If you absolutely need to stay here and don't have children with you, then stay here. I was told by entertainment.com that this was a decent area. When I showed up, it looked like a real dive and it seemed to have people living in here full time (and they looked pretty shady). The front parking lot is accessible, while the back parking lot is blocked by an automatic gate which will open by your room card (why in the world do you need a key to the parking lot if it is a "good area"?) To sum up my review I will write verbatim the photo I took of the sign posted by the LAPD on the building in the back parking lot: <<NO Drugs, Drug Dealers, Trespassing, Weapons, Alcoholic Beverages: The Los Angeles Police Department Makes Regular and Frequent Patrols on these Premises>> The message is repeated in Spanish right below the English on this sign. Why would the LAPD need to make frequent and regular patrols of the premises when the only people who have access to this particular area are guests of the hotel with their room card? Like I said, there are full time residents residing in this place that look pretty shady, so I see a direct correlation between this sign and the full time guests.
