The pictures definitely don't do this place justice! We loved the big open spaces that was great for what we needed! The space is nicely updated but I loved that it does feel like you are getting to stay in a space that still feels like old LA. We had chilly weather so we didn't get to spend much time in the outdoor space. If it was warmer, I'm sure we would have utilized this. Overall, I would definitely stay here again. Perfect for large families!
