I spend a weekend downtown each year with my spouse and we enjoy walking to places, taking public transportation to events, etc. However, we tend to stay a few blocks west of that location and it's much different - especially at night.

Downtown isn't a terrible option to stay because the lines emanate from there - you can take the red line to hollywood and then expo to santa monica
