An excellent place to stay! The area feels totally safe in every respect. We got access to a whole house, with easy parking in the driveway. The house itself is spacious, with great aircon in all rooms, and with near new kitchen- and washroom-appliances. In the back there is an enclosed yard with a lawn, which should be perfect for guests bringing pets. Indoors, everything is super clean and well kept. Beds are comfortable. The bedroom in the front lies closest to the street, with a little traffic noise leaking in, but super sensitive people then choose the other bedroom which is totally quiet. The host was very forthcoming and communicative, and provided clear instructions so that our settling in was a breeze. We highly and warmly recommend this alternative to anyone planning to stay in LA - great value for money!
