Melanie's place is a dream! Such a great location in Echo Park. It is directly accross from the lake and in walking distance of so many shops and restaraunts. Melanie is very communicative and was available to answer any questions or concerns - she even sent over a handyman almost immediately after flagging an issue. She has the place well stocked for any of your needs should it be baking, board games, a quiet room to work in, etc. I highly reccommend staying here if you are looking for an actual home away from home!
