We really enjoyed our stay at Clara's place. The house was very comfortable, with great spaces to relax. The garden is very peaceful. Gardena is also a wonderful part of LA, with tons of delicious Japanese and Korean food. The neighborhood is very pleasant, with a great playground & park around the corner where one can play tennis, basketball, or even badminton or skateboarding. One is also very close to a highway, and it's easy to get to other neighborhoods and activities throughout LA.
