What can I say about Azita, her husband, the apartment and the location that would do the experience justice? I just completed the most incredible summer of my life thanks to this listing. Azita is one of the kindest people I have ever met. Not only did she invite me and my girlfriend for authentic Persian cuisine one Friday night, she was always concerned about our stay, from offering us an extra fan to opening the garage whenever we needed access to extra space. The location is perfect, close to a laundromat, less than ten minutes' drive from the beach, and close to Santa Monica and Wilshire without the sounds of any cars. It's a peaceful place, serene, comfortable, cozy, and to use Azita's perfectly employed adjective, charming. The light in the afternoon shines through the vines of the backyard and fills the apartment in a golden glow, and when you open the curtains in the bedroom and the screens in the sitting room, you feel you're sitting in a treehouse with the sea breeze brushing your hair. There was no better feeling than waking up in this magical place every morning and being able to come home to it at the end of a busy day amongst the rush and sprawl of LA. Here we were able to find peace and serenity. A beautiful, beautiful place, hosted by wonderful people.
