I checked in very late due to LA traffic, but Helen was very accommodating and understanding to my last-day request. Even during the late check-in, she asked me what time I was going to be awake tomorrow, so that there could be coffee ready for me if I wanted.
The room itself was warmly prepared, and the scented candle that burned during my check-in was a nice little touch, especially after a long and windy drive through LA. The bathroom is accessible immediately from the room, which was a great convenience (it wasn't located down a hall, for example).
That late hour check-in the previous night ended up hiding the beautiful neighborhood that was revealed the next morning, and I woke up refreshed from the comfortable bed (there was also this nice "white noise" device by the bed, that helped me sleep). There was a welcome pack of snacks and water by the window, and the view of the outside was inviting and pleasant.
During my stay, I got to meet her family of dogs, of which Faith was the eldest and most sweetest. Though I was out most of the day, and there were others staying at the residence, I appreciated being able to explore LA, while my belongings were safe and sound at the room. I would highly recommend staying at Helen's residence in the future, though I would recommend checking in at the normal time next time :)
