Dorothy is a very attentive host and an excellent communicator. Any questions or concerns were answered within minutes. This is a very quiet neighborhood, and only minutes away from great hiking trails in the hills above LA. Massive amounts of closet space and two full bathrooms make this an easy place to drop into for a longer stay. Fresh limes and oranges from the backyard trees were an unexpected plus. I was there on a work assignment, and the location made it easy to pick the best commute routes, of which there are many options. Sprouts, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Vons are all easily accessible grocery stores in the area. There's a great bakery on the corner of New York and Allen, and my favorite coffee shop, Jameson Coffee Roasters on Allen just on the south side of the 210.
