Nick was a great host and Robert the dog is very friendly and well behaved. Nick recommended some things to see and do during my stay which I appreciated and his place is really close Figueroa street where you will find restaurants, cafes, record shops, thrift stores a great new music venue, the Lodge Room, and more! This is all about a ten minute walk down the road where along the way you will find the metro which a great way to get around LA. room is small and perfect if all you need is a place to stay like I did. I had an all around great experience and will likely come back if I need a place to stay in the Highland Park area
