The house has a big front yard with all kinds of trees and flowers. We have 2 dogs their names are "Sammy" a male German Shepherd, "Rain" a young sweet and energetic mix Greyhound/Doberman. Sorry but we don't accept pets as guest. If you have a service dog be aware that 1 of our dogs is territorial with other animals.
This is a musical talented family, and we have all kinds of instruments, guitars and guitar bass (more than all my fingers), drum sets, violin, piano, and keyboards, most of them are in the back of the home recording studio which is sound proof.
We all speak English, Spanish and dad also speaks Italian. As a family we have traveled to many exciting countries in America, Europe and Asia.

The best hosts!! 5
I booked for 1 month with a friend and Isabel and her husband welcomed us very well and did everything to ensure we lacked nothing from start to finish. They are so kind and friendly I would gladly come back, so I recommend 100%

Highly recommended! The bedroom and the garden are beautiful, very clean. The best thing though is being welcomed to the city by such a lovely family! They're gentle, helpful and trustworthy. Great place to stay.

Isabel and Ricki are the sweetest and most gentle hosts I’ve ever encountered. I’d give them 10 stars for their hospitality, their friendliness and the beauty of their home alone!

We had a wonderful stay at Isabel's place, the hosts are very nice, welcoming and helpful. The house is nice, clean and comfortable. The area (Silverlake) is very well located in Los Angeles. I recommend.

I stayed for 2 weeks in this beautiful paradise with the most amazings owners. Felt immediately at home, in love with the lush garden, the 2 dogs, my room and patio. I had a lot of privacy, but if I wanted to I could connect with other people staying there.
The location is supercentral, a 5 minute walk for a bus to downtown, or 15 minute walk for the subway that brings you to almost every corner of LA.
I will definitely be back and for sure stay at this place, highly recommended!!February 2022
Very nice and trustful person
