Great place to stay near LA!
It is clean, well- appointed, has everything a guest could need to feel at home! The private patio makes it even more appealing as you can sit outside in the beautiful Californian weather and enjoy nature - small garden, birds churping - very relaxing! The neighbourhood was quite, residential. The place is small as advertised - studio for 2-3 people max. Kitchen is well equipped to prepare simple meals, coffee, breakfast. Lots of light throughout. A/C came in handy as it turned warmer for a couple of days. The location is close enough to major roads yet far enough to not be bothered by traffic or noise. You will need a car to be more comfortable getting places although it seemed local transportation (metro?) was passing not that far. Laura, our host, was great as well - greeted us the 1st day we arrived, had a freshly baked banana bread waiting for us upon arrival, was quick to respond to communications, gave us recommendations on hiking, and accomodated our last minute request to check out 1 hr later than planned.
I would come to that place again if visiting LA in the futite!
