Aaron superbly oriented me to the apartment and the neighborhood. He also very conscientiously offered the use of his car parking pass (and the weekend LA Times!). The place is very cute and perfectly located, with a health food store and a delicious coffee spot just 2 minutes away. There was an added bonus to staying at Aaron's: he has this really sweet, large photo of his mother on the side of the fridge and, frankly, she's got an excellent vibe that you can tell flows throughout the apartment. One reason to love staying in an AirBNB is to be among people; even if they're not in the apartment themselves, I find it gratifying to spend time in their living space. And this was definitely a very positive, happy experience to spend time in Aaron's apartment. PS The kitchen and bathroom are super cute!
