David’s home honestly offered us the perfect West LA experience. Stylish and yet understated, spacious, well equipped, and it’s in the perfect location – close enough to everything we needed, but secluded enough to guarantee parking and respite from the tourists and hipsters! The house is perfectly laid out – full bedrooms with great closet space and unbelievably comfortable beds. The house offers numerous separate comfortable spaces to choose from to make sure we could all come together for meals and socializing, but had a choice of beautifully laid out options to retreat to if we were looking for downtime or privacy. The outdoor area is also great – we loved the fire pit. With a well equipped kitchen perfectly integrated into the house, and great grocery and speciality food stores virtually on our doorstep, to our own surprise we chose to stay in for many more meals than I would have expected. Our past experience has been that our rentals have been at best a good base but this is the first time we’ve genuinely felt like the rental has been a huge part of the vacation experience. David is a consummate host – the perfect balance between being available to address any needs but allowing to feel like we “owned” the house and could literally make it our own for the duration of our stay. We’re looking forward to our next LA visit, and won’t hesitate to stays at David’s place again.
