While the hotel itself is great and deserves 5 Stars, the area it is located in is a rough part of DTLA. Nothing the hotel can do about that, and actually takes that aspect of the stay “head on”, by providing in room sound machines and earplugs. Having the coffee shoppe on the main floor is great! The Orpheum and United Theaters are super conveniently close, and Zinque, a small restaurant / lounge located in the buildings main floor was outstanding! The street noise and some bikers who frequent the area are my only cause for concern.
