The pictures do not do this place justice at all. It really is a jewel - incredibly cozy with absolutely wonderful hosts. The view of the mountains out the window from the bed is breathtaking. The Sierra Madre train station is about a 5-10 min drive away with free parking- the gold line takes you right to union station where you can connect to all of LA. The heater is right by the bed and keeps you nice and warm if it gets chilly. They have a wonderful little microwave and tea kettle setup. The Eaton Canyon (which is gorgeous) is only about 2 blocks away. The neighborhood is incredibly safe and homey. It is private, quite, easy to park at with some food and stores close by. The room is absolutely adorable with a private bathroom and a nice shower. Absolutely a wonderful place hosted by wonderful people with a beautiful view - 10/10 would recommend
