I enjoyed Niel's space. Nice guy, very approachable as far as anything I needed, which I didn't but still very cordial. The apartment is nothing too fancy and caters to basic needs. Even a stocked fridge, which was kind. The toiletries and soaps were also generously stocked.
The area is south of Echo Park. There's a couple restaurants along Glendale Blvd but if you're trying to get groceries, closest store I found was on Sunset. About a 20 mins walk north of the unit. The taco truck off Temple in the car wash lot is really good. The place is centrally located in the middle between DTLA and surrounding areas: Hollywood, K-town, Silverlake.
What you see in the photos accurately frame the apartment. Loved the balcony with the views. Can't say anything really negative except thag the parking can be a problem. Again, really enjoyed my stay even though I was out most of the day and only there to sleep/shower. Perfect for 1, 2 guests max. Cost-efficient and gets the job done, thanks Niel.
