The Metro Loft Hideout
Florence-Graham, United States
Overview
The Metro Loft Hideout is a compact, ground-floor apartment unit with mezzanine sleeping areas in the Florence-Graham/Huntington Park area of Los Angeles (ZIP 90011). The unit is about 550 sq. ft. and sits within a fully fenced building with a gated entry. It is positioned for quick access to Downtown LA-area attractions and major freeways, with a focus on privacy and practical, self-contained living.
Layout & Sleeping Setup
The apartment uses a two-level configuration: a ground-floor living/kitchen area and two mezzanine bedrooms. Bedroom 1 has a queen bed plus a desk and chair; Bedroom 2 has two single beds in a trundle-style setup. Note that Bedroom 2 is a pass-through to reach Bedroom 1, so Bedroom 2 is not private, and ceiling heights are lower than average (about 7 ft on the first floor and 6 ft on the mezzanine).
In-Unit Kitchen & Living Area
A full kitchen is provided with a stove, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, water kettle, coffee maker with coffee supplies, and a set of cookware and dining ware (including mugs and wine glasses). The living area includes a wall-mounted widescreen TV, board games, sofa, and coffee table. Air conditioning is provided via split AC units serving the living and bedroom areas.
Bathroom, Laundry, and House Rules
The bathroom includes a rain showerhead plus a handheld shower, along with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, towels, toilet paper, and a hairdryer. Laundry is available in a shared, coin-operated laundry room for the building (detergent not provided). The property is smoke-free with a strict no-smoking policy, and parties/mass gatherings are not allowed; exterior security cameras monitor areas such as the driveway and front door.
Location & Nearby Transit/Dining
Public transit is close by, with multiple bus stops within a short walk, including Gage / Santa Fe (about 141 m) and Gage Ave & Malabar St (Eastbound) (about 207 m). Nearby casual dining options include The Corner Grill Express (about 591 m), The Neighborhood Cafe (about 628 m), Birrieria “El Güero” (about 655 m), and NORMS Restaurant (about 992 m). For air travel, Los Angeles International Airport is roughly 16.9 km away, and other regional airports such as Long Beach and Hollywood Burbank are also within driving distance.
Best for
This apartment-style stay is best for travelers who want a self-contained unit with a full kitchen, air conditioning, and a smoke-free environment. It suits guests who plan to rely on nearby buses for getting around, thanks to several stops within a few hundred meters. It can also work for small groups who are comfortable with the mezzanine setup and the fact that one bedroom is a pass-through rather than fully private.
