Derek's place was wonderful, and Derek was a delight as well. The outside space is lovely and we enjoyed talking with friends by the fire pit. After spending a couple of days downtown at the Westin in a tiny hotel room, it was wonderful to have much more space for the same price, plus free wifi, laundry, a kitchenette, and parking (which the Westin charges a ton for!). We would definitely stay here again when we are in LA.
