Alice is a great host, very responsive. The house is a lovely bungalow in a quiet, residential neighborhood. I stayed for a month, and appreciated how it quickly felt like home. Because it was residential, it was great for morning runs around the neighborhood. There isn't much that is walking distance, however, except for one great cafe, Undergrind. But there is a lot to do that is only a short drive away.

The one thing worth noting is that there are instructions to not flush anything down the toilet (nothing). There is a covered trash can, so it's all very sanitary, but i could imagine this being a turn off for some people. The shower head is also mounted at about 5 feet, so if you are tall, this might not be the most pleasant experience.

All in all, though, the kitchen is lovely, the bed is SUPER comfortable, and I was able to spend many days enjoying the house and LA.
