I'm so happy I choose Gwen's place - it was PERFECT. It should be in an AirBNB ad! The location is wonderful and you feel immersed in Laurel Canyon, not a sterile LA hotel. It's beautifully decorated, very clean and well maintained, and full of thoughtful and helpful touches. She made great use of a smaller space and everything you might need is there. It was a quick drive to everywhere we wanted to go. She was very friendly and helpful. My only regret is that I didn't get to spend more time talking to her (I suspect she has great Laurel Canyon stories!) but I will definitely plan to return next time I'm in LA. Great value for your money, especially for LA.
