To begin with I'd like to say that this was our best experience with Airbnb EVER! We had five nights in LA, and we're thinking about the place to stay, and fortunately found this wonderful family. Location is great, let me tell you why: this place is just in the center of the city, so it's pretty equal distention to any places of interest like Downtown LA, Santa-Monica, Hollywood, Beach Cities and so on, so it was like 15-20 mins by car and that was really cool! Especially by nighttime it took us like 5 mins to get to the Hollywood! The area is very clean, pretty well-off, there's no hood anywhere near this place so you feel really safe in any time of the day and at night. Of course if you stay in LA you obviously need a car, (distances are so huge that you can't cope without it and taxis would be too expensive) so we had no problem at all to park our car even at night - there're always plenty of spaces nearby the house.
Speaking about Tony and Carla - they are amazing, very intelligent and educated people. The way they met us, showed us everything, told us about the nice places to see in the city and in the LA area - was just perfect. Apart of the wonderful spacious and extremely clean room we were provided with just everything: we had a nice AC device in the room, which makes stay comfortable and you don't get too cold; they got us some beach towels and a beach bag, with some stuff for lying on the beach, they got us a coffee and tee machines in the room, so we could have some hot drinks any time - apart of that we had a bottled cold water complimentary too!! The bathroom was stunning: even though there's a drought in Cali, there was enough water to wash yourself and so on. They also provided us with nice towels, brushes for teeth, toothpaste, shower gels, medical kit with everything you might need there, even a shaving set with a nice shaving gel! Guys, we never got the same stuff in nice hotels in London or so!! The dryer and washing machines were in our disposal anytime with all the washing liquids and so on! It is just unbelievable! They really took care of us at the same time making our stay private and comfortable!
So if you're thinking about the place to stay and you have a car to drive - this is going to be your best choice so far and probably your best Airbnb experience you've ever had!
Thanks a lot, dear Tony and Carla!
