I was relocating to L.A. and stayed here for 6 weeks as temporary housing. Great location between the beach and Abbot Kinney - lots of options for dining and entertainment that were easy to walk to. I was pleasantly surprised how quiet it was. Big, comfortable bed too! There were also some beach gear (boogie boards and a football) and a DVD player available - both unadvertised pluses! Alba & Mike were very responsive to anything I needed. The only thing I would recommend is to bring a fan to help circulate air through the apartment as it can get a little warm in the afternoon.
