Cesca and her family were very accommodating. I had a late flight into LAX and she made the check in process very easy. I felt comfortable and safe the entirety of my trip. The neighborhood is quiet, but near everything!! It was nice to return to a quiet bed each evening. The studio itself has a full kitchen stocked with pots, pans, etc. I didn't cook, but i did use the full size fridge/freezer and microwave for icecream and my left overs :) The studio is a very nice mini-house :) I spent my last evening vegging out and watching movies on TV :) Convenient parking options and loads of places to each nearby! :)
