Erick's place is homey, well appointed with many kitchen and household items that made our stay feel like being home. He was a great communicator. We also stayed during a heat wave and were very comfortable with the AC and use of the fans provided. The place is really cozy and also the yard was inviting. It was too hot for us to take advantage of the outdoors for this stay, but perhaps in the future when we relocate again, we'll stay at Erick's place and enjoy the yard. The view downtown is priceless and the "secret stairs" of the area were fun.
We highly recommend checking out Erick's place and trying to stay there when in LA and wanting to be east of downtown.
