Vanessa and Joseph were fantastic as hosts. I have recently moved to LA, and their place served as a waypoint before I settled on an apartment and it was such a lovely stay. The house is clean, immaculately well kept. I had a room to myself, with a soft comfy bed and clean towels. I was initially worried about the distance to Los Angeles city center, given the location in Whittier/ Santa Fe Springs, but it was not a problem. I have become more comfortable with navigating the traffic. But more importantly, it is a short walk from the Metro bus stop (Bus #120), which takes you straight to the Norwalk station, and from there you can catch the train heading to Redondo Beach. Along the way, you are able to connect to any number of buses, and trains to explore various parts of LA. Keep in mind that it is a house and there are other rooms also with guests, but the place was always quite and the broader neighborhood was as well. Finally, Vanessa and Joseph have a detailed set of instructions that made the self-check-in process and the overall stay simple and painless. I am most grateful for the accommodations.
