Pros:

Este un hotel decent raportat la preturile care sunt în Los Angeles
În cazul în care agreați varianta de hotel cu baie comuna.
Eu l am rezervat în lipsa de alte variante în zona metroului, dar nu as mai sta acolo.
Este curat, chiar foarte curat pt un hotel de 2 stele.
Faptul ca este așezat la 5 min de statia de metrou Little Tokyo care asigura conexiunea cu toate zonele din Los Angeles este un plus.
Zona în care este așezat este cam dubioasa, în sensul ca sunt destui oameni care dorm pe străzi, dar asta este frecvent în Los Angeles, mai ales dacă folosiți transportul în comun, dar nu pot zice ca I neapărat periculoasa zona.

Cons:

Doar ce am spus mai sus.

Easy Going Spot is a Winner
Pros:

Clean room with effective air conditioning(!) was quite comfortable. Easy check in and building access. Shared bathrooms were big, clean and close to our room. Nice staff! After check out I thought I left my wallet behind and they kindly looked for it while I was on the phone with them. (I found it later in a packed bag.)

Cons:

We requested a specific room and I thought the request had been confirmed online, so was surprised to be placed elsewhere. Not a big deal, really; the room we were given was fine.

Trevel alone to LA Dodgers
Pros:

They were happy to store my luggage after check-out without any fuss. I wasn't able to pick it up until after 8 PM, but the staff member, Masuma, went above and beyond by even letting me use the shower—a truly amazing gesture. I’ve stayed here in May, July, and August, and the experience has been absolutely flawless.

Cons:

Nothing in particular.

it's enough if you will stay all the day outside, no needed to have a bathroom inside the room.
Pros:

I enjoy the location near to union station and to the downtown. They kept my luggage after the checkout. And the room has AC

Cons:

well, there's no elevator, and my room was at the thrid floor, so going up and last day down with my full bags was a little complicated. I got a fee due to topper was stained with makeup.
