1901 S Alameda St Ste 101, Los Angeles, CA 90058 (213) 747-1239 Wheelchair: Yes / They have handicap booths
The guide
Where exactly
10 FWY (Santa Monica), exit Alameda South. First driveway after you pass Washington Bl. Cross street: E. Washington Bl.
Cruisiest spot: Most look at movie covers and mags waiting for the right one to go into a booth. There is sometimes action in the lot, but it is way too open.
When to go
24/7 Best times: After work is busy. Weekends are steady.
Etiquette
Leave door unlocked. Make eye contact over movie and mag racks.
Nudity: They seem very uncaring as to what goes on.
Safety
The restroom almost always smells like . Seems like there are a lot of aprehensive first-timers there. I've seen cops go in, but they just walk around. They don't even knock on the doors.

why would you guy go here when you could have gone down the street 5 minutes to Firestone and Alameda? It has glory holes (3) of them and a lot of booths. They really don't hassle you for the most part.. and dudes hook up there all the time? For you guys to waste your time at this place is your fault. Just two weeks ago, cruise had Firestone Books as cruisy site of the week! Everything you hate and talk about this place is just the opposite at Firestone Books Adult bookstore

This place sucks. 1.)YOU WILL BE KICKED OUT if you are caught or seemingly looking for action in there. 2.)Most of the men who frequent it are either drunk, sweaty...or drunk and sweaty 3.)The booths take your money faster than any I've ever been to in my life.
