After a long week of business travel, I decided to stay 2 days in LA. I lucked out when I found Mehran's place available on the days that I wanted to stay there. The location is absolutely amazing (Celebrity tours ride past the house all day!). And the view from the patio is breathtaking. Seriously, I spent time on the patio every day that I was there. While I did not take a dip in the pool or hot tub, there were other guests there taking advantage of the pool and hot tub, and they all said that the water was great!
Some things to note:
** For the price, this is definitely a win. Again, the scenery alone made it worth the stay.
** There is no AC (at least not in my room), but the truth is I did not need it. With the screen door open, I got a wonderful breeze in the room. Also, he provides fans. Between the cool breeze, and the fan, I was very comfortable in the room.
** While they provide towels, I would recommend bringing your own. Some reviews complained about moldy towels. The towels in my room were clean and fresh --- but based on the other reviews, it just made sense to bring your own.
** The wifi worked perfectly. AND they have Roku in the room, which was great! I was able to catch up on shows I missed when I returned to the room at night.
** One of the coolest features was the natural sunlight in the bathroom in the Venice room. I thought the light was on, and was trying to figure out how to turn it off before I left out on the first day. When I came back, I realized that it had been natural sunlight coming in.
** In my room (I'm not sure if all of the rooms are this way), there was a note that you could not flush toilet paper down the toilet. They provided a covered trash can right by the toilet, but that was a bit inconvenient. Hopefully, the plumbing issue will be resolved soon.
** As a woman traveling alone, safety is a top priority. I felt extremely safe on his property.
** Mehran's customer service was great!! He was very responsive, courteous, and answered all of my questions prior to my arrival. As a result, I didn't need to reach out to him during my stay. I only texted him to let him know that I arrived, loved the view, and was checking out.
Overall, I am so glad that I chose Mehran's place!
