Carlos's place was ideal for us. A lovely flat and location; away from the city of LA and overlooking the hills of Taponga State Park. A good place for a quiet holiday. The Taponga Canyon Road that runs through the canyon is a busy road but the flat is about half a mile up the mountain from it to make it feel quiet and secluded The flat was just the right size for us, a couple, and we enjoyed sitting on the balcony. Having trees next to the flat provided well needed shade and a refuge for many varieties of birds. The flat was great, the bed was very confortable. Having a car is essential to get to the flat and to get around the area.
