My partner and I stayed with Jill for approximately two weeks in the second bedroom at her place while we looked for a sublet in the city. The location was good for us because we had a car and there was free, secure, underground parking which was a major plus. It may be a wee bit out of the way for people who are new to LA and really want to do a lot of touristy things, but I trust Jill when she says that there was ample public transportation. There are two grocery stores and a Starbucks about five minutes walking distance if you want a coffee or to make your own food.

As for the apartment itself, upon arrival Jill had cereals, gum, milk, some chocolate and other small snacks available, which I think is fantastic for short term guests who may want a quick bite to eat before heading out to explore the city. She also has cute signs all over the place indicating where the plates, utensils, trash etc. are.

We think the best match for Jill are people who are willing to put extra effort into maintaining a clean space. She likes things really clean. We always strive to respect people's spaces when we're staying with them, but we know not everyone is willing to put that extra work in. However you certainly won't experience any AirBnB horror stories of coming to a filthy, smelly apartment and paying for it.

I think the only things that may be unclear in the posting are how big the bedroom with the twin bed and air mattress is (we were pleasantly surprised that it fit a desk AND had walking space), and the bathroom sink is in the hallway. It might be kind of strange for people to wash their hands and brush their teeth in a hall, but we didn't find it to be a problem. Jill was rarely around so it's not like she's standing around watching you :P

Jill is quiet, considerate, respectful, and very sweet. She was always attentive to our needs and even asked us if anything seemed misleading about her posting at the end of our stay. Great space for a good price! I would definitely recommend it!
