This was a very convenient stay for my purposes, as the bus route comes right outside the home (Big Blue Bus #9), took me directly to where I was working and was a ~20min ride to Santa Monica. Ubers will also get you to Santa Monica for ~10$ and takes ~10-15mins.
Arezo’s parents appear to live in the main house and are welcoming and kind, but also respect privacy which was appreciated during my 3 week stay. The room & bed is comfortable, though friends looking to share should know that the shower is in the room (less than a metre from the bed) and has only a curtain separator, so it’s close quarters!
Overall my stay was hassle-free, enjoyable and very easy to coordinate, with Arezo being a lovely, reliable and efficient host. Thanks Arezo!
