My 18 year old daughter and I spent a few days in Michael's apartment and found Michael to be a wonderful host and the apartment was perfect for us. It is very comfortable and homely. We had everything we needed and Michael gave us lots of great advice about getting around. The neighbourhood is very safe and we were only a short distance from everything we needed. We hired a car and found the street parking easy. I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone wanting to spend some time in LA,.
