Marina was a gracious and perfect host. Check in was easy as Marina was there to greet and show me the place. We discovered during the check in process that the remote control for the heater was missing and hence, I could not use the heater that night. Generally LA never gets down to the 40s but the weekend I was there the city was experiencing frigid weather. Mariana literally went to several different stores to pick up a portable heater for me but they were completely sold out. To resolve the issue, Mariana had her son bring his own portable heater to the rental property, which was super helpful as it kept the place warm and toasty. The pictures of the listing are very accurate and the location is excellent. There was a guest staying at the upper who woke us up early one morning because of the noise. I got in touch with Marina and the issue was quickly resolved without any fuss. This place is a great value for your money. Thank you Marina!!!
