We had a pleasant stay at Ella's house. It was exactly as described and the house was well maintained. The house is not in the safest neighborhoods in LA but did not have any issues. I understand water is scarce in LA but the water pressure in bathrooms is a bit too low even just for washing hands. Some grilling tools (tongs, scissors, cleaning brush) were not available so we had to buy some of the tools ourselves. Other than that, we really enjoyed staying at this house and our kids really liked it!
