4 Month Spectacular Stay in LA
About our group - After being forced into online classes and kick out of our college campus due to the covid pandemic, my three girlfriends and I were looking for a place where we could live together and take online classes. This Classic Los Angeles home was everything we could have wanted and more. From the fantastic location to the attentive host, our experience could not have been better! Cleanliness of property - The property is exceptionally well taken care of; everything is neat and clean (rooms, garden, kitchen, and living spaces). When we arrived, the fridge and all the appliances were spotless, the beds were made with freshly washed sheets and linens, and every surface sparkled. Throughout our four-month stay, the yard stayed highly well-maintained, and Omaima had her cleaner come twice. For such a historic house built in 1927, Omaima has done a fantastic job maintaining the property and keeping it up to date, with weekly landscapers, housekeeping, and routine maintenance. Check-in process - Extremely simple and easy. Before our stay, Omaima was gracious enough to give my roommate and me a tour of the place. It was effortless to coordinate the booking and check-in process with Omaima. She is very professional and an experienced host, which made the check-in process simple and the whole experience. Accuracy of the online listing - These photos are incredibly accurate. The furniture is identical to the pictures—the master bedroom and queen bedroom significantly larger than they appear in the images. There are tons of closet and storage space in total there are five walk-in closets. The two smaller bedrooms are connected to the one in the back. You either have to walk through the smaller room beside it or go outside onto the patio. Location and neighborhood - An extremely safe location and is so central to everything in West Hollywood. You are within walking distance of fantastic food on 3rd Street, shopping on Melrose, Fairfax, and the Grove, museums, and Parks. Street traffic is not too heavy, and the neighborhood is a great place to run. Overall rating - Omaima was the best host who works hard to add a professional touch to everything. She lives directly above the property was able to help us whenever we had complications. At the same time, she also left us with plenty of privacy. I couldn't recommend this place more; the security, amenities, attention to small details truly made staying here exceptional.

Great place and an amazing hostess!
We had to travel to LA during the most stressful times in the middle of Covid-19 to get my husband surgery done at USC. We could not find a safer and cleaner place then this house! Omaima was a great hostess and very good at communicating with us if we needed anything! I would highly recommend this place!

An Oasis in LA
We loved our experience at Omaima’s place. It is spacious, clean and very well-appointed. It was the perfect place for our family of four. The kids books and toys were an especially big hit with our young kids. Omaima was a great host and was wonderful to deal with. We’re hoping we can stay here again on our next visit to LA!

Charming house, great neighborhood
This older home is well kept and shows love of ownership. The towels are big and fluffy, the beds comfortable with great bedding, the kitchen is well stocked and their were fresh flowers on the table. The only complaint is with the small showers, but short of a complete bathroom redo, it isn't fixable. Don't let that stop you! This is a gem in a great neighborhood where you can walk to fine dining. I'd go back in a heartbeat! The owner is wonderful as well. Two thumbs way up.

Lovely place
The home was adorable- “classic Beverly Hills” - in a beautiful and safe neighborhood close to so many things we walked to. Our hostess was lovely - accommodating and kind. Texted to see if we were comfortable or needed anything. The house was immaculate and well equipped. Of course the showers were small ( that’s how they all used to be) but it added to the charm. We even had a garage stall which was much appreciated. Parking is a premium in CA. We truly enjoyed our weekend there.

Spectacular!
This home is even more gorgeous in person than in the photos. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. This must be about 1000 square feet or more, with high ceilings (10 feet?) and lots of natural daylight through the many picture windows. The Spanish Revival charm of this house is retained throughout, but the kitchen has a modern renovation and is outfitted with everything we needed including a variety of pantry staples (it didn't have a coffee grinder but Omaima brought one in minutes). It is meticulously clean. There is a front porch and an enclosed back patio. The house is a two-story separate duplex - the first floor is the VRBO and the second floor is Omaima's residence. She gives the VRBO guests one bay of the garage, and also has a visiter's tag to hang in your car for street parking. The neighborhood was quiet and only a 5 minute walk to a little coffee shop area and a half-mile from a park with a .33 mile jogging/walking loop. The house has two bathrooms, the second of which is en-suite to the small room with the twin bed (a sort-of maid's room), so there is not really a master suite. The only improvement I could imagine would be a renovation of the main bathroom, which currently retains the beautiful original art deco tiles and has a separate tub and small shower stall that shows its age. Omaima was a wonderful host who checked in by text to make sure we were happy but was never intrusive. I hope to visit again.

