If you do not mind a series of steps to get from the street to the house, this location in Echo Park is amazing. Perfect little house surrounded by fruit trees, hummingbirds, and beautiful mountain views. The best view is from the bed!
Great kitchen and there is a cool sustainable food store (Cookbook) nearby. If you do not mind walking 15 minutes, you can get a perfect cup of coffee at Mugshot Coffee Roasters.
The house is cozy and perfect for both short and long stays.
I will definitely come back next time I am in LA.
