Helen is a great host and cares very much about keeping shared spaces clean for other people in the house (airbnb guests and Helen herself). She's very nice and a great source of information about LA and surrounding areas. She keeps a very safe and clean home. The house and room are very much identical to the images posted.
The house is in an okay neighborhood, not too great, but it's improving within the next few months with new developments.
Highly recommend!
