This is a great place to stay in LA. It's not in the heart of the city but no problem if you have a car. We did have a great time staying at Ru & Mig's place. Although we arrived late, Ru was there to welcome and showed us the place. The communication is also perfect. I love the view from the balcony but unfortunately we did not have time to enjoy it that much. This is not the right place if you want to do some cooking.
