The house is situated in a great location in the hills. The views of the city from the balconies are amazing and it's a short hike to Griffith's observatory from the house. The neighborhood itself is quiet and beautiful, with many interesting houses along the streets. It's a short drive to Hollywood or sunset boulevard and a short walk to hillhurst avenue, where you can find many good restaurants. Dianne is a great host and I would definitely recommend her place.
