Anthea is very accommodating, nice and made my stay super effortless and comfortable. The pictures are exactly what you should expect when you arrive. We arrived eaarly in the morning before our check in time and was able to drop off our bags at the house so we can go out for the day. Your entrance is at the back/side of the house so you never go through the front and just go directly into your room. There are multiple buses you can take to go downtown - 10-20 min bus ride tops and its only 1.50 to get on the bus. Uber is also really cheap in LA. Washroom was clean and well kept. I felt at home right away and really comfortable. On my last day my bus to SF wasn't departing until 11:30PM, so I checked out but she let me keep my stuff at her place until I was ready to leave for the evening. Also any questions you have, she answers very quickly which is very helpful! Her dogs are super cute too! :)
