A nice and quiet place to relax after a day in LA! For me and my husband, noise is the number one factor in picking a place to stay. The casita was fairly quiet overall. Yes, you have some noise from the neighbors (and chickens/roosters) next door, but overall very peaceful. Don't worry, the birds don't make noise in the morning. Bed was very comfortable, sheets were nice and clean. Location of the casita is very central to all of LA, and is in a very safe (seems to me) neighborhood. Parking is easy, even with the alt side rules. Stay here!
