Thomas's place is ideal if you want a central location that is within reasonable traveling distance to many key L.A. hotspots. Definitely pick this place if you're planning on seeing as much of the area as possible. The location is safe (even at night by foot) and quiet. Please note, however, that this place is a duplex, so your neighbors could possibly not have the best volume control depending on who's staying there (I got the impression that the other side of the duplex is rented out as well, but I may be wrong.). Regardless, the place is clean and cozy and has a lot of great amenities. The wifi is great, and this place would work well for business. The gated parking space is a huge plus if you are renting a vehicle. If not, Lyft or Uber can reach you within 5 minutes or less. Myself and my buddy had quicker response times at this location with Lyft, just so you know. Also, there is little traffic up and down this street, so getting your car out or being picked up is super easy and zero stress. I can't stress enough how awesome it is that this place is gated. You have that and then a lockable screen door and lockable wooden door. The trees and plants surrounding the duplex also make it feel more private. My only other comment would be to note that the air conditioning is 2 wall A/C units and a fan. There is no A/C system flowing air throughout the home. The A/C wall units are also slightly aged and a tad loud. However, your hosts are absolutely wonderful, and communication is superb!! I'd like to stay here again if I can come back. I highly recommend this place, and for the price, I think you are getting more than your money's worth, ESPECIALLY since this is L.A. Thanks so much for a pleasant and easy stay, Thomas!
