Where to Stay in L.A.

Whenever I'm in L.A. I'm usually situated far from the city, closer to the beach towns along the coast.  But if ever I'd like to be closer downtown I wouldn't mind budget beach living at The Rose Hotel in Venice Beach.  It has the rustic roughness I adore, but with a Mid-century twist.

"We never set out to create a perfect hotel;  our walls are thin, and the building is wonky…  But it's not like any other hotel.  And we like it just like it is." says creators Glen Luchford & Doug Bruce.
