EXACTLY WHAT WE NEEDED!! We were passing through LA on a longer trip and needed a spot to rest and recharge before the next leg. First challenge - find a place close to the airport and major freeways that isn't an urban nightmare or overpriced. Check. More on that in a sec. Second challenge - booking on short notice. No problem for this host. He was super responsive, accommodated our booking request, made the entry super simple. Back to the spot - it was the right balance between hotel and home. Well-appointed, super clean, but also a home! We like to be able to cook some while traveling (it really helps our mornings), this kitchen had EVERYTHING we needed and more. Oh, and it’s in a nice, quiet neighborhood that’s also only a few minutes from the coffee and stores you need. Since the beach was so close, we squeezed that into our schedule too – super easy. If not for our prior commitments, we would’ve liked to have stayed longer – felt like we really lucked out.
