I LOVED staying at this place. A real gem of a neighborhood and a fantastic value of an apartment. Incredibly spacious, the balcony alone was the size of a hotel room. Great views. Nice stylish decor. The location is a quiet hidden area of town not even some veteran Angelenos know about. Went on a hike around the neighboring streets— many cool nooks and crannies and hidden public staircases, certain streets and other houses in the neighborhood are not even accessible by car. Very cool. I also hitched a ride up the High Tower Elevator near where Robert Altman filmed The Long Goodbye with Elliot Gould in the 1970s. Great film. Great vibe.
Fair warning: Jackie’s dogs can be a little vigorous with the barking and jumping up against the window as you walk by her place to your private entrance. But I love dogs, so I found them charming, even the few times they startled the bejeezus out of me.
