We needed a temporary home when we returned to LA after a few years abroad. While we waiting for our household goods to arrive so we could move back into our own house, we spent several weeks in this sweet house in West Hollywood. The owners have created a private, secure oasis on a very convenient tree-lined, residential street that’s within walking distance of two supermarkets and nice restaurant options.
The house itself is a smartly kept example of classic Los Angeles Spanish architecture from the style’s heyday a century ago — with an updated, well-equipped kitchen and two well-kept bathrooms, great central air conditioning and a lovely backyard that’s perfect for morning coffee, a drink in the evening or just lazying in a very large hammock. This is an attractively furnished home, with great wifi btw, that’s been well cared for. We had an opportunity to meet one of the owners who couldn’t have been nicer — and more responsive to our quirky requests. (She even shared a couple of prized resources we could take with us: a dietician for our dogs and clever handyman who’ll be a big help around our own house of a similar era.)
If we need temporary accommodation again, we would not hesitate to return. Thanks for the lovely hospitality!
