Looks exactly like a larger version of my Shelob, She is also Brachypelma albopilosum! definitely one LPS mistake i would appreciate. Ive never owed a rosea but i know B. albopilosum's, honduran curly hair's, are pretty great, and are pretty docile!
its weird, i know it can change at a pins drop, but shelob seems to docile. as an example, i have shelob, my girlfriend has a A. Geniculata. and even putting tongs into the enclosure to change out the water, her genic will cross the entree enclosure just to see whats going on and try to climb out.
where as shelob, i can sit there with the entire top off, adding in substrate or water dishes and she won't so much as acknowledge me, she will walk around doing her own thing. I'm curious to see how she will react once she fully matures.
Everyone is right about what it is and I just wanted to chime in that it is a nice one. There's some color variation in specimens and there are different theories on why, but the ones that end up darker like this IMHO are the best looking.
