We had a wonderful, inspired stay at this little gem of a studio garden apartment. Maiana and her family were away, but their good friend Omar greeted us upon arrival and made us feel at home the entire stay. Though we never met our hosts, their personalities shone through all the creative, lovingly thought out flourishes. From the beautiful zen garden-meets-urban-farm feel to their yard to the well-chosen books to browse, to arriving to a fully stocked kitchen (with heavenly coffee to boot), we loved the place at once. We always felt welcome, and enjoyed making it our home away from home for our four night stay. We will definitely be returning and recommending friends! Our stay even has us dreaming of a life in LA ourselves...
