We had to quickly find a place to stay for three months during a remodel (with two kids and two cats no less) and we booked Francia's place based on location, photos, and reviews, but we were nervous because we couldn't actually see it until the day we moved in. Would it be too small? Would it be run-down? We needn't have worried—the house was everything it was advertised to be, and more. There's clearly pride of ownership here, and Francia has gone to great lengths to squeeze every bit of functionality out of the space and make sure that every design choice was made for maximum comfort and adorability. It's obvious that she cares a great deal about this house, and about her renters' experience. Whether it was allowing us to pick and choose which furniture she brought in, or welcoming us using some of our own, Francia went out of her way to make sure we had the configuration that made the most sense for us. Our kids felt right at home, and so did we. In addition to the coziness and cleanliness of the place, the immaculately maintained outdoor patio with porch swing and hammock became a family-favorite hanging spot. On top of all of this, Francia is super sweet and very responsive. On the rare occasion that something went wrong, like a plumbing issue, she was right on top of it and got it fixed that day without a second thought. And when we did something not-so-great as tenants, like breaking a lamp, overloading the washing machine, or not realizing that our cats were doing some extracurricular scratching of furniture, Francia was compassionate and reasonable and kind. Whether you're a local who needs a temporary rental, or a visitor to LA who wants someplace clean, comfortable, and conveniently located as a home base during your trip, you absolutely can't go wrong with this property.
