I've never had a disappointing experience with SA at least a dozen times so far. Places include Glendale Htl, NoHo Hs, both Encino Hss, Northridge, NoHills. And Los Angeles Htl, which I think is outside SA but was booked through one SA booker. Two or three flowers were less than enthusiastic but had bodies that were just fine so (selfish me) I still enjoyed my experience.
I especially like the prices because I can use SA more often. I also appreciate the houses which I prefer to hotels.
One difference I would like is to have locations in LA, especially near Hollywood where I live. I only go outside SA when I want to see somone closer to home.
