Alfie and Anna are so warm and friendly. They live on the property and let you know that if you need anything they're there. But they're doing their own thing and you do yours. They don't intrude into your time there. It felt like coming home each night- while on vacation. It was me, my 17 year old son, and my 7 year old daughter. The studio was spacious and we never felt cramped, or on top of each other. I loved the decor- especially the colorful floor and shower wall tile. The beds are comfortable and the view is awesome. Be prepared to drive up a very long, steep driveway. I drive a stick and it would have been good to have known in advance. Alfie's place, as far as location, is great for pretty much anywhere you want to go in LA. But the traffic is the nightmare you always hear it is. Staying in such a cozy home was so much better than renting a hotel room! It made a great vacation even better! I highly recommend!
