The apartment was everything that we expected - spacious, well laid out and fantastic views. We liked the fact that is was off the beaten track, despite the long windy narrow uphill roads leading to it. We also liked the fact that it was only a short walk to get brilliant views of the Hollywood sign, in areas that were away from the tour bus crowds.

We found the information file and leaflets very useful, particularly the map of the trails leading to the Hollywood sign.

Robert was the perfect host, approachable and available if needed but left us to enjoy our holiday. We had our own allocated parking area and were able drive in and out whenever we wanted, and had our own access to the guest house via the locked side gate.

There was a lot of construction work going on with the villa next door and we were woken nearly everyday at 7am by hammering and drilling, but this did not detract our enjoyment as we wanted to be up early to make the most of each day.

The only negative thing we would say is that we found the roads and freeways in LA were atrocious, but this obviously had nothing to do with our accommodation.
