We booked this about 1 month before and even then we had the feeling that this was THE right choice. Jen was very quick to respond questions and we made us feel very welcome.

We didn't use provided driving instructions because we had a GPS that took care of that.

The appartment/studio is excactly like described.

Even though it is only a few meters to a heavily trafficked road, the surroundings make both audible and visual noise no problem at all. We were more bothered of the AC than traffic :)

The neighbourhood is friendly. In our home country (Norway) no-one says 'Hi' to you when walking in the street. We had enjoyable chats with the locals when walking around in the park across the street.
Quiet, safe and friendly place.

We never met Jen in person (she does not live in the house) but chatted via AirBnb and SMS (cell text message). All questions were answered in about no-time.
We talked a lot with her father. He was a very interesting person and a simple question from us led to a 20 min chat about everything else. A very nice person :)

When we sometime revisit LA, we know where to check for availability first.
