Cari was a wonderful host and I very much enjoyed my stay in her home.
Cari's home is located in a very quiet Beverly Hills neighborhood and is conveniently located across from Roxbury Park. It is walking distance to a variety of grocery stores and restaurants, which was ideal since I am very much a novice/inconsistent chef.
The place was also really clean (thanks, in part, to the generous work of Cari's cleaning lady, Esmarelda, who showed up every couple of weeks). And Cari provided plenty of space in the kitchen for me to store any food I bought.
On top of all of this, Cari was respectful of my space and privacy during my stay, and was at the same time an amazingly friendly and helpful host. She has an extensive knowledge of the area and was always willing to provide recommendations re: best places to see/do in LA.
I would highly recommend to anyone considering spending any amount of time in LA to stay with Cari if possible!
