Charming is certainly the best word to describe this guest cottage. My husband and I came to LA for a long weekend with our 12 month old daughter. We wanted to be close to Venice, Marina, and Santa Monica so this was the perfect location. The neighborhood is great for walking around and Hanne suggested a local breakfast spot called Maxwells which was perfect and within walking distance. The cottage does not have a kitchen or kitchenette but we knew that before deciding to stay. We basically came to LA to eat out and not have to cook.
Hanne and her family were very kind and welcoming. Overall, we had a great experience and would not hesitate to stay at Hanne's place again.
