My advice is to simply rent a car and join the traffic! Sounds like from your costs here it would have been cheaper, and less stressful. The public transportation is either non existent or inconvenient, depending on where you are and we you area going. Downtown is def not high on the list for seeing the cool stuff in LA. I recommend staying in either Hollywood or a beach community like Santa Monica or Venice. As a pretty recent LA resident, the distance/traffic congestion can really be a challenge here.
