Overall it was a functional no frills place, quiet enough to get a good night's sleep after the neighborhood dogs stopped barking, which wasn't too long. The other guests seemed to be local the East LA
area and we're not friendly, would hardly even give me the time of day. I was the only white person, but I don't think that had anything to do with it.
The house is on the small side but we'll kept up, everything worked. A common issue that came up was, with 6 guests and one bathroom, you often had to wait to use the WC, which most of the time wasn't too long. There was a curtained off area in the very front of the living room where another quest was staying, and unfortunately, you couldn't avoid walking through part of the living room to get to the kitchen - and the wooden floor would creak so I was always worried about waking up the other guest if I needed something from the kitchen late in the evening after he went to bed.
The room itself had a small twin bed which was on the soft side and almost too short - I would not recommend it for anybody over six feet tall.
We had a couple hot days in the upper 90s where it would have been more comfortable temperature wise if the AC had been running a little longer, but both windows can be opened so I don't have a major complaint there.
One last thing - be very careful parking, and pay close attention to the signs - I got a 70$ ticket.In spite of the things I mentioned this place worked out ok for the most part. I would say it's best suited for people local to East LA to as it's not very close to any attractions and the traffic congestion in LA is a nightmare.
