Warm, quiet and cozy indeed. The hosts are wonderful and their entire home is lovely, including the room itself. The house is in a quiet street, yet close to various bus connections on three sides and the train (E line) is only 15 minutes away on foot. As LA is huge, it's hard to sax there is such a thing as an ideal location. However, this ended up being pretty central, about an hour away from LAX, Santa Monica and Hollywood, even less to Downtown. And the street feels really safe. I would definitely stay here again.
