Above and beyond. The listing looked fantastic and then, to our delight, the place exceeded my expectations--felt even bigger and sunnier than the photos make it look. Our family of four did not feel like we were on top of each other at all. Loved the welcome/orientation email and note so we understood everything about the property immediately.

John communicated very well with us and checked in after 24 hours to make sure everything was going fine. For the middle of Hollywood, it is a pretty darn quiet neighborhood! There is foot traffic and a fair amount of cars, so you remember you're in the middle of a city, but the yard is a real secluded oasis. Street parking was easy at all times of day. Sleeping was cozy and quiet in the back of the unit.

On a personal note my family has multiple serious food/chemical allergies so we cannot eat at restaurants, so we always look for a workable kitchen and cross our fingers. WHAT A PLEASURE this kitchen was to use! Well provisioned with cookware, utensils, sharp knives, and some bonus herbs. If I'm honest it was more fun than cooking at home with the top-of-the-line appliances in the unit. If anyone else is like me and is allergic to fragrances/corn, please note that this unit is immaculate and very lightly fragranced. No air fresheners, no Febreeze overdose, candles, etc. If and when we return, I would try to book with John again in a heartbeat.
