Becky is incredibly responsive as a host, responding to messages quickly, even later at night. The house was clean and lovely, with a beautiful kitchen, washer and dryer, mini-split ACs/heat in each room, comfortable couch, and comfortable beds. The little details, like providing a toothbrush holder in the bathroom, and little trash cans in each bedroom are great. There were even travel kits with toothbrushes with toothpaste in the bathroom for us.
The house was as the pictures showed (though the couch has been upgraded to also have a chaise section, which was better for us, more space to spread out our legs!). We stayed for nearly a week, and found the neighbors and dogs are sometimes a bit loud during the day, and you can definitely hear the outside through the walls, but when night time rolls around, everything is quiet (except some small amount of highway noise, but that falls into the background, and is expected, given being in the city), and the beds are comfy. The house is located about half a mile from the Foothills Transit buses, so fairly convenient for wandering into the city without a car... I won't call it fast to get into and out of the city, because LA is very big, but definitely convenient for those who use public transit.
For checkout, we were asked to clean any dishes we used, but there were no other things we needed to do upon checkout, like strip the beds, or take out the trash--those all get handled by the cleaners, so overall, pretty straightforward for checkout.
I'd definitely stay here again if I'm ever back in town and this place is available!
