My husband, I, and our two teen boys stayed with Eleanor for six nights over our Canadian March Break. She has a very lovely home and made every effort to make us feel welcome during our time in LA. Even though the entrance to her apartment area is through the back porch area of the home, she was discreet and clearly sensitive to our privacy. It was a wonderful retreat to come back to at the end of a busy tourist day and within easy walking distance of several good restaurants that we had scoped out when planning our trip. Being so close to the beach was a real plus and we would recommend Eleanor and her home to anyone! Thanks Eleanor!!
