Luciene place provided us with what we needed for our trip to LA. It's 5 min (drive), 28 min walk to the metro, located in a walkable neighborhood. Check in and check out was easy. The home is by a busy road so you would hear cars on the street often (so not quiet for that reason) which wasn't a bother to us since we were out most of the day and tired late at night when we returned. While Luciene place is no smoking, note that incense is burned just by the entrance of the house in the living room, by the door of the Airbnb space , a smell that is very overwhelming especially if you are sensitive to strong smells as we are. The smell did NOT get into the room we stayed as clothing is put under the door to barricade, however we wish we were aware of this as a possibility since the smell was not fresh air and could be confused for cigarette smoke or cause health issues if you are sensitive to such strong smell. So that's something else to be aware of. Otherwise it's a cute private small place that's adequate. Luciene was very responsive to us by Airbnb app and answered questions as we had them. Thank you, Luciene.
