Mark was a very accommodating host. I was in town searching for a place of my own to move to, and he made his home welcoming. He made sure my things were safe when I had to be away for several days, and even let me make arrangement to pick up some things I'd left when I checked out. He's friendly and warm, without being intrusive. His home is clean, and he ensures everything stays tidy. His dogs are super friendly and enhanced my visit tremendously. If I ever need to stay, or have friends stay, in North Hollywood again, I will definitely check with Mark first!

Tuvimos un viaje inolvidable en Los Ángeles y Mark fue un complemento muy importante.
Nos encantó mucho su personalidad desde el primer momento que hablamos por teléfono. Siempre dispuesto a dar un consejo y ayudar. Sin él nuestro viaje no habría estado completo.
La casa muy linda, limpia y ordenada; área segura y accesible para tomar los transportes públicos. Los perritos son encantadores. Extrañamos a Mark y a los perritos: Teddy y Angel. Mark es bienvenido en nuestra casa en Costa Rica.November 2017
My girlfriend and I stayed with Mark for three nights in September. He was a brilliant host who was knowledgeable about the local area which made our trip better. He has a cosy and very clean house with two friendly dogs. Five stars.

Staying with Mark was a great experience. His place is immaculate and he went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. The backyard is perfect to relax in with perfect landscaping. His 2 dogs are cute and cool. The only thing I would improve is being able to stay longer, but being that his place is so awesome I can see why he was booked out, Mark is beyond a Superhost!

Thank you Justin, Looking forward to seeing you again and going out for Dim Sum.

How do I book?
Contact the host about your stay - tell them a little about yourself, why you are staying and ask any questions you have about their homestay. You will be able to book immediately after sending your message.
When do I pay?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 199 $£€ for longer term bookings) and a 25% deposit using a choice of payments: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal. The deposit is collected in advance on behalf of the host to protect against no show or late cancellations (within 7 days of arrival). You then pay your host the balance due on arrival. The 25% deposit payment is made to the host 2 business days after your scheduled arrival date. This deposit payment will only be refunded if you cancel the booking at least 7 full days prior to arrival.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
