My wife and I had an excellent experience at Tanja's place. The apartment itself was as advertised - a comfortable and intimate little apartment set off from the main house by a yard (there was a nice orange tree right outside our front door as well as a large rosemary bush). The place was well equipped and quiet. Tanja was also an excellent host - getting into and out of the place was easy and she left us some nice treats to begin the New Year.

The neighborhood, Valley Village - worked well for us - we were already familiar with the area and took advantage of the inexpensive restaurants that are nearby. While the area is definitely suburban we were able to get around via mass transit and uber - and with the occasional help of a car-owning relative who lives nearby. Its a about a mile walk to the metro.

Nice stay overall -we would def return....
