I stayed at Russell’s place for 2 months while I transitioned to Los Angeles to have some time to look for an apartment and it ended up being the perfect place to call my first home base in the city. The location and street is very residential and quiet, right near the dog park and the reservoir. The space itself is a studio in the lower level of a house, with a full kitchen and all of the amenities one may need for a longer stay. The huge, well decorated outdoor patio was easily my favorite part - I spent most my time outside taking in all of the views of my new city, and especially enjoyed my mornings outside with my yoga mat and the sounds of the hummingbirds nearby. The space is so well thought out and the perfect size for one person. I would recommend Russell’s place to anyone traveling solo in Los Angeles for a longer period of time. Russell is a great and communicative host. I am so grateful for my time spent here and will always remember it fondly!
