I enjoyed my stay at David’s place. His mother, Judith, who hosted me, got me settled quickly. She is a wonderful person and very helpful. Although the apartment is relatively secluded, at least for L.A., David’s place is close to several shops and restaurants. By car, one can quickly get to Atwater, Echo Park and Sunset Blvd. in Silver Lake. Everything in the apartment was in order, by the way. And the terrace outside is large and a great place to work or read a book.
