Matt is a great host, very responsive to every need, and helpful with suggestions and recommendations. Nice to find fruit, snacks, milk,tea and coffee already stocked as well as bathroom sundries. Excellent location if you plan to be visiting all areas of LA. Easy parking just out front. As studio is tucked behind the main house it's very quiet at night. I did not make use of it but there is a very large backyard patio with lounges, table, chairs, etc.
