It's East Los Angeles, what do you expect? I've never stayed here. Knowing the history I didn't expect top notch neighborhood. People do your research., it’s definitely NOT the ghetto just mid/low class. The place is nice and clean, towels, extra blankets and a blow up queen mattress. Recently remodeled. I was able to meet Mr. Rooster that everyone speaks of on the reviews, he's a dark black handsome roost. He was our alarm clock at 4AM and 6AM. My sister who slept to the farthest right heard him. I stayed in the twin bedroom- farthest left and didn't hear him. We got back from Universal Studios at 2AM and the neighbors one street over was blasting music- couldn’t hear it inside the place. The host responded quickly due to a small parking error. Honestly, I enjoyed my stay it reminded me of my country. Lots of locations nearby to eat from, American to Latin Country. We shall visit next time! Thank you
