Truly a home away from home. My friend and I stayed at Vanessa's for 6 days and we found ourselves looking forward to returning each evening after long days seeing the LA sights. The home was very clean and cozy with many beautiful antique touches. We did not get a chance to meet Vanessa in person as she was traveling during our stay, but communication by text was warm and genuine. From other reviews, it sounds like Vanessa is a wonderful person and it showed through her care and attention to details. We really had no concerns or problems during our stay. Location form airport was great and travel times to the LA area attractions were good. Freeway traffic was very heavy most of the time (to be expected in LA) so we found that disabling highways on our GPS actually saved us some time. Each of the 2 bedrooms had a flat screen TV equipped with a Fire TV Stick loaded with several apps such as Netflix (your own login required). Wi-Fi was excellent. Beds were firm and very comfortable. The mattresses felt like new. Dining and living rooms were spacious and had plenty of seating to relax in. Although we had all our meals out, kitchen was very spacious and everything one would need to make meals at home was provided, including cooking utensils, large fridge/freezer with ice maker and filtered water, stove, microwave, dishwasher, double sink, and plenty of counter space. Bathroom was very clean and shower had great water pressure. Linen closet was well stocked with towels and bedrooms had extra sheets and pillows. Plenty of drawer space. Nest thermostat kept the temperatures comfy. Free street parking was available as well as in the driveway. We would definitely like to stay at Vanessa's place again next time we visit LA.
