This was our first Airbnb experience, and I can't imagine how the others will live up to this standard. Everything worked out perfectly. Cari was communicative and helpful with info prior to our arrival, and she and her family were gracious and hospitable throughout our stay. She was even kind enough to drop off some delicious soup she had recently discovered at a local Co-Op. (Thanks again for that, Cari.) The Guesthouse was perfect for our family of four, and exactly as described. The place was very clean. All of the beds - the main bed and the single bed in the Loft, as well as the pull-out sofa bed on the Main Floor - were very comfortable. The location was centrally located and ideal for us, as we were heading out to a wide variety of landmarks and destinations while in LA. Even parking our rental car was no problem once we understood the restrictions, and received instructions and a temporary parking permit from Cari. And one other treat was the lemon/lime/orange tree - you have to see it to believe it - in the backyard, from which we were encouraged to pick fresh fruit. Overall our experience with Cari and her family was ideal. They were generous with their time, and responsive to our needs and requests. And on top of that they were genuinely interesting people. The next time we visit LA we'll be sure to lock in our dates at the this "Cozy Secluded Guesthouse."
