Anthea was a great host and her two lovely corgis made our stay even better! We stayed 8 days, that's a long time yet I still feel as if there's still so much to explore. She wasn't home when we arrived but her directions getting in the house was very clear and easy. Yes we still got a sweet welcoming from the corgis! Anthea was very responsive when we needed her about the metro and bus lines which was super helpful. We bussed almost everywhere. The shared bathroom and kitchen was awesome. She provides soap, shampoo, conditioner, and other essentials. The bed was very comfortable but be sure to bring an extra pillow! She only provides three pillows but I like a lot of fluffy pillows so if you're that person, remember to bring an extra one. Loved all the room table essentials: maps, things to do in LA books, and my favorite, her "What did you love doing in LA book" where you can read all about her past guests reflections about the real LA life. Overall very great first ever Airbnb stay! Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to explore LA!
