I had a great stay at Tony's house. The space is nice and private, and it's a great neighbourhood. Tony was very flexible on all matters, and - given that I'm sensitive to noise and heat - went out of his way to make sure that I was comfortable. Contact with his dogs is optional, but I loved spending time with them on my patio. Parking on the street was easy to find, and almost all amenities are within walking distance. I had a very hectic week in LA, and it was great to come home each day to comfort and privacy.
