Gabriela is a great host and this is a wonderfully clean guest house with all the amenities you need, plus its own pool. It is quiet at night and has a very comfy bed!
An Uber from LAX will cost approx $30.00 depending on time of day and availability, the journey shouldn't take more than 35mins in moderate traffic. Also look to download the app for 'Lyft'. As sometimes prices are cheaper.
Amoroso is walking distance to some cool independent fashion stores, bars and restaurants on Lincoln Blvd.
The awesome Erewhon market organic store is 15mins walk away https://www.erewhonmarket.com/ & the fashionable Abbot Kinney Blvd with its upmarket stores and restaurants is also close by (20mins walk). Make sure you take the short cut through Amoroso Place!
