Sandy & Dereks apartment is cosy & really cool - the bed is super comfortable as well! They are very nice hosts & make you feel welcome - the brekky in the morning was also an added bonus.
You definitely need a car staying out here, but they have free off street parking for guests & it's very easy to get to all the main places (by car) from their apartment.
A great, safe, cheap stay in LA - perfect for backpackers or travellers on a budget.
