My friend and I went to LA to celebrate our birthdays. Mieko's place definitely added to the occasion. the apartment was stylishly decorated and had everything we needed to prepare meals if we wanted. The check in process was smooth as Mieko emailed very clear and precise directions. The apartment is within walking distance to the South Bay Mall and many eating options. It is a short uber ride to downtown and Hollywood. We even used the bus as there were many lines available. We highly recommend Mieko's place and will be happy to stay there again.
