Rakai Town Holidays from AU$1,435

I like staying at the LEEF hotel when I am in the area, it’s affordable and very clean however, parking here is not convenient. I went to a Universal Studios event and arrived back at the hotel around 12AM, I paid for onsite parking and the only parking spot available was a handicap. I called the hotel multiple times (since there is not an actual person in the lobby) and finally got a response back. I asked him if it was ok to park in the handicap spot because I paid for parking and there wasn’t any spaces. He gave me the ok but told me I would have to move it by 7AM or it was going to get towed. Don’t oversell your parking!

Beds were good altough the bed covers were stained everything else was good.

The staff are all friendly, accommodating and housekeeping takes pride in room cleanliness. Rooms tend to be small, the furnishings bare bones and aging. Non-urbanites might be put off by downtown LA, but the hotel is well situated - close to the Metro, courthouse, immigration, Angels Flight, Grand Central Market and more. Unfortunately, the rooms have thin walls and conversations from your neighbors can be easily heard. The rooms (especially lower floors) facing 2nd St. are subject to noise until late from the bar next door that has outdoor seating and then very early trash collection noise. Given all that, it's still one of the best deals if you have to stay in downtown LA.

The hotel looks good and is kept very clean, and our room was spacious.
