The Black Carriage nourished my soul. I was on meaningful visit to LA after moving away some years ago, and am so glad I started my journey here. My only regret is that I didn’t stay longer.
A few people mentioned dogs barking in their reviews, and while it is true, I felt the resident dogs were just part of the experience and doing their jobs. I have a dog myself and live in nature, so I appreciate when they alert or protect from wildlife. I saw a lovely, large coyote that the dogs were keeping away. If you are sensitive to those particular sounds you might consider this.
I had the heat pump going on full blast all night- and I’m so glad their was a heater as it was cold that night. I liked the white noise sound it created.
The bathtub and steamy, ornate bathroom is worth the entire trip alone.
Receiving answers to a couple questions I had initially was quick and easy. Only can be done once connecting to the guest wifi. Heed the warning that there is no reception out there. I highly recommend taking screenshots of the driving directions and arrival instructions.
I enjoyed every thoughtful and cared for detail of this place. I look forward to going back, for longer next time.
