We've reviewed Andre Balaz's hotel 'The Standard' in NYC with their infamous exhibitionist windows & how you can buy a piece of The Standard.
Now it's time to check out The Standard in Downtown Los Angeles. First the stats: It's a former oil headquarter office building built in 1952 and it's been converted into this hip hotel. The hotel has 184 rooms (plus 23 suites) and rates can be as cheap as the upper $100's up to the lower $500's depending on the room and day you book.
Amenities include a gift shop, hair salon, a 2-story lobby lounge that dubs as a disco complete with pool tables plus DJ and a restaurant that's open 24/7. It's best feature is it's roof top pool and bar. It's got amazing views of Downtown LA plus the scene there is much like a Hollywood club, it's jamming.
(the 12 story The Standard in Downtown Los Angeles - since 2002)
One sexy feature of the hotel is the bathrooms in the rooms. They feature glass walls so you better not be shy. Lots of reviewers either like it or hate it, depending on who they booked the room with. If you're with your SO, it's great....if you're with a casual friend on business, yikes.

The roof top pool is always hot. They got a DJ up there so if you're on floors 10 or up you might be hearing the noise till they shut down around 1:30am, but this hotel is not a place where you come to relax, it's the more a hip party type of hotel. Drink prices can be pricey at $15 and more but as a guest of the hotel, at least you don't have the pay the $20 cover charge for the roof top club on Friday and Saturday nights.
You might remember the pool at this Standard from 2007 when Brittany Spears decided to get topless in the pool with some random college dude. Check the story here: Brittany parties at The Standard.
