Baggage locker in downtown Los Angeles
I have a morning flight into LAX and I'd like to do some sightseeing before taking a Metrolink train out to the suburbs in the evening to stay with a friend. I'm looking for luggage storage so I don't have to carry around my bags all day.
Looking online, it looks like there used to be lockers at Union Station (seven years ago). But Amtrak's station information page says "No Lockers". They do have "Baggage Storage", but since I'm not traveling on Amtrak, so that option might not be available to me.
I tried calling Metrolink. They referred me to Amtrak and LA Metro. LA Metro told me that there are no options due to security reasons. Amtrak said I'd probably have to be a ticketed passenger to use the service.
Are there any other options in downtown Los Angeles* that'd keep me from dragging my luggage around all day?
*Hollywood area would be acceptable too since it's only 15 minutes by subway from downtown
Best Answer
I needed to store my luggage in Hollywood because I had a 12 AM flight and arrived early in the day from another city, so all I did was order a cheap bunk at a backpacker's place. Then the good thing was I got to take a shower before getting on the flight.

Answer 2
If you're traveling light, your best bet is probably to use a luggage service like http://www.laxluggagestorage.com/. Their rates seem reasonable, but I have no experience with the company.
If you've got more bags, you might be able to book a day room (hotel room just for the day). It would be a convenient base for your day trips, and provide a place to keep your bags.
