My stay in Carin's Garden Guest Suite was wonderful. While the suite is certainly exactly as it appears in the pictures, what you cannot appreciate is how peaceful it is. The bedroom opens to the pool/garden area with huge swaths of purple flowers framing the door. You're literally 8 steps to the pool and hot tub. You're completely isolated from surrounding properties - you cannot see (or hear) the neighbors next door. It's really very lovely.

I have several favorite places to stay in LA - this may be my new favorite. It's very close to everything, extremely convenient, ultra quiet, clean, and very comfortable. The bed is memory foam and among one of the most comfortable I've had in quite awhile.

Although I didn't have the pleasure to meet Carin, her friend Ed and her sister were my hosts. They were both exceptionally friendly and warm. I'd love to stay here again in the future!
