Amy's place is in a quiet neighborhood north of Los Angeles. Parking on the street wasn't an issue, like it is elsewhere. The cottage is quaint, and the shower is small, but was perfect for our needs. My son thought the sleeper sofa was the best he had ever slept on. Everything was clean and towels were ample. She even provided beach towels for the beach. Allow more time for the traffic, because it is bad everywhere in LA. However, the location worked out fairly well for us, since we were visiting Hollywood and Malibu. We would stay there again if we are back in the area.
