My daughter and I came to stay for a music festival of, and this was the perfect place to stay away from the busyness of downtown LA. Amal was warm and welcoming, the place was very adorably decorated and and the bed was super comfy. The neighborhood appeared safe, and she said they've never had any problems. As a note, the street the house is on is fairly narrow. Amal was kind and allowed me to park in her driveway. Overall, I thought this was an excellent place to stay and would stay again!
