I was vacationing with my boyfriend- we stayed a week and rented a car. Our only travel challenge (and this could go for all of LA, I'm sure) was parking. If you're planning to drive, expect a little extra time when you return late-night. It was more common than not to find a spot blocks away and walk back to the house. Wasn't a deal breaker, though. We loved our stay and our hosts were hospitable and communicative. I told Meredith that we were going to a picnic/outdoor movie our first night and she left an extra blanket/sheet for us to use which was so kind of her- we'd book again! We were around the corner from coffee shops, shopping, a grocery store and we had a great stay. Thank you!
