This chic little apartment is the perfect LA base for those wanting a home-from-home setting. The apartment is bright and welcoming, with a Scandi feel and quirky touches that make it nice and cosy. It can be found at the heart of Chinatown, so you’re in a lively part of town and also never far from your next great meal. You can hop in a cab and be Downtown in six minutes, so it couldn’t be easier to explore the Arts District’s museums and hip restaurants. Echo Park is also just six minutes away by car, and sports fans will be pleased to learn that they can stroll from the apartment to Dodger Stadium in just twenty minutes. This apartment is a great base for exploring, whether you’re in LA for business, leisure, or a mixture of the two.
