Paul is a very accomodating host. He made sure we got everything we need before he left as he usually meets with his guests I believe.
The main reason why we chose this apartment was because we wanted to be close to Universal Studios. And yes, it's 30 minutes walk which is also a good opportunity to see restaurants and grocery nearby. The apartment has enough supply of basic needs such as toiletries, towels, etc. Will definitely keep this place in mind the next time we visit Los Angeles.
