I go down to LA several times a year to visit my daughter who lives in Echo Park. This was by far my favorite rental. It was perfect for a solo traveler, though I'm sure 2 would do well. The bed was fantastically comfortable; it was private with great lighting inside and out. The shower was a treat and the full kitchen was a pleasant surprise. Maiana is a terrific host answering all questions in a very timely manner. It's just a few blocks from wonderful Echo Park lake and going in the other direction - you soon hit cafes and shops. I look forward to staying here again, and when with friends, will try the house on the same property. Echo Park is eclectic and this studio provided a great sanctuary after hours and hours of running around LA.
