We liked the look of Heidi's place when we booked for week but it exceeded our expectations. The space is suberb – light, airy, clean and modern – and the structure itself is ingenious, stylish and comfortable.
Check in and out was simple, Heidi was a great host, with instant, cheery communication at all times, and when we arrived there was fruit, yoghurt, granola, coffee and tea waiting for us. WiFi and TV were great, and indoors and outdoors – where there are two great swing chairs – it was a pleasure to hang out.
Add to that an ultra-comfy bed! We visited as a couple but had a friend over for two nights and the sofabed was a success too.
We'd had visits to central and west LA before but Highland Park was new for us – it's a great area, cool and laidback, with plenty of eating places and some good bars at night, some with live music, on York Blvd. Quick to get into LA but also extremely handy for us as we were visiting Santa Anita to the east for the Breeders' Cup.
Can't recommend Heidi's place enough – as another reviewer said, even better than the pictures. And also serene as advertised!
