Hotel Alexandria Apartments

I have lived here almost 5 years.There is no a/c except in commercial areas.In winter,you have heat whether you want it or not.There are many varied insects and you may write a note to management for an exterminator appointment. They do come quickly,though.During the week,the building is well cleaned and maintained.On the weekend,over extended security people are a point of contact.They help with the frequently broken elevators .As usual,LAPD and LAFD are fast and on the spot.We are about four... blocks from Skid Row. Sadly, the wonderful Two Bits store is now closed. It had wonderful people and excellent food! There is a ceiling fan in kitchenette are,but little ventilation except for windows. Read More
