Russell's place is a 5-star Airbnb every which way you can measure. This was the third time I've stayed there and I hope he continues to list on Airbnb so I can stay there EVERY time I visit LA. The location is excellent, near a major freeway (Ventura Highway), two minutes walk from a great restaurant (Hugo's), and as I discovered this visit, a nice 15-minute walk to an LA Fitness center that has free short-term guest memberships. The room is very clean and comfy, and private. Everything works, great shower. And unlike many Airbnbs in LA, it's not several floors up in an apartment building, but in a regular home, complete with rose bushes outside and a charming wooden fence. Russell himself is great, super friendly and extremely helpful with suggestions for how to get the most out of a stay in LA. Couldn't recommend it more highly.
