The room is nice, the house is clean, and there's ample on-street parking. There is a Metro station within easy walking distance, which means you don't have to drive to Downtown or to Santa Monica (or even more far-flung places!). Lots of local dining places within an easy walk.
The room is very close to the I-10 freeway, but the noise is mostly a steady "whoosh" which I didn't mind at all, as my own bedroom is far noisier. Even so, Jennifer has a jar of earplugs on the bedstand if you need them.
