I have stayed in LA at Moon's apartment for ten days, the place is not far from the beach, you can take a bus number 2 and it takes you right to the Santa Monika Pier with a lot of entertainments. Shops are nearby and I was allowed to use host's discounts at the nearest shops.
Moon is an amazing host, she is kind, attentive, sweet. When I asked her to bring me a heater, her friend brought it right at the same evening, nights are cold in December. The room with a fireplace is always warm though.
Moon has done a lot of remodeling in her apartment (changed a floor, fixed doors etc) and she is still adding more remodeling so home has been changed a lot.
I would recommend the place.
Thank you dear Moon.
