WeHo is a great area of LA, boasting a vibrant and diverse culture with a bohemian edge.

I didn't get to meet Denise, but she was so helpful in recommending places of specific interest to me (architecture, for instance), which I really appreciated.

Denise's apartment is perfectly located between Sunset and Santa Monica Boulevards. Admittedly, many locations require quite a walk (as is common in LA), so if you don't mind walking and/or have a car, you'll be fine. Taxis are readily available, reliable and suitable for nearby areas.

What a comfort it was, to experience a key-less, hassle-free check-in, and be greeted with a kitchen stocked with provisions to tide us over until we could get to a nearby Trader Joe's.

- The apartment is more spacious than it appears in the photographs!
- Premises is clean and tastefully decorated
- WI-FI is blazingly fast
- The lounge and dining areas are great for relaxing
- Lots of choices on the TV
- The shower has plentiful hot water, with great water pressure
- There were numerous fluffy towels in the bathroom - a big plus!
- THE BEDS ARE SO COMFORTABLE - you'll think you're sleeping on a cloud
- The fragrance in the garden area at the back of the premises is divine: sweet and citrus-y. (One evening when doing the laundry, I noticed a bucket of chalk on a table I the rear garden, and a hopscotch game drawn on the concrete. It felt really nice to be living among locals).

Tips:
- Ensure you have lots of the coins for the washer/dryer in the laundry
- There is so much to see and do in LA, but make sure you allocate plenty of time to walk around this fantastic neighbourhood. Dog lovers will be rewarded with sightings of lots of beautiful pooches being taken for walks.
