My friend Irene really enjoyed Alexander's place. She had stayed at several other places near Hollywood Blvd. This location and apartment was by far the best value for the money. It was clean and everything worked and was in order. Irene did not have a car, it was good for uber and walking and public transport. Good to walk to grocery stores, bars and restaurants. You share the apartment with 2 roommates. She made some good friends. It was not an issue. Neighborhood was safe. You can get a good discount if you book for a month, but you need to pay for month up front.
