This place was so much bigger and nicer than the pictures show. It is a studio with no kitchen, as advertised, but it feels like a big roomy living room with a stone fireplace and a nice little porch area. Stylish touches and a dog-friendly front yard add to the charm. The owner is so friendly and welcoming--very accommodating. The location is central between the Bixby Knolls/Cal Heights parts of LB, the downtown area, and the beaches on the south side. I would stay here again any time!
