Arun and her family welcomed my son and me warmly, almost as though we were fast friends, and isn't that the essence of airbnb? We felt safe and comfortable in their spacious apartment. We cooked up breakfasts, played chess, and monopolized the wifi to seek out local stores and services as we prepared to drop our son off at Occidental College. We also safely biked to nearby stores and on Sunday we drove over to Newport Beach in less than one hour for some bodysurfing and biking along the malecon. We wholeheartedly believe this apartment is the perfect choice for parents conducting business at Occidental College or for any traveler with business nearby. Tourists will be happy to know the neighborhood is a safe place to park your car every night and it's only a quick drive to all the L.A. sights. We will gladly return!
