We stayed for 3 nights and host Rozina was lovely and warm. She provided water bottles & all amenities etc iron / hair dryer that we needed. Critically, Rosina’s place was in a perfect location!! Generally peaceful, spacious, central and easy to explore everywhere from Santa Monica beach / Venice beach through to Hollywood and Beverly Hills. It was also close to many food / takeaway options and had a very large fridge freezer for use. Street parking was no problem too (she helpfully provided a permit) and the accommodation was spacious.
A few comments:
- There was some dog hair on the kitchen floor when we arrived.
- A very small point but you must meet the host before you can check in, no lock box / self check in etc - so you need to be in contact with the host about your specific arrival time.
- Also within 15 minutes of our arrival the first night, the host informed us that she had a gardener booked for 8am the next morning (our first morning) and suggested that it wouldn’t be too much of a disturbance but offered to reschedule the gardener if we wanted. We said no that was fine, anticipating minimal noise at 8am. However, we were woken up at 7.30am, by what sounded like a industrial sized lawn-mower that operated loudly for approximately 30 minutes, and was then followed by a loud conversation between 3 people outside.
Overall the stay was value for money in a great location!
