Russell was very easy to communicate with and was no problem to check in and out. The room and house is exactly as described. Very clean and lots of soaps and conditioners etc in bathroom if you've forgotten something. Duplex is in a good location, right off the 134, 101 and 405, so you can be anywhere in LA you need to pretty quickly. I would only say you should bring ear plugs. The house sits off a major street and intersection and the traffic is pretty loud and consistent all night. The bedroom faces the street to whether the windows are open or not, if you're a light sleeper I highly advise ear plugs for it.
