Andrew did a great job communicating and guiding us into his great pad in the hills. The loft fit our needs perfectly. It was exactly as described in his listing. We were only in town for a quick weekend for a concert at the Hollywood Bowl. His place is literally 10 minutes from the venue. We did a few short jaunts down Ventura Blvd, Universal Studios, and into The Hills for a great hike... All minutes from Andrew's place. The great location offered us a centralized base to head back to for anything from a quick shower, change of clothes, or an afternoon nap. We took full advantage of the kitchenette to store and prepare snacks for our day hike in the canyon. The street was really quiet while we were there and the murphy bed was really comfy. Andrew kept in contact through occasional messages just to make sure we had all that we needed. He was not intrusive and, in the same token, made us feel very welcome.
