My husband and I moved from Brooklyn to LA with our 2 year old daughter and 2 cats. Nothing stressful about that! We needed a place to stay for a few weeks that was furnished while our stuff came across country. I was worried about location, how big a place might be and would the layout be ok for a toddler and 2 cats, and was their laundry. We found Elen and Cool Pad and it could not have been more perfect. She is wonderful and ready to help in anyway she can. We even got homemade cookies! The apartment is comfortable and amazingly well stocked. The laundry is shared but right outside the guest unit and there was never a problem. I have a 2 year old and something always has to be washed! Even right outside the door the sounds of the machine weren't an issue. There is a great grocery store with in walking distance too. I could really go on and on about the special attention we recieved and how nice everyone is who live in the other units, but I am not sure there is enough room. I will simply say that this is by far the best rental I have stayed in and would recommend it to anyone. Our first few weeks in LA were wonderful. Oh, and the Hollywood farmers Market is a must and you are really right under the Hollywood sign.
