Our stay in Patrick's apartment was just what we needed. A nice room, centrally located for a whirlwind weekend in LA. The apartment is just as described/shown, and we were greeted very hospitably by Jesus who lives next door. We felt very welcomed and taken care of. The door is a combination lock that's quite secure but easy to access (no keys to lose :). The neighborhood has very bad parking, but the apartment comes with a parking space. We were given ample warning that the clearance was low to get in, but still managed to get a rental car that was too tall to fit (mid-size suv). That said, we got lucky with parking both days so it all worked out. We would definitely consider staying in the apartment again if we visit, and really appreciate the ease of booking at the last minute.
