Description Echo & Light: Los Angeles

Perched above Echo Park in a private gated compound, this studio apartment comes with something rarely found at this price point in LA – a terrace with sweeping city skyline views. Inside, eclectic art and bold colour give the living space real personality, while folding glass doors pull the outdoors in. Sunset Boulevard is just minutes on foot for restaurants, bars, and boutiques, and Echo Park Lake – with paddleboats and lakeside dining at the Boathouse – is a fifteen-minute stroll away.

Home truths:
* This is a studio apartment, so the sleeping and living areas share one open space, though there is a privacy screen separating off the sleeping area. It works well for two guests travelling together, but there's no completely separate room to retreat to if you need privacy.
* Well-behaved pets are welcome to accompany you during your stay.
* You're steps from the dining, shopping, and nightlife along Sunset Boulevard – but this is Los Angeles, so a car is useful for getting further afield. Free parking is included on site.
