My husband and I had a cozy stay here while in LA. It's not close to any metro stops, but is in a central area that is not too far of an Uber ride away. Luckily there is a Starbucks and a 711 close by which made going for a short walk convenient. However there didn't seem to be too many other restaurant options in walking distance. I felt very safe in the neighborhood and would recommend this as a solid stay. Also a great shower and water pressure!
