Toni's place comes as advertised and she really is a super host. Located on a quiet residential street, this is a perfect spot for those who want somewhere that feels like home while exploring LA. The unit is attached to their home with a private entrance and yard. The unit is clearly new, with a great over sized shower and new appliances. It is well stocked for kitchen/washroom essentials including beach towels and there is a shopping complex with a CVS pharmacy and Pavilions (grocery) that is a 10-15 minute walk away. The neighborhood feels safe and we never felt uncomfortable walking around at night.
Due to the sheer size of greater LA, I would recommend this place to anyone renting a car or using Uber/Lyft. If you do not intend to use a vehicle or like being right in the craziness it may not be the place for you. We enjoyed spending our evenings on the beach by Santa Monica Pier or checking out the trendy Abbot Kinney Blvd in Venice. Both are less than a 15 minute drive away.
Toni was quick to respond and will answer any questions about the area. She accommodated our special request on short notice. She just asks that you treat her neighborhood and home with respect and follow the house rules
