Abba Casa is a Tuscan dream in the center of LA. Go in the magical entrance through the hedge to a rose garden lit by fairy lights, up the steps to the carved wooden front door. The spiral staircase in the entry is surrounded by art and lit by a chandelier. The chic and cozy living room with great books and art is centered around a fireplace. THEN THE KITCHEN. Possibly the best kitchen anywhere ever. two huge marble counters, radiant heat marble floors. Every window and door opens into the garden where sunshine and the fragrance of jasmine mix with bird song. Upstairs on the second and third floors the bedrooms are private and separate, sheets and towels clean and comfortable, bathrooms designed beautifully with great water pressure. There is a sunroom/tv /casual living room on the second floor that is possibly the best family room ever. the backyard is lit with lights, has space heaters, the kitchen has everything any chef could need. The location is actually the secret best place to stay(live!) in LA- so easy to get everywhere- but you definitely need a car. We were three grown ups and two teenagers and had plenty of space, could not have been a better stay! Ben is great and everything was super clear and very easy!
