Gretje is an amazing host! The apartment is above the garage and the area is in a very safe neighborhood in the hills. I'm a self-proclaimed germ-o-phobe and this place was impeccably clean. The entire apartment is extremely cozy and there's a lot of cute touches, for example, I appreciated the large bottles of water and breakfast foods in the fridge. The bathroom is stocked with toiletries and the kitchenette has everything you need to cook. The internet was very fast as well which is a great! The location is great with access to South Pasadena and a good distance from other places in LA, there's also a metro station close by. My friend and I didn't bring a car but we had no trouble getting around. I would definitely stay here again when I come to LA again!
