My husband and I rented Jamie’s space for a month. The neighborhood is very walkable. The LA River is less than a mile away, with a wonderful bike and walking trail, coffee shops, and tennis courts. A hike in nearby Elyrian Canyon has spectacular views. Jamie was a friendly, responsive host, and immediately remediated a couple of small issues. The unit is a great size for two people and the kitchen is well-equipped including a surprisingly spacious freezer. There is a closet, but clothing storage for a longer stay is limited.

Potential renters should know that there are 27 steep steps - a common feature of houses in this hillside neighborhood. Also, the footsteps of the upstairs restless tenants were annoying and at times kept us awake. Jamie has made an effort to decrease the effect with rugs upstairs but may simply be a feature of the construction. There was one incident at 3 in the morning, but the tenants spontaneously apologized & sent flowers.
