Cristina was a great host, very responsive, attentive, and good insights on where to go if you are new to the area. The place itself is a great location, less than 15 minutes to venice beach and restaurants. The only problem that I had was the wifi speeds. If having fast internet or a LAN based connection is a must have for you, than this place might not be the best fit. But overall I had a great time and the place fulfilled all of my needs.
