I felt wonderfully welcome at Kiwi House. I felt perfectly comfortable entering, squaring my things away, felt the room was secure, and felt great about leaving some food for myself in the fridge and kitchen cupboards. It was really easy to get there from LAX, and about an eight minute walk from the Red Line Metro station. That was the line I needed to attend my event, so it was perfect for me. I also easily took the bus down Sunset to the Strip to meet an old friend for lunch and catch a show at the Viper Room. the kitchen and bathroom were very clean and well kept up, on a daily basis. Cherry was so friendly and I felt well taken care of. Couldn't beat the price, and it was so much cosier than a motel--the kitchen was like being at home. I slept great there--the neighborhood was quiet at night, and I didn't ever use the earplugs I brought along. Kiwi House is a safe bet for a pleasant L.A. experience!
