This was the perfect place for us to stay in LA as it was across the street from our daughter. The studio is exactly as described, very clean and comfortable. The courtyard is sweet with the fireplace and the chandelier. We did not meet Joseph but he was communicative via text/email. If you are there on a Sunday the Hollywood farmers market is a must. There is street parking if you are renting s car but be mindful of which side you park on Mondays and Tuesday's as there is street cleaning..great place to stay in Hollywood!
