Ines was really friendly and welcoming. She was able to make suggestions when we requested and was flexible with our arrival time. The house is within a 15 minute walk to grocery stores, restaurants, and pharmacies. There is parking in the drive way but if you don't have a car, Uber is really popular, inexpensive and useful in the Los Angeles area. We were able to get to the beach within 10 minutes using Uber. The location is in a quiet, cozy neighbourhood which is a nice change from the busy, loud city. Definitely would recommend staying with Ines!
