The pictures don't begin to do justice to this gorgeous house. The patio with the big avacado tree is so beautiful. There are two other side patios, the one off the kitchen was my favorite place to have my morning coffee under the lemon tree. Joe and John were helpful when we needed, but otherwise just leave you to enjoy your stay. They contact you very promptly if you message them. There are tons of places within walking distance. We rented a car since we needed to drive to Disney and Venice beach and the parking was right out front. The house has absolutely everything you might need and as a bonus they left us coffee, waters and wine when we arrived. Another unexpected treat was the adorable little hummingbirds that visited their feeder right outside the kitchen windows in the morning. If we ever visit LA again I would absolutely book this room again. We traveled with two teenage girls and there was plenty of room for all 4 of us, and the added benefit of separate rooms to retreat to when any of us needed a nap or to read a book. Thanks again John for a wonderful visit to LaLa Land!
