We were very pleasantly surprised by this urban oasis. It is nestled in a beautiful, lush garden area that is really breathtaking. The apartment is large with a very high vaulted ceiling. The kitchen and living room area are on the first floor. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The sofa and stuffed chair are very comfortable. There is a loft upstairs with a large bedroom and bath. The bed is also very comfortable. There is a cozy balcony off the bedroom which overlooks the beautiful garden. All in all it is a great place for short term or longer term stays. In fact, we hope to be able to stay longer in the future. Frank was a great host and was very quick to respond to our inquiries. This has been our best LA experience yet and we have been visiting here for many years.
