Rachel is a great host! I had questions and she was quick to respond with answers. The apartment has a cool vibe. You'll love the artwork. It is in a fantastic location! Echo Park is a great neighborhood, with loads of shops, restaurants, coffee shops and a day spa. Hiking trails are very close. And if you walk across sunset and into the adjacent neighborhood, you'll see amazing views of Down Town LA and the house in Michael Jackson's Thriller video! The apartment is a 7 minute Uber ride to Down Town and 3.5 hours from Sequoia National Park. Enjoy!
