Hi! The place looks just like the pictures, very cozy, not too big, but great for a couple or maybe even a group of 3 to spend some time in LA. The area is a little bit noisy because of the highway nearby but the apartment is very calm and secluded with a little private patio in front of your door to lay back on a chair and get a little tan ;) The room faces north so you can sleep in the dark and get a good night of rest, the living room is facing east so you get that beautiful morning sunlight.. get up early! :) A cute couple of squirrels have made a home of the tree in the patio and you see them often jumping around from one branch to the other. Having a private patio is great, but it gets dusty pretty quick in the apartment. If you don't mind swiping a little bit more often then usual it's a great place to stay at. There's all you need in the apartment, appliances, dinning-wear, cook-wear, heater, fan, towels.. etc. And Natalie is always there when you call her or text her if you have any trouble finding something or if you need anything. We had a great time :)
