I stayed with Kathy for my first 2 weeks in LA while I looked for an apartment and started my new job. I stayed in the room listed with private bathroom and access to the backyard. The room was so spacious (I would know as I was looking at apartments around here and they were tiny!). Great King-sized bed too.The bathroom was average size and the backyard was wonderful. Everything was clean and tidy (I'm a neat freak!) and a housekeeper came during my stay as well. I felt very welcome in the kitchen, dining room, and living room as well. The neighborhood is my favorite; I moved in a few blocks away so that should tell you something!
As for Kathy, she's fantastic! She is accommodating and considerate. She helped me out in many ways, going above and beyond normal host duties. Her two dogs are sweet, quiet, and calm.
Overall, staying at Kathy's was the best and I highly recommend her!
