Maria and Mark are absolutely wonderful hosts, and wonderful people in general. We could not have felt more welcome in their beautiful home, which was exactly as described and even nicer than it appears in the photos. Communication prior to our trip was excellent, and they were available, friendly and helpful whenever we needed anything during our stay. The place itself is very clean, well-located, quiet, with space to park along the street outside and we found it easy to drive to all the places we wanted to visit in L.A. I cannot recommend this Airbnb option highly enough, and I hope we will have the opportunity to visit L.A. and stay at Mark and Maria's home again!
