Wow, where to begin? This was an absolutely exceptional property to stay in. Rochelle was a great host - extremely communicative and gave very clear instructions for check in/out. Moreover, she provided great recommendations for the neighbourhood. Rochelle was also very available at every point, and very quick to respond to any queries.

The property itself was simply fantastic. It's steeped in history and character, with an interesting blend of 1930's LA and Spanish Villa. There's a lovely art collection within the house and eclectic vintage decor/detailing. Everywhere you look there's some interesting design feature or vintage element to the house. If you're a fan of unique character homes/design/art, you'll be thrilled with this house. In terms of amenities it has all mod cons you'd expect, including washer/dryer, full kitchen, A/C, wifi, etc. I was particularly impressed with the attention to detail in terms of how well-stocked the kitchen supplies are - you have a full arsenal of kitchen appliances and a stocked pantry at your disposal.

In terms of location, the house is in a great area - just off of Fairfax and about equidistant from the Grove shopping complex and LACMA on Wilshire. It's a short walk up to the Farmers' Market and Grove, as well as the many boutiques and restaurants along 3rd St. Heading in the other direction will take you towards LACMA, the La Brea tar pits, and further still towards Koreatown, the art district, downtown, etc. It's a longer walk or short cab/bus ride up towards Sunset and Hollywood, but due to how relatively central this location is (granted how sprawling Los Angeles is), you can get virtually everywhere in a reasonable amount of time.

Overall this was a great experience, and I wouldn't hesitate to stay at this property again.
