Great location and convenient if it were an adult trip. Little Tokyo is very close, full of restaurants and shopping stores. We had two seven year olds and there were a few homeless people outside (no, they did not bother us at all), but it was hard walking around with kids. If it was just adult trip, we would have ended our nights at Little Tokyo. It’s downtown, so you could hear sirens during the night. Didn’t visit the hotel garden, but it looked really nice from our window, 6th floor.
