The layout of the stop is unique like many others with bright lights and wide open space and designs reflecting the immediate area above with chrome beams, pillars, glass and constellation wall art. Lots of lush greenery as you make your way up or down for a return trip. One of the more upkept stations with easy to read maps of connecting services as well as caddy corner to a lot of surface city buses and connecting surfaces. I've been able to enjoy shows and events at the EL Cid, strut on down to Akbar, grab eats at Green Leaves and My Vegan Gold (a super favorite), get a check up at the hospital, hit up the local Vons as well as Bestie's (a plant-based health food and snack store) and even wait in line Vista Theater. Parking in the area is definitely a mission at times, but if you're going out for a day or night of EaHo/East Hollywood/Silver Lake/Los Feliz/Little Armenia excitement and a drink or more is on the to do list then absolutely put you faith in your walk and in your ride via the LA Red Line station of Vermont Avenue & Sunset Blvd

Glendale station, 400 W Cerritos Ave, a few things I take the Metrolink and Amtrak here. One thing…read moreI note is that some Amtrak trains like Coast starlight which goes all the way to Seattle (Doesn't stop here it'll just pass through). However as this is the closest station I aim to either go here or to Los Angeles. Usually I get a ride or uber or take access services home. However I tried to catch the bus from here and I think they're all Glendale beeline operated now. This has its ups and downs, like one it's cleaner and more frequent, and the other is getting here past 8pm or late night and there's no service, same for any time on holidays or late night weekends. If you need to take the bus home later than 6pm, I suggest you go through Burbank as metro always operates. The ambience is clean sometimes it may be a little loud especially w the trains coming but it's safer than having to be at Los Angeles at midnight. If I could change one thing about this station I'd say have buses run laters like the Metrolink and Amtrak trains do. Even have a line run a holiday schedule so those who need the bus don't gotta walk a few blocks to catch the metro (if it even runs where you need to go). My opinion is it is cleaner but transit equity is limited here it's needs more access to public transit.

The train passed through it, sometimes stopped here and the beautiful architecture in Mission Revival-style got my attention. Some trains don't stop here, so check their schedules. It is a great option if you live in the Valley. They have a free, big parking lot, machines work ok, restrooms are clean enough, they could have more people working here, but that's something I could say about most of them. Nice seating area, outdoor stop, very pretty, typical old LA amazing buildings. Some scenes for movies were shot here, which isn't surprising. Great option for catching the train!

Going east to west: -The line starts in Pasadena, at Lake Ave.& Colorado Blvd., then moves its way down Colorado Boulevard, stopping at Paseo Colorado and then the heart of Old Town Pasadena. -From Old Town it makes a rapid bee line to Eagle Rock and all the places you can go around the corner of Eagle Rock Blvd. & Colorado. - From there, you make your way to Glendale, stopping at the Americana & Galleria mall. -A few minutes later, you're entering Los Feliz, with Griffith Park to your right and the Mulholland Fountain to the left as you cross the intersection of Riverside Dr. and Los Feliz Blvd. -Up the hill along Los Feliz Blvd, you're now making your way towards the heart of Los Feliz, stopping at Hillhurst Ave. and then turning down Vermont Ave. 'till you reach Hollywood Blvd. and make a sharp right. -Soon you're on your way down Hollywood Blvd, passing a Metro Red Line stations at Western & Vine, and then another at Highland as you gawk at tourists and super heroes posting for photos. -Another left turn as you approach Fairfax Ave. and you make your way down Fairfax, past Sunset Blvd, Santa Monica Blvd, Melrose Ave., Beverly Blvd. and then 3rd Street, where you can exit and visit the Farmer's Market & the Grove. -The line continues on for another couple of miles, ending at Washington Blvd. There are so many sites to see on this trip. You can take your time and explore each one and make a day of it. Or, get on and get going to where you need to go. The trip to the Farmer's Market is particularly nice, as you can avoid the parking hassles. Rapid Buses are usually newer and are the "articulated" or "bendy" buses, so they accommodate many more passengers. Cleanliness levels vary, as do characters you might come across while on board. But, hey, it's public transit in a big city, you gotta roll with it. A book and/or iPod helps to make the time move along. Fare is $1.25 each way, or you can get a Day Pass for $5, which entitles you to unlimited travel on bus & rail. Rapid Buses, generally, have less frequent schedules on weekends, so consult the http://metro.net site for a timetable. Here's a list of attractions along the way: Pasadena City College Paseo Colorado Old Town Pasadena Norton Simon Museum Americana at Brand Glendale Galleria Glendale Transportation Center Metrolink, Amtrak, Glendale Beeline Griffith Park Hillhurst & Vermont Avenues Hollywood & Vine Hollywood & Highland Kodak Theater The Grove Farmer's Market La Brea Tar Pitts LA County Museum of Art Petersen Automotive Museum West LA Transit Center

