The host was very nice, as were the other people in the building. They clearly care for their home and want to make people feel welcome.
The apartment itself was very clean. It was pretty small, smaller than it appears in pictures, but still, very clean and had everything one might need. I would not choose to stay here if I was planning on spending a lot of time "at home" but it's a fine place to crash.

There were 2 dogs, one in the complex and one next door, who both barked a lot, which was only annoying early in the morning!

The area is not great. There is nothing within walking distance (I get it's LA but as a visitor, nice to have something to walk to!) and it's a pretty shabby area.

But it was totally affordable, which I appreciate, and the hosts were very nice.
