Our stay at Brendan and Stina's was very enjoyable. We had some trouble getting our key in the beginning, but the hosts were very helpful and it worked out eventually. The bedroom and the bathroom were reasonably clean.
Perhaps it should be noted that the second bed in the "East Hollywood"-room is simply a mattress. The other bed was very comfortable (or so I've been told), however.
Finally, the apartment is incredibly well located and very affordable. It's a three-minute walk to the next metro station, and from there you can easily go to Hollywood, Downtown Los Angeles, Santa Monica and Long Beach (also the last two may take a while, LA is huge!).