This is the third time I've decided to not use the Burbank Bus in the past 3yrs. Below is a…read moredetailed list of what's been done to me in the past year: Driver L: I asked for the ramp & I was refused. Instead, she forced me to stretch my legs and strain myself to get on the bus. Then she said see I knew you could do it. I have severe mobility issues, a history of falling, and an access disable bus card. It doesn't matter to them. On several occasions this driver has watched me get up, once I do, the driver hits the brakes and I get slammed into the pole/handhold. Finally, 99% of the time this driver pulls up too far from the curb, loading & unloading. All drivers cater to the people taking the train in to Burbank then bussing it to their job. The drivers wait for said working class until 5 minutes passed takeoff time. But they won't wait for me. On several occasions they have left me even though I wave my hand for them to wait. Additionally, all but 1 driver pretend not to see me then at the last minute pull over, same for dropping me off, going past my stop. All of them ask me where I'm going but no one else. They also don't wait for me to sit down. And when I board the working class or non-disabled sit in the priority handicap seats; not offering me a seat & the driver says nothing either. Also, I've been asked to get off the back which is street level not curb level so their working class can load in the front. There are 2 passengers that continually harass me once I load by rubbing & touching themselves. Driver L told me last week that their passengers can do whatever they want to me as long as they say nothing; but one passenger did called me a terrorist. Driver J: has yelled at me, passed me by, stop 2 feet from the curb loading & unloading but not to anyone else. He refuses to let me sit after I tap my card. Driver C & L stop the bus at my stop then as soon as I stand, grab my bags, & start to walk up the aisle they put the bus in motion almost causing me to fall. I have called & called the switchboard but nothing happens but fallout. Why am I treated this way? I don't work, I'm retired I am homeless I am a senior All of the above is discrimation [reported] as they choose who they're nice, too!!

She does nothing. She is supposed to open bathroom doors & insure they are safe & fully stocked. She does not. She is to insure that passengers get on & off busses & trains safely. She's never around where there is heavy foot traffic. She walks numerous times to her car for food thus eating while she walks around on duty. She makes & receives personal calls while on duty. She plays with her hair. Additionally she allows anyone to smoke & vape at the station but me. Sadly, I witnessed a drug deal 2 weeks ago. Where was she then? It's no longer safe there in the mornings since Boaz & Guzman relocated to uptown Burbank. Lastly, she wears her own clothing leading people to ask me questions because she doesn't look like security. She needs to be replaced.

Welcome to East Hollywood-ish courtesy the LA Metro Redline station of Hollywood and Western... The hustle and bustle of the intersection down into this subway haven is constantly busy, but the station itself is pretty spacious and laid back for the most part. A lot of urban flare and mixes of cultures, cuisines, and characters nearby. The TAP terminals for either purchasing or reloading your TAP card are almost always fully functional and well-lit. The Metro workers are always on-site and close by unlike a few miscellaneous stops you might hit I feel like they are easy to flag down or spot if you have any questions or issues here. Like most of the LA Redline stations, there is quite a bit of art, decorum, and appeal to the eyes and here you get a slice of nostalgia above the platform level with the old train replicas coming out of the walls, some multicolored checkered tiles, helpful visual ads and some unique seating on the platform level. It's a station with history, but also relevance.

You can exit or enter from a few points along Vermont Avenue & Santa Monica Blvd, just across from the ARCO ampm which neighbors The Vermont Hollywood.... If you go to Willowbrook & Vermont, next to LALC: Los Angeles City College you can board here as well. The platforms and inside the station are kept better than some stops, though the top half/street level varies. There is a unisex public restroom near the light that was installed a year or so ago, nice needed addition. I do hope they continue to make improvements. Kiosk available downstairs only. Elevators, stairs and escalators... Though the escalator up after I exited and ran into some friends was down so... We got out leg day in! Q Tip: No parking lot for this station, unfortunately, like a lot of stations for the B (Red) Line... So if you're super commuter Westlake/MacArthur Park or Universal Station are the closest with spaces.

The stop (B line, ex Red) is your typical LA stop, clean enough, cold decor, could be more seating, more comfortable seating, maybe a human working would be nice, some security.

I would place it in the middle in terms of safety and I would give it higher points for being in a decent location, helpful to use.

Upon arrival to the parking lot, you pay for parking either online or kiosk there. Then, you can use your digital tap card on phone to pay or also get card at kiosk. The subway from union station to NoHo and back, comes by every 10 minutes, making this very accessible and quickly gets you to your destination. I was in Hollywood before 5pm and knocked out the traffic ahead. There are restrooms outside this station as well. There is also plenty of metro securities and police circulating around the station and checking fares. Best tip: always be aware of your surroundings and take with caution. Overall, I had a pleasant, inexpensive and quick ride to Hollywood in no time.

Uber car seat didn't seem to be a reliable option and ride hailing services required a super far transfer to another pickup location. The bus was also triple the time to our destination near the cruise port. Go Ride was very clear about their pricing and they were detailed when answering a follow up question I had about pickup time which was fortunate as our flight ended up getting in 30 mins earlier than scheduled. Our driver, Oscar, arrived early to pick us up - I received an iMessage from him before landing using my airline's in-flight wifi - I was able to send him updates as we got off the plane and got our bags. He pulled up within 5 mins of my last message when we had our bags conveniently right outside the terminal. It was so easy I didn't even need to rent the $8 USD luggage cart and my kids didn't have enough time to complain about any wait. Oscar was really helpful with our bags and had all the car seats already installed correctly! All seats were facing the correct direction, solid, tight and the only adjustment needed was for the actual seat belts themselves to secure the kids. Oscar offered us bottles of water and we were off to the hotel. On the way we had a nice chat and he was totally OK with the youngest child crying for a bit while navigating LA's notorious traffic (he said it was light but to me it was busy). Drop off at the hotel was smooth and we tipped in cash for great service - he impressed us! Definitely would recommend to anyone especially families looking for a smooth experience getting anywhere from LAX airport. I will be using them again for future travel. Pricing: reasonable and competitive for door to door private car service with car seats. Communication: from booking to actual day of it was the right amount of detail Quality: car and car seats were super clean Safety: our driver Oscar was safe while navigating LA's freeway and street traffic. Car seats were properly installed and well maintained. Convenience: Door to door service was amazing and easy - I had bags but didn't require a luggage cart at all. Time saved = more relaxation time = less whiny little ones Thanks again Oscar and Go Ride!
