You'll see from previous reviews how much everyone loves this place. It's beautiful, tasteful, the garden felt like fairyland. Amber was quick at replying and always helpful and understanding. Heaps of amenities for us to use, and I imagine that if you ran out of anything you could probably ask for a replacement. Right when we arrived she placed a new bottle of dishwashing liquid outside our door.
The main table is outside- underneath a gorgeous avocado tree that has a sweet resident squirrel- particularly cool if you're Australian or Kiwi and haven't seen a lot of squirrels ;). There are gorgeous lights strung up that mean you can eat there even if it's late at night (which we did). There is no indoor table, but they also have a little tray table on the bed to eat at, and a coffee table.
Great place for pets because there are solid fences, and fences between the little apartments as well.
Air conditioning was a LIFE SAVER in the heat wave. There's a couch in the main room that also acts as a bed, so on nights that the bedroom was a little hot we'd crash out there under the aircon (most of the year that wouldn't be an issue- we were there at pretty much the hottest temperatures of the year).
So many great cafes and shops within walking distance. We'd often walk to the reservoir and go for a run there- there's a lovely little park on one side which is super pretty and would be fun to take kids to. There's a grocery store right near the reservoir which we frequented because the kitchen at Amber's was AMAZING so we saved heaps of money by cooking each day! You could totally stay here long-term because of that.
Only small thing was that (as far as I could see) there was no iron or ironing board- but again, I wouldn't be remotely surprised if Amber had one on hand in another apartment that she could get you if you needed!
If we were to come to LA again, we'd definitely stay here if we could, and we'd recommend to friends.