Perfect home for our girl's getaway
This home was perfect for our girl's weekend getaway as it was close to so many of the things we wanted to do. Plenty of room to spread out yet comfortable enough for us to spend time together at the table, living room, or garden. Omaima was a gracious hostess and welcomed us to a beautiful home that was clean, well stocked, and had very comfortable beds and fluffy towels! It was everything we had hoped for!

Omaima is a great hostess! She met us at the door, and was super helpful and friendly. This location is perfect, right on the edge of Beverly Hills. The house is an older home, in an older neighborhood, but all is very well kept up. There is parking in a garage, but if your car is too big (SUV), she has a permit for street parking. That's what we had to do. Overall, I would go back. This location is fabulous!

I am so happy we found this property! Omaima was the perfect host! She welcomed us when we arrived and gave us the grand tour. The house was absolutely beautiful and clean! We traveled as a family of 4 adults and 2 children and we had more than enough space for everyone. I was so pleased that anything we could have thought about needing was there. Plus we were so close to everything. I would highly recommend that anyone looking to travel to the Hollywood area stay at this home away from home! You won't be disappointed!!

Perfect Spring Break!
Our family of 5 stayed here over spring break and we could not have been happier! The location seemed to be central to everything we wanted to do and loved how quiet the neighborhood was. Learned very quickly how important having a free parking space was as well. The house was fantastic with plenty of space and very comfy beds. Lastly, the owner could not have been nicer! She personally met us on arrival and always made sure we had what we needed! Great trip all around and will stay here again when we return!

Perfect experience
Whenever one chooses a place to stay offered by a private owner, there is always apprehension. Especially if one is traveling across the country. We made the right choice. Omaima's home is so full of character and so well appointed that we truly felt like it was home. When you open the kitchen cabinets, all of the glassware and utensils are clean, new and not just a bunch of junk somebody thought would be good enough for a rental. By the second day I didn't even bother to check if they were clean or not. Same for the bedding, towels and everything else. (Don't fret if you forgot shampoo, it's there). I forgot to buy coffee. There was plenty. The appliances (which are new and perfect), large screen TV's and everything else are perfect. The outside area available for your use, was gorgeous, (too bad the weather was not) Oimaima sent us a text the day after we arrived to ask if we needed any thing. This is a very roomy corner house that is close to a store or restaurant if you need to walk, and in a great location. Thank You Omaima!

The accommodation was in a great location,well equipped and very clean.we were out most of the time so it was great for our needs. Our car was to big for the garage but Omaima provided us with a permit to park on the street. All in all we would thoroughly recommend this accommodation.

Wonderful California Classic
This place is wonderful and very well appointed. You will want the info on the beds when you leave..they are amazing. The owner is super and takes great care of the place. It's immaculate. There are even fresh flowers to greet you! The only thing to note is that the 2 smaller bedrooms are attached to each other and you must go through both bedrooms to get to the second bathroom (which has a shower only). We will definitely stay here again when in LA. Great location too.

This place has it all
This spacious apartment on Sweetzer is in a great location and has truly everything one could possibly want in a rental. It also has the charm and character that many of the houses in the area have. In addition to having ample sleeping quarters, it is very well appointed in terms of appliances, dishes, groceries, books, maps, games...you name it. The owner, who lives in the other apartment upstairs, was super friendly and made the whole arrival/departure process very easy. There are some very nice outdoor areas; however, I wasn't able to enjoy them, as my time in LA corresponded with about 6 inches of rain in three days (a rare occurrence for So Cal). I wholeheartedly recommend this mid-Wilshire/Beverly Grove home...you will not regret your choice!

Gracious host, beautiful home, perfect location!!
We had a wonderful stay at Omaima’s property. The location couldn’t have been better, and the home was clean, comfortable and cozy. The outside patio, in particular, was so inviting. Perfect for dining al fresco or just hanging out. The beds were very comfortable, and there was plenty of space for our party of 6. Moreover, Omaima was a conscientious and gracious host, even going through the trouble of mailing us several clothes items we had accidentally left behind. She did so without hesitation, and we truly appreciate it. We loved Omaima’s home, and would stay there again in an instant. :)
