I was only in for a quick stay, but the room served its purpose and everyone was friendly. Street parking was fairly crowded when I arrived but more spots opened up later on. It was about a 20-25 minute walk from downtown LA. The dog is a bit of a guard dog which did not bother me but made me worry about disturbing the hosts since I was in for event that went late and left early the next morning. Shared bathroom on the third floor and a firm mattress in the bedroom. Thanks for having me.
