Victoria and Dodie's place is stunning and I highly recommend staying here. The place is beautifully decorated, peaceful in its surrounds, and has everything you would want for a stay. Victoria and Dodie have thought of everything that you might need on your travels and provide a lot of small kitchen staples and toiletries that you might need, and plenty of books, DVDs and games to keep you entertained if you are staying in. It's a short drive to / from LAX but despite the proximity to the airport I wasn't bothered by plane noise at all. Depending on the wind direction, and your sensitivity you may hear the planes and be bothered by them but I was expecting to and wasn't. There are some great cafes within easy walking distance (assuming you have a base level of fitness - 20 mins each way?) or easy drive. There are a few very easy to navigate steps to get down to the unit - it certainly was no hassle but if you have mobility issues and a lot of luggage just be aware of this. The bed is probably the most comfortable I've ever slept in away from home. I would absolutely stay here again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. Thank you for a great stay!
