it was a last minute booking and andy accomodated us with her fast response. very clean house. too bad it was not that warm to dip into the pool. little stuff that you may need in the kitchen-- she has it available (just double check the pantry before buying). close to grocery and restaurants incase of out of the blue cravings. felt really safe in the area since we are from SF and don't have an idea of the area in LA.
