I've been to LA dozens of times but have never been able to experience it the way I did on this trip. Staying at Jude's beautiful apartment tucked up in the hills made me feel like a real Angeleno, not a tourist with a star map. Her apartment was clean, comfortable and a real treat for an architecture enthusiast. I never would have discovered this super cool neighborhood had I not had the pleasure of staying with Jude. She was unbelievably accommodating and made me a true airbnb convert on my first trip...I'll never stay in a hotel again!
