Samuel's apartment is amazing. Impeccably clean and decorated, with super-comfortable beds. The couch is ultra-comfortable, too. Location is conveniently located just a few blocks from the el. We didn't spend much time there as we were out and about in the city, but coming back to this wonderful apartment was a great way to end each day. Samuel is also very quick to communicate and friendly. In all, we had a great stay and will try to come back in the future! Very highly recommended.
Area recommendations: Be sure to check out Lindo Michoacan for some of the best, truly authentic Mexican food around--they even serve breakfast! They also have a great market with all manner of Latino products as well as a bakery. Kabobi Persian and Mediterranean Grill is a couple of blocks away and also serves incredible food.
