The studio is in a lovely neighborhood. I enjoyed walking (and jogging) around the streets in this area, which feels quiet and safe. It's well connected, even if you're not driving. It's a short walk from a big grocery store and some decent places to eat and drink, etc, and I was able to walk to the UCLA campus without much trouble. I was able to get further afield easily with buses and Ubers. Nima is a friendly and responsive host – she is quick to reply to messages, check-in was very easy, and she let me leave my bags after checking out on the final day, which was extremely helpful. The studio itself is clean and comfortable. The kitchen appliances are slightly old, perhaps, but everything was functional, and I had no problems during my stay. Recommended.
