We chose Kristina's home for a Christmas trip away with our five year-old son (to Disneyland and other area sights). The location was perfect for everything we wanted to do and the walk streets and nearby canals were so charming and perfect for walks. Proximity to the beach was a plus too. The house itself is also charming and quiet in the middle of L.A. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for meals and Ralph's and Whole Foods are both nearby for groceries. Overall, it was an adorable and comfortable home with great books, art, games, and everything needed to enjoy a bit of downtime. Our hosts were warm and responsive as well. We would stay here again without a doubt!
