Have stayed in several of Alex's places in LA, love them all! They are always clean & beautifully decorated, just like the pictures show. This might be my favorite of all. It's huge & just a beautiful place to stay downtown, such a great location. The neighborhood is very colorful, don't let it throw you! I lived in LA for 10 years & worked in the area, lots of "interesting" people in this area but they are harmless, never feel unsafe, especially once you're inside building.
