The apartment is in a quiet building with a large shared roof patio (great views)! We had some fixes that needed to be taken care of initially, and Dan got on them right away. We stayed for about 2 months, and the apartment served us well during that time.
The non-master bedroom is by the outside hallway, and so you might hear some early-morning greetings from neighbors. The kitchen is small, but has sufficient tools for making meals. The in-unit washer/dryer was very convenient for small-medium loads of laundry, and works well!
The neighborhood is quiet and safe, close walk to Chinatown and Sunset Blvd. Honestly nothing interesting around the actual neighborhood, but it's a close walk/drive to most points of interest of downtown/east LA.
