Perfect spot
We had two plus days in LA and Brian’s house was ideal for us. Comfortable. Quiet. And so well located for us who went off in. Early every direction over both days. Great house!

Gem of a home in perfect West Los Angeles location
This home is lovingly maintained and furnished. Quiet setting with very comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, plentiful towels. Fruit trees and roses in the garden. Even more lovely than described on the website. Very easy communication with owner. Quick access to the 10 and 405 as well as UCLA, Culver City and Santa Monica. Would love to stay again.

Very Pleasant and Comfortable Stay
We spread out and really enjoyed our 3 nights at Brian's house in West L.A. The two bedrooms are very comfortable and we slept well. Despite 3-4 of us being around the single bathroom was not a problem and the shower had excellent hot water and pressure. We didn't cook at all but the kitchen is very well appointed with lots of room in the fridge. We couldn't get the TVs to work despite the detailed instructions but we weren't there to watch TV anyway. Very much enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it to others.

I work freelance in the TV business and rent out the large main house to supplement my income.

Why they chose this property

A quiet neighborhood with tree lined streets and nice houses in the middle of busy West LA. Just south of UCLA, just East of Santa Monica, just West of Century City, and just North of the new Expo line train and the great shops and restaurants near Pico and Westwood Blvd., you are in the center of the mix of all that Los Angeles has to offer, but with a nice quiet, quaint feel.

What makes this property unique

I pride my property as being a clean and well stocked hotel alternative, for about the price of a ROOM down the street in Century City, you get an immaculate 2/1 house with gardens, parking, etc.
