We LOVED our stay with Lisa, Phil and Kuma! Great neighborhood, nice house, very comfortable bedroom and bathroom. Great location (!!!) if you want to explore Santa Monica, Venice, Hollywood, downtown etc. restaurants within a walkable distance. Lisa put together a very extensive guide to LA, including restaurants and things to do in different parts of the city. It was soooo helpful! Lisa and Phil are very friendly and went above and beyond to help us have a great time in LA. Kuma is one of the sweetest dogs I've ever seen. Great place to stay!!
