Kathy was an extremely helpful and gracious host. We were delayed on our way into LA, and she made sure to contact us to let us know about the house and parking. During our time at the house, Kathy and her son were always there to help us out if we needed anything. My dad had to stay at the house beyond the check-out time, and Kathy made sure that he was comfortable. The neighborhood is also great, especially if you want to be close to the beaches (the Dockweiler State Beach is close by and relatively uncrowded). Overall, a very comfortable 5-day stay!
