My (Italian) girlfriend & I stayed at Alison's delightful flat for 3 days in early February, seeking a nourishing SoCal respite from a dreary, cold Chicago winter. We were very happy with our accommodations, so ideally situated in beautiful Sherman Oaks. We walked to Ventura Blvd every morning for coffee, and for dinner every evening. The flat was ideal as a home base, with all amenities & a very comfortable double bed. We enjoyed sitting by the pool a couple of times, chatting & savouring our good fortune. I would definitely stay at Alison's AirBnB again if it's available.
