We stayed for three nights with Toktam and her small well-behaved dog.
Toktam is an exceptionally warm, helpful, respectful, and generous
host who really treated us like family.

The one-bedroom and loft apartment is on a fairly quiet street. There
was parking available right out front when we arrived at 10:30p, and
Toktam met us outside to help take our bags up the stairs to the main
level. The unit is spacious and air-conditioned, and was
well-maintained and clean.

We had full use of the kitchen, which has a gas range/oven,
refrigerator, microwave, and rice cooker. Toktam actually shared a
delicious home-cooked meal with us on our last night there. The
bedroom has a comfortable bed and large sofa.

The location worked out very well. The area is safe, and it is a short
drive or bus ride to the Getty Center, and walking distance to
Westwood shopping and restaurants. Toktam took the time to walk us to
a neighborhood grocery store and to the Hammer Museum.

We feel very lucky to have had Toktam as our host, and now as our
friend. We imagine that she would not always have the time to spend
on her guests as she did with us, so we don't want to commit her to
anything. We hope to see her again sometime soon, and we
wholeheartedly recommend her listing.
