I stayed for about 15 days at the Sogo Hotel, and Alex and Jay were very nice in accommodating my extra days from what I booked so I wouldn't have to move rooms. The room is very clean (no funny smelling pillows), and I did not see any bugs. The shared bathroom and shower were cleaned everyday. The location was great as I was traveling to various neighborhoods in LA, including buses/trains to San Fernando, Torrence, and Pasadena. Even with a 48lb suit case, I was able to take the metro gold line, which is one block away.

The only reason that I would not rate it 5 stars is due to the noise. I am a very light sleeper, and I had to sleep early due to my work hours, but the walls are really thin and some of the guests were playing instruments in their rooms at night, which was a problem for me. Otherwise, the stay has been great.
