Greg and Shawn's place is in a great location in Los Angeles there's a convenience store less than 10 mins walk from their place and there's also a very nice mini supermarket called Yummy's which does organic food and produce. There's also a Subway nearby. There are car rental places nearby for international travelers who don't want to drive from the airport after a long flight.
The apartment is super clean, the checking in process is a breeze and they are very thoughtful hosts. The neighbours are really nice and friendly too.
one tip for the bedroom have the windows open and the ceiling fan on cools the room much better then air-conditioning and healthier too.
