The host maintains an impeccably clean and quiet place. On rare occasion you could tell when a guest had left something below the standard of cleanliness the host expects but the host seemed to address that quickly.
The availability of laundry machines is very helpful and the hosts even folded my laundry shortly after the dryer was finished - while this isn't something a guest should expect it goes to show that they keep track of how things are being used and keep things orderly.
The location is very good, but particularly if you have a car rental and need to visit the downtown LA area, the valley, and Orange County - rush hour isn't too difficult from this vicinity.
Towels and bed were perfectly clean. My room had a private entrance - overall there was a strong sense of privacy in this particularly room but it seems that would be the case with the rest of the rooms too.
Hosts are very friendly, Jonathan is conversational and very organized and keen to help guests out. A very good deal.
