Being a Chicago native moving to LA, my wife and I didn't know what to expect when booking our space. It's very hard to gauge a neighborhood and it's surrounding location from a computer. To sum it up, I'm not sure we could have been any luckier.

The Shasta Circle property is fantastic in every way. From the extremely modern appliances and furniture, to the location itself which couldn't be in a better location. It's situated at the mouth of a very beautiful and hilly nestled neighborhood. If you stay here, I implore that you talk nightly walks, the views that can be stumbled upon are impressive.

The property is more of a duplex which is great because you don't have to hear noise of upstairs/adjacent neighbors. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by Alejandra (our host) and her husband, who were both super friendly and accommodating. The space was uber clean and very warm and welcoming. It has everything you need and more to feel at home (and then some). Stainless steel range and oven, large basin kitchen sink, spacious french door refrigerator, front loading washer/dryer, LED TV with streaming channels and cable, dining nook + breakfast island. The property itself more than met our expectations and is perfect for anyone looking for a short or long stay.

Anytime we had a question, Alejandra was there to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. I'm not sure we could have had a better experience ( or will have) with a AirBnB host.

The location itself is perfect. You have access to many surrounding neighborhoods: Highland Park, Eagle Rock, Glassell Park, Atwater Village, Los Feliz, Glendale, Silver Lake, Echo Park, Glendale, Pasadena, and even Burbank. You can get to all of these places in 10 minutes or less.

After exploring most of LA and Orange County, we loved the area so much that we moved half a mile away!

After two months of actual living in Alejandra's space, it felt more like a vacation than a temporary residence. What could have easily been an uncomfortable experience in a new city, turned out to be literally quite the opposite.

A big thank you to Alejandra for being a wonderfully attentive host and letting us stay at her Shasta Circle property If you have the opportunity to book this location, I'd highly recommend it.
