Matthew's place is wonderful--spacious, quiet, and cozy, with a well-equipped kitchen and a lovely yard and front porch. We were able to get around fine without a car. A bus to downtown stops a block away, and a bus that goes to the Hollywood Transit Center (connecting with the Red Line to the airport) is 2 1/2 blocks away (warning: pretty steep hill from the bus stop to the apt.). It's an easy 6-block walk to coffee shops, restaurants, and 2 grocery stores on Woodstock Blvd. A great neighborhood to relax in. Can't wait to return!
