Sara and Shuyue's place is right off the "main drag" in echo park, within walking distance from all the shops and little cafes. The balcony is as nice as the picture and was lovely especially in the evening. We needed to make a last minute change to the reservation and Sara was quick to respond and couldn't have been nicer. If having a sparkling bathroom is your thing, this may not be your place but the location and porch can't be beat.
