Brendan and Stina are a relaxed and warm couple, very open and friendly, but leave you all the space you need. The room was clean and ample and I spend some peaceful, healthy nights there. The neighborhood isn't posh neither is it run-down. Great is the transport connection, which means that several bus lines and even the metro red line is right next to the door. I also enjoyed some good reading at Brendan and Stina's, just because there always is a L.A Times or a feminist magazine to find at theirs.
