Foods. A lot of the tenants there are international students apparently, so if you're a student and/or traveling abroad, you might especially enjoy this place. Overall, I had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend Barrington Plaza.
