Mark's home was very clean and in a nice neighborhood in Whitter. It is only a few minutes drive to Ralph's, Trader Joes, Starbucks, etc. It was very quiet and I felt quite safe. My room had air conditioning, nice size bed for 1/2 people, and a small fridge which were perfect touches since I made his place my home for a couple of days. The host responded quite fast and communication was not an issue at all. I would stay here again if I was in the area.
