I'd like to start by saying that the whole experience at Jen's place was awesome. Me, the wife and two daughters stayed for more than two weeks and had a great time, we surely miss it. I was impressed the first time we entered the room. We just came off a 21 hour flight and it was everything an exhausted traveller could ever wish for, a nice stylish, clean, cozy and welcoming room. I had to arrive a couple of hours earlier than the normal check in time but it was no problem for the host. The place was ready to receive me and the family.

I never had a problem with anything because everything that we needed was already provided. There was some food and snack in the fridge, fresh towels, fast wireless internet, Satellite TV and a laundry area that we used several times during our stay. We had our own private access gate and patio with seating; one thing that we will never have in a hotel at that price, true value for the money. My wife normally experiences back problems with hotel beds but never did have a complaint from the one in the room, she loved it.

The park in front of the house is peaceful and family friendly especially for the kids. There are two children play grounds, a basketball court, two tennis courts, long pathways for jogging and family tables with barbeque grills on the side. Parking for my rental car was never a problem. We found a good Chinese restaurant not more than a mile from the place and enjoyed it.

Jen's Dad (John) is a great host, he went out of his way to help me with everything that we needed to start up our stay in L.A. He knew where to get the best deals on car rentals, GPS, mobile phones etc. We had long interesting conversations, morning walks at the park across the street and had a good laugh on a lot of thing. I will miss the morning walks in the park with him and his dog Nina.

Finally, your reading this down to the end because you want to know if your need as a family, couple or as an individual will be satisfied during your stay. All I can say is that going by the high ratings and the positive comments of others who truly experienced a non-stressful stay in this place, you can never go wrong. In fact, we are already planning a comeback…
