This was our first out of hotel experience as a family and it was beyond our expectations... communication was exceptional, the check in was super easy, the house was amazing, clean, close to everything, all of our personal belongings were safe (we had electronics, etc. And we were gone for most the day and nothing ever went missing or was moved), they literally offered everything we needed plus a little more and the neighborhood combined with the with homey feel gave my family and I the total LA experience. We were then personally welcomed by our awesome hosts who gave us a tour of the house later that night after check in and they literally spent about 30min just having a great conversation with my family and I, to the point where our kids asked once we got upstairs to our room if "we can just stop staying in hotels and just come stay with your friends Jino and Scott" ! We laughed but we all felt the same way... we are literally already planning our next trip and of course that includes staying with our awesome hosts and new friends! I would recommend to anyone who is uneasy about staying in someone's home with their children, we felt safe with our children there and they made it a point to make us all feel at home! Thank you guys a mill for helping us give our kiddos an amazing birthday week!!
