Katie's place was the exactly same as the picture. The room was very cozy and comfortable. The place is about 30 min drive from major sightseeing places (such as Hollywood or Universal Studios) but it wasn't a problem for us because we rent a car. Katie was out of town during our stay but she gave us her cohost's number so that we could easily reach to him. The place doesn't have a stove but has a microwave so we could heat up some food. I will definitely stay at her place again if I have a chance to revisit LA next time.
