Joanne's guest cottage is wonderful, and I highly recommend staying here! It's relaxing (especially the back patio), very clean and neat, and in a perfect location. The West Hollywood neighborhood is peaceful and beautiful, very suburban to walk around in, but Joanne's is in quick walking proximity to any necessities, like Bristol Farms for groceries, or Rite Aid or CVS. She has coffee and tea available, but I recommend checking out Enigma Coffee just a block away, or if you're up for a bit more of a morning stroll, check out Farm Cup Coffee about a 10-minute walk south (which has a bit more variety and more of a scene). Hiking Runyon Canyon is a great daytime activity and only a few minutes away by Uber (bring a hat and water!), but it's also close enough to walk to or from (about 20 minutes) - I drove there and walked the slight downhill home. All in all, I had a great time in LA, and Joanne was a great, very communicative host - stay at Joanne's!
