The apartment was comfortable and squeaky clean. You couldn't ask for a better location. We took the bus to UCLA and even to and from the beach. There is a little market next door, a Sprouts grocery store about 3 blocks away, and tons of restaurants on the same block. The neighborhood felt very safe and we walked around at night with no concerns. The only downside was that we could hear our upstairs neighbors sometimes. We would definitely stay here again!
