First, James was a super responsive host, even while being in out of the country for work. His recommendation for Tom N Toms coffee was super! I am a new devotee now. His place was great--in the hot Koreatown neighborhood in LA, it's central and easy to get to downtown or around town, close to lots of restaurants and bars, and if you don't want to go out you can have anything you heart desires delivered to your door. The apartment was spotless with plenty of towels, a nice kitchen with an eat-at bar and super comfy bed and sofa! Nice terrace with a view of the Hollywood Hills and the Griffith Observatory. And very quiet! The heat in LA was brutal during our stay but the AC units kept the whole place very chilled! The only downside is finding street parking, which can be tough in Koreatown. Based on everything though, I'd return for sure!
