Donald is an excellent host and responds quickly to any request. The location is one mile from Echo Park and a short walk to Lady Byrd Cafe, which we highly recommend. The second floor deck with all the potted plants, the smell of Jasmine, and the sound of chirping birds makes you feel like you are staying in a treehouse. Parking on the street in front of the place worked for us and our small vehicle but we would not recommend this spot for a larger SUV or full size truck.
