Debbie's place is perfectly located in Echo Park. I was here on business and wanted to stay in an area that had good coffee and dinner options. Echo Park has all of that plus some nice morning walk options (near Dodger Stadium).
The place itself was clean, the bed was good (pretty firm) and there was great off street parking. I gave it full marks but I thought it would be worth saying that it was suited for me - a solo business traveler. The precise location is right on the main street, next to shops and behind is a big carpark with a razor wire fence, and the walls between you and the adjoining / duplex airbnb are pretty darn thin (as others have mentioned), so it doesn't have that private, romantic, 'oh my god we're in LA!' feel you look for when you're say traveling with your partner. Of course, those places cost a bit more; for all the other reasons, it's great value.
