We had a wonderful homey stay at Rita's! Indeed she is a lovely host and I was really nervous, being my first airbnb experience. But Rita was very clear and helpful esp with a folder specially written as a guide to the do's and don'ts. She's extremely punctual so you know she will be there when she says so! Rita was also very thoughtful in keeping space in her fridge for our food, in case we bought stuff and needed to cook at weird times due to our jetlag. We really enjoyed chatting with her over breakfast of croissants and cupcakes - thanks Rita!

As for the room, it is definitely suited for the light traveller. The weather was really warm despite being winter so although I thought we wouldn't require air-conditioning, Rita was sweet to provide a fan for our use. The bed was soft and comfy. No issue with the shared bathroom, it was spacious and well equipped. Plenty of hot water although very rarely the water pressure was a little low.

Location wise, its very close by to the famous Pink's hot dogs which were delicious - must try! Its also about half hour walk to the famous Hollywood walk of fame and Chinese Theatre. From the front of her house, you could actually see the Hollywood sign from afar. Its also quiet and peaceful neighbourhood.

As for parking, we could park right in front of her house and everything was explained very clearly to us so we avoided any fines.

Would definitely recommend staying here.
