Karina and Brian are well and truly super hosts. They went above and beyond in making sure were were warm in unseasonably cold weather in LA. They were also kind, responsive and generous..The apartment was spotlessly clean, quiet, well lit, well equipped and comfortable. Their guide to local restaurants was helpful. The distant view of the mountains was special. It was about a 20 minute walk to the shops at Santa Monica and about 10-15 minutes to the ocean so we were able to have time in LA without a car. Highly recommended.
