Fanchon’s guest house is a perfect little respite from the hustle and bustle of LA. It’s a bit north of all the city action, nestled in a cute suburban neighborhood, with a fantastic view of the Los Angeles mountains right outside the big sun-filled windows. I loved waking up and enjoying my coffee in their garden (luckily brought my own setup from camping, because there is a water heater and tea selection but no coffee. Heads up to my fellow caffeine addicts ;) ) The AC in the room was perfect for the 100+ degree weather hitting the city right now. It was a matter of minutes before the entire area was completely cooled. They allowed me to park my car in their driveway which was also very kind and convenient. If you’re a solo traveler or even a couple, this is the perfect place to take a little detour from the chaos of the city but not be too out of reach from it all.
