The place is as advertised. I enjoyed it very much, the area is very safe and centrally located. No more than 30 or 40 minutes to all major attractions in LA. Driving up and down Beverly Hills everyday was fun. Lots of beautiful homes, tree-lined-wide streets, manicured lawns, and flowers everywhere. Easy access to dining and entertainment. The main reason for my stay was to visit the Getty Center and the Getty Villa, both of which are within easy driving distance. I did not meet the owner, but her e-mail communications were on point and helpful.
