Rod and Ted were great, and the place was very nice. It's exactly how it looks in the picture. When we got there, they had a binder of cool restaurants and bars in the neighborhood. The area is very safe and centrally located (close to the zoo and Balboa park). It's easy to pick up a lyft/uber from there. Additionally, it's within walking distance to a lot of cool stores/restaurants/bars. The house itself is in a quiet neighborhood, so you don't have to worry about anything keeping you up at night. I highly recommend this place.
