Lauren's place was perfect for my one week stay in LA. The location is great. It's located in beautiful Silver Lake, not far from Echo Park. Many cafes, restaurants, and shopping are in walking distance or a short drive away. There is a great grocery store in walking distance which I loved since I was staying for the week.
The fixtures and decor are modern and new. It's a perfect, cozy spot. You will hear some noise above you from the family since they live above the unit, but it's not really a big deal. If you're looking for 100% quiet, 100% of the time, this may not work for you, but if you're looking for a wonderful 1-bedroom apartment that is beautifully appointed in a great neighborhood then I think you will be very happy. I would definitely stay again. Lauren is very nice and accommodating. She makes you feel very welcome and responds to questions, requests very quickly.
