Joelle's place is quiet and private, which was a plus. We didn't hear any excess noise so we felt comfortable coming and going as we pleased. We had 2 people staying there so one of us slept on the futon and one slept on the twin bed and it worked. There were room dividers that provided privacy.
The source of heat is through electric space heaters that warm the place up in no time. However, it isn't really safe to leave those on when you're not there so you will come home to a cold house in the mornings if you work overnight in the winter. They do work quickly though :) The AC works well. The shower is a little tight but manageable. They were able to accommodate parking for our 2 cars, which is a huge plus in LA! Thanks so much for the great stay!
