I didn't get to meet Kate but she was a very communicative and accommodating host. The place was very stylish and spacious with lots of natural light and perfect for two. The bed was cozy and comfortable but — it's nestled upstairs with a low ceiling so you'll have to be mindful about hitting your head. It's in a great location - pretty much in the middle of LA. We enjoyed our stay with no issues, I would definitely come back again.
