Our host was fantastic from the first contact -- friendly, welcoming and efficient. He accommodated our request on the key exchange which was greatly appreciated and made it easy. Our visit to L.A. was enhanced by staying in this private, quiet and spacious Pied a Terre situated in the back garden of our host's home in Pacific Palisades, which is a delightful beach town in West L.A. close to hiking, West Hollywood, and Santa Monica. Street parking was easy. The space was exactly as pictured only better, the bed comfortable, lots of room, a clean new bathroom, beautiful wood floors and downtown was an easy 2 minute walk. Coffee bars (including a Starbucks), juice bars, breakfast, lunch, pharmacy and grocery store all at the ready. There is also a lovely garden with an outdoor table and chairs for sitting outside and relaxing; and the best thing is the private entrance. The location is excellent -- right off Sunset, less than a mile to Pacific Coast Hwy. We enjoyed meeting and talking with our hosts and will definitely stay here again! Thanks Julian!
