Amy's cottage offers a lot of "bang for the buck" in a location easily accessible to the heart of L.A., though you should be aware that the area, in terms of both street parking (a little challenging but definitely achievable) and driveway path to and from the cottage, are quite steep and should be factored in for anyone who might be dealing with physical challenges; if you are young and/or fit, this should not be an issue.
Amy was extremely responsive and easy to communicate with; the few issues we shared with her were resolved almost instantly. The cottage is immaculate and so many thoughtful details and touches made us feel incredibly welcomed--this is something we would call outstanding compared to other hosts. Hot water is never an issue, so if hot showers are a must, you are a very happy camper. Cottage can get warm during the day, but the room air conditioner in the bedroom works very well for that space and extra fans are available upon request. The washer/dryer is a real bonus and Amy was generous enough to have detergent packets available, just one of the thoughtful amenities (like loads of extra towels and bedding, and some food items, etc.) that made the cottage so inviting.
One of our favorite features was the lovely outdoor space, which was small, but so beautifully curated with shrubbery and foliage in a beautiful natural setting that it became a cherished private and peaceful sanctuary, especially after a long day touring about town. It was definitely a perfect escape at the end of each day. Amy definitely lives up to her SuperHost status.
