We enjoyed our stay at the Blake Cottage very much. The place was easy to find and well maintained. Easy access to the freeway. Neighborhood was quiet except for the crazy Fourth of July fireworks. This is normal for the LA area during this time. There was always plenty of parking even for my large truck to park there for a day. Ruth was super nice to even go out of her way to get my brother some pepto because he got sick. Would definitely recommend staying here again if you are looking for a quiet neighborhood away from the city noise.
