We arrived at Alison's place with loads of boxes and suitcases, as we had to vacate our own house nearby due to work being done there. We had plenty of space to stow away everything in the closets. The studio is really spacious and we had a lovely time sitting at the patio table for meals and homework, enjoying the beautiful view (especially the sunset!). Alison is a super kind and considerate host, the perfect mix of being right there when we needed something, while otherwise we enjoyed our privacy. Since we live in the neighborhood, we can testify to this being a top location for any activities in LA from the beach to the mountains, and easy travel to both Disneyland in the South and Santa Barbara in the North.
