After having to move out of my Hollywood apartment early due to a rodent infestation, it was such a relief to stay at Ines's super clean place, affordable and homey unit. I was a little thrown off during our initial phone call because I wasn't expecting a small deposit, but we did a proper short-term lease agreement (we both kept copies of it) and my deposit was returned as promised at the end of my stay. She merely wants to make sure the place is well-maintained and not trashed by occupants, which she clearly has done a good job of doing. I was given comfortable living space, access to the kitchen, my own bathroom, the privacy I like and could come and go as I please as long as I was quiet. I felt right at home and I was glad I choose her place to stay! I also love her friendly dog Jackie! And when I needed to stay an extra night at the last minute, Ines was super accommodating. And after I checked out and left something behind, she drove and dropped it off where I was. She goes the extra mile and is a great roommate. Worth every penny and I highly recommend her place.
