Outstanding cozy neighborhood respite

Clean, easy, simple. MJ was very communicative, the property exactly as advertised, and was within walking distance of everything we needed. If we'd had a car, we could have parked it. Amazing. We'll be back.

Enjoyable central location

The place is cute, with a nice amount of room for a couple. Location is very ideal, not too far from beach but also easy access to Koreatown and reasonable access to downtown. MJ is a good and quick communicator.

Perfect Home Away from Home!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this Vrbo property in Los Angeles, and I must say it exceeded all my expectations. Situated in a prime LA neighborhood, the property offers the perfect balance of tranquility and accessibility. I was minutes away from top attractions and numerous cafes and restaurants. The neighborhood felt safe and welcoming, adding to the overall comfort of our stay. The duplex itself is impeccably clean and beautifully decorated, The bed was very comfortable and I loved the beautiful bathtub. The host was incredibly responsive and hospitable. From the seamless check-in process to providing helpful local tips, he made sure my stay was flawless. His attention to detail and genuine care truly stood out. This Vrbo property is a gem in Los Angeles. Whether you're visiting for business, a family vacation, or a romantic getaway, this home offers everything you could want and more. It's clear that a lot of thought and care has gone into creating a perfect guest experience.

Quaint City Oasis

First of all MJ is outstanding! Great communication and quick. Location is awesome as this is in a very established neighborhood and very centralized. You can walk to just about anything including Target. All creature comforts are available including a really nice comfy bed and awesome tub. Spacious and well equipped with a relaxing backyard. I will stay here again and again. Thanks MJ!

Private Hideaway in a Quiet Neighborhood

Cozy but spacious, an easy place to "be" and a convenient place to come and go from. Excellent and comfortable furnishings, pleasant outdoor patio, and very easy to adapt to the "minimalist" kitchen, especially since there are great places to eat in LA! The bathroom is large with tub and shower, accessories are provided, and the entire place is private and quiet. Host MJ is thoughtful and communicates promptly. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat!

Perfect stay in the heart of L.A.

I loved this place! It was perfect for my quick solo trip to L.A. It's centrally located near museum row (which you can even walk to!) and restaurants, coffee, etc. The bed is very comfortable, and the rental is quiet, and I'm a light sleeper so that's something I really need. The host was great at communicating all details. I'll definitely book again when I need to visit L.A.

Great place

We spent 4 nights here and have already booked another stay. It was a very clean and spacious place. No stove but food delivery was easy and places to eat close by. Owner was very responsive to any questions we had. It had such a private feel to it and it was just what we were looking for!

Cute little apartment in museum neighborhood

This small apartment had nice outdoor space, challenging street parking, and a good location for walking to attractions. The apartment was clean and the bed was very comfortable, we caught up on sleep! The 'kitchen' is a tiny closet with a mini fridge and coffee maker, but no sink. Had to wash dishes and fill water in the bathroom. Overall a good value for location and amenities.

Exactly as described in other reviews. Safe quiet neighborhood, street parking in front with parking pass, spotless apartment, great bed & bedding, great water pressure in the shower & lots of hot water. Has coffee maker, microwave & small refrigerator. I did not use any of the cups or utensils but had what you would need. Quick feedback for questions from owner. No negatives

Great, comfortable property in nice neighborhood

This is a very nice space in a quiet, residential neighborhood. Self check in was easy with a lockbox. The space is clean and has a huge bedroom and bathroom. The kitchenette area has everything you need for coffee or snacks (no stove). There is also a nice seating area outside that is perfect for morning coffee from the Keurig. Within walking distance to La Brea where there are several very good places - a bakery (Raji), restaurants (Met Him at a Bar, Met Her at a Bar) and bars (All Seasons Brewing, Little Bar). And even more dining options within walking distance north to Wilshire. Also close to the bus line - took the bus to Hollywood and also to Downtown during my stay. I would definitely stay here again.
