Josh and Yirat propose a great apartment. It is spacious and really well furnished for cooking and sleeping (and washing machines are great). We have appreciated having dinners "at home" every evening. And we could watch Netflix and play with PS 3 and board games.
For any question, they bring prompt response as they live downstairs.
In addition, their apartment is greatly located to drive wherever needed in LA.
It has been then difficult to appreciate small rooms in classic hotels in the other cities we went through.
