Wow! We had a fabulous time at Eve and Todd's amazing backyard apartment and spacious outdoor garden. It made our stay in LA really fun. Convenient location. Very private. A lovely, quiet spot to retreat to after a day of sightseeing or beach going.
The indoor spaces include one large, romantic living area with loads of cozy couches/daybeds piled with pillows, a queen bed enclosed in gauzy drapes, a table and chairs and even a piano!. They call it "The Barn." (The pictures with the garage-style door up don't do it justice. With the door down it makes a wonderful, comfortable sanctuary.) A separate building houses another double bedroom, and the bathroom, as well as a washer and dryer dedicated to the apartment's use - a real plus. AC throughout. Really comfy beds. We were 4, but there's more than enough room for 6.
The outdoor space has a well-equipped covered kitchen and several distinct gathering spaces. Everyone's favorite spot was the swinging chair suspended from an enormous tree. We easily prepared breakfasts and meals in the kitchen: a grill, two-burner stove, small fridge, dish washer, and every small appliance and gadget you may need. The makings for tea and French press coffee provided, and selections for breakfast to start us off. Dine outside en plein air, outdoors under cover, or inside under the Moroccan chandelier.
Hosts are attentive and respond quickly to messages, at the same time offering us complete privacy. The wi-fi is excellent. Street parking is plentiful.
If you're looking for a marvelous, artsy place in LA, we could't recommend Todd and Eve's home more highly.
