Helen is a wonderful host. Her place was so comfortable and accessible and she made parking and staying so easy for us. We felt so welcome and she is so very friendly and helpful. She even had dinner with us and our son and was so comforting to us and helped us with any apprehensions we had about our sons new life here...she even offered to, and has, spent some time with our son to give him some local knowledge about the area. So very comforting for us all! I cannot recommend her enough! If you have a family member going to USC- perfect place! We will be coming. back to Helen every time we come here to meet our son for the next couple of years. If you want to deal with someone who is completely truthful, considerate and helpful with value for money - this is the place for you. This is the FIRST review I have EVER done, so...be assured I mean all that I write here. Helen! You are the bomb!
