This Airbnb experience was definitely one of the best ones. The host gave us a warm welcome right from the beginning. He gave us a quick tour of the place upon arrival and everything was clean and as pictured. The family was always available in case we had any questions or needed anything. If you're new to LA, just know that this is in the valley, which means you have to take the freeway to get to downtown, santa monica, hollywood and other tourist spots. Traffic is heavy on the daily, so make sure to give yourself enough time, 45 min to 1 hr, to go anywhere..especially during rush hour. You're definitely going to feel like an LA local staying at this place. There's a lot of great food places and malls close by, and you can just take the side streets, won't take you longer than 10-20 min. Overall, great host and we loved our whole stay!
