Great place, near top of the road...quiet and peaceful, yet just a few minutes down the hill to the hustle and bustle of West Hollywood, LA Farmers market, LACMA etc. Or you can drive over the top to the Valley, etc. Took us 20 minutes to get to Universal Studios, for example. Staying in a Canyon, however, while more beautiful than down in town, can also be less convenient--you probably only want to go in and out once a day.
