1. Leah is a very kind and gracious host. Having stayed in about half a dozen or more Airbnb’s in this area, Leah is the only one who made a point to welcome me personally.
2. I have lived and worked through many places in the Los Angeles area, and I am especially familiar with this area. This particular airbnb location is very desirable for a number of reasons: a) it is very quiet; very little if any street noise; b) this is a safe neighborhood if you come in very late at night; c) there is fantastic hiking within a short walk of this home; d) this house is very accessible to the 210 freeway and the Rose Bowl, JPL, Pasadena, and La Canada.
3. Note that this is not a high-end airbnb. There is one bathroom for the guests, and that may mean that you have to wait a little bit to use it. But the bathroom was always clean.
4. This bedroom—JPL green room—has plenty of room for one person, a very large closet, a comfortable bed, and a quite functional work space.
