My team and I have made several trips to Los Angeles and stayed in and around DTLA and Echo Park. Melanie's place stands out for its location (right across from Echo Park and very walkable to Sunset Blvd) and for the many, many thoughtful touches she has put into making it a comfortable stay for her guests.
We kept saying that she should give Airbnb hosting lessons, because she has literally thought of everything: clear directions, extra amenities, tons of games –– and wonderful reads of local interest. I would stay again in a heartbeat, as this was a wonderful Airbnb experience all around. Thank you, Melanie!!
