This place is peaceful and quiet. The little privet yard is so nice to enjoy the CA weather dining alfresco. The guest house is perfectly laid out with a nice size bedroom closet, a very comfortable bed, easy to cook kitchen and comfortable living room for chilling to watch a movie. The street has a lot of cars but we always found parking. You do need to watch for the street cleaning days. The house is in an area of town that is very close to many locations around the city by car. Also just a mile away is the culver stairs, big climb up a mountain with wonderful views of LA and the ocean. Then the treat when your back at the street level are trucks to serve smoothies, açaí bowls and etc.
