We stayed in the middle of the worst storm in years (LA style)-sink holes, downed trees and no power (due to the storm). Josh had all the candles lit when we got there and helped us find our way in the dark. It was a wet and wild night-so we were glad to have a place to stay. The beds were comfortable, the house well-located and a grocery store within walking distance. The yard will contain a medium to large dog-I was worried about my 15 pounder slipping through the gate. However, it was so wet he wasn't inclined to wander. LA is congested with limited parking, so happy for the driveway parking that could fit two cars. Front yard is also gated. Stove is gas-so that helped with the power being out-still able to make a cup of tea!
