Mahasti was the perfect AirBnB hostess! In fact the entire experience of staying with her was simply fantastic. She's an excellent communicator with sophisticated, yet approachable interpersonal skills. She's completely accommodating, generous with her commitment to you as a guest, warm and super friendly. Just what I was looking for as a woman travelling alone in a new country. She is culturally very knowledgeable and was able to give me some great advice as to which galleries to visit - as I am an art buff. The accommodation is exactly as described and is very comfortable and quiet - I slept exceptionally well and appreciated the quality of everything she supplied. The linen and furnishings are six star! I walked down to Ventura a number of times and it's a quality and very safe neighbourhood to get around. The local cafes and restaurants are well worth a visit - Mahasti will point you in the right direction. I highly recommend staying at her place if you want to have a memorable time in LA. Thanks - you are definitely the hostess with the mostest!
