Overall we enjoyed our stay. The loft is furnished with taste and originality, located in a former bank on 7th floor. Noisy and a bit scary neighborhood - ideal, if you want to get the feel of the city. (We wanted.) Close to the metro on 7th street, if you get tired of walking around downtown and want to escape to Santa Monica or Pasadena. Inside the loft you will be welcomed with a bottle of wine and chocolates and a rose. The host is super nice but his cleaning lady doesn't do a good job (the kitchen left MUCH to be desired, and there was only ONE wine glass!).
