Clara's house is well located in the middle of the LA region. So while the immediate neighborhood is nothing fancy, it is near great Japanese food in Gardena, and within an hour from Pasadena, LAX, Anaheim, Long Beach, Hollywood, Santa Monica, and downtown. This was great for our family, who was visiting all these places over the week. The place is super clean, has a well appointed kitchen, good AC, and is on a quiet street. Clare was a great communicator and helped out with a minor tech issue.
