I stayed at Sadaf’s studio for one month and I would certainly recommend it.
What first got my attention about this listing was the value. If you are not familiar w/ LA: this neighborhood is THE safest within the city and only 3 miles away from the beach. It is worth every penny and more. I made sure to book way in advance because I knew this would be a nice deal that others would consider as well.
Sadaf greeted me and gave me a thorough walk-through of the place when I arrived. I was impressed because the patio is bigger than it looks in the photo, and the studio has plenty of natural light. Sadaf provides everything that one could need while visiting: shampoos, soaps, paper, cookware, coffee maker, toaster, silverware, dishes, and cleaning supplies. There is even a laundry unit available. All of these things make it very easy for one to travel light.
You can hardly tell that anyone else is on the property most of the time - so yes it is very private. Sadaf was responsive to all my other needs and very pleasant. The dogs sometimes come by but they are easily frightened, harmless, and small.
I felt like I was home by the time my visit ended. I would certainly stay in the studio again if it is available in the future.
