The casita is exactly as described and so cozy and comfortable, well-decorated and very aesthetically appealing. I loved walking and jogging around the historic neighborhood, going to the BluElephant cafe a few blocks away for an espresso early in the AM, and swimming at the Coliseum Pool about a mile away. It was a convenient place for work because everything is within driving distance (and it's LA, so of course you'll want to drive). I'd like to come back sometime not for work. The casita is well set up for work with very reliable wireless and a comfortable bar to work at. Thanks to Tara and her husband for hosting me!
