Houston was the perfect host! She makes herself available as much as or as little as you need, always reachable via email/text. We had a minor issue (outside light not working) and it was fixed immediately.
Apt is not anyone's regular home, but a separate unit from their main house, so is pretty tidy. It has everything you'd need for a short stay (from toiletries to kitchen utensils to ample closet/hanger space) with great modern/minimalist design. Bedroom (with full size bed) and shower were a bit small, but no major issue.
Great location in Silverlake, short walk or drive to the main drag on Sunset, but in a nice, quiet residential area with ample parking. We had a pleasant stay there!
