Map & Owner's Profile
Charming Loft in Heart of Historic Los Angeles
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Los Angeles
Downtown Los Angeles is simply the most exciting, energetic, dynamic area of the city where all of the elements of the city come together in a unique mix. There are so many great restaurants, bars, museums, and events within walking distance. The people are also incredibly friendly and invested in continually improving the neighborhood; and let's not forget the treasure of early 20th century architecture, including the gorgeous Broadway theaters.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Being able to walk to whatever you need-within traffic-choked Los Angeles, this is a unique advantage of this neighborhood. I also love taking the subway to Hollywood or Pasadena without having to fight traffic or look for parking.
Best Breakfast and Lunch place downtown. Tell Kristen and Monica that Tim sent you. Try the bacon doughnut!

Fantastic dowtown loft

We had a wonderful four night stay in this beautiful loft. The location and conveniences couldn't have been better! The loft was VERY clean and was our comfy home. It was nice having a washer, dryer and computer available for us. One of our favorite aspects of this rental was going to the roof - day or night! We couldn't do a review without mentioning how helpful the doormen were and parking was a breeze! And free. Thank you Tim. We would rent this again in a heartbeat if we ever need to be in LA..

This loft was ideal for my 9 days on campus at the nearby Chicago School of Professional Psychology (5 blocks away). It is clean, spacious, and offers an ideal respite between classes or work, and the owner and building staff were amazingly helpful. The neighborhood is safe, vibrant and fun...Lots to do! Don't miss the breakfast sandwiches at LA Cafe, Soi7 Thai, or the pastries at Louie a few blocks away.

The loft is very beautiful, bigger than it looks on the pictures with really nice amenities (the oven, the fridge & the couch are awesome). The location is perfect, especially when you do not have a car like us. You can easily catch a bus to go everywhere, if you plan a little before. The owner was very helpful giving us tips for transport and everything. We really envoyed our stay in this loft, quiet & secure.

Loft in LA Historic Core
Guest: Anonymous

Review Submitted: 11/12/11
I enjoyed my stay thoroughly. I was in Los Angeles for work and then my daughter joined me for a day to celebrate her birthday. I'm used to an urban setting, so the location was wonderful and the loft was perfect for my needs. The bed was incredibly comfortable and I got a great night's sleep (which is saying quite a lot). I would definitely return on my next trip to LA.

This loft is full of character and very comfortable. The location is superb. We loved walking round the historic core area and found great places to eat. You can walk to lots of interesting sights too. The owner was very helpful, I would recommend this over a hotel any day.

Perfect accomodations for those who want to be downtown. Plenty of room, lovely modern furnishings, fully equiped work station, kitchen, and the most comfortable mattress and pillows we have ever slept on! Super nice doormen in the lobby as well! Tim was awesome and leaves the best instructions and local area tips!

Review Submitted: 05/28/11
In LA for a week of business meetings and stayed in Tim's loft in the heart of historic downtown LA. The location is excellent because it has easy access all the major freeways (10, 101, 5), allowing you to get anywhere within the greater LA area within 30 minutes. The loft is well maintained, clean and every amenity that you can think of is provided. For those who do not have a car, public transport is within walking distance (Pershing Square station). Clifton's Cafeteria is just around the corner for those who want to eat at a place with a lot of history. I will definitely be coming back in the near future.
Recommended for:Sightseeing, adventure seekers.
