This was the first AirBnB for me and my wife and we really enjoyed it. It was fun to get to know Si, Sean and the family including the dogs (who were very charming hosts in their own unique ways). So much more personal than a hotel. The room was fine and there's a private door to the outdoor pool area for the warmer months. The house is very nice and the view from the rear is really beautiful. It's on a busy street (Sunset Blvd) which wasn't a problem, but if you're driving, be careful. All around, it's a great base for seeing the coastal areas of LA. We saw the Getty Villa, LACMA, Venice, Santa Monica, Hermosa Beach, Beverly Glen and Benedict Canyons, all via rental car, without feeling overwhelmed by the traffic except for those moments of weakness anyone might have on the 10 or 405. Had a great time and highly recommend Si, Sean and their house! BTW we especially enjoyed wandering Abbot Kinney Blvd in Venice and the Butcher's Daughter restaurant down there. Getty Villa also beautiful, interesting and peaceful.
