This was our first airbnb experience and I think we were very lucky to have James and In Ja as our hosts. I traveled with my family, including a 4-yr old toddler and we did have a very comfortable 2-night stay. Here are key things to note:
1) Hosts: wonderful; lots of interesting stories; extremely hospitable
2) Place: clean; all amenities available (sheets, pillows, blankets, towels, tissues, etc); outdoor deck was the best part - clear view of the Hollywood sign
3) Breakfast: awesome; filling; lots of variety;
4) Parking: convenient spot for 1 car
5) Neighborhood: fairly residential; quiet; family friendly; great location (10 min drive from Hollywood walk of fame);
Definitely recommended - if it fits your budget and is closer to the attractions in LA that you want to visit.
