This was a comfortable, quiet room in a neighborhood near lots of local attractions. My schedule on this trip was such that I was coming and going at early and late hours, and Paul's hospitality made that very possible and not awkward. The bed and pillows were just like home, and the room provided a small table with chairs for working or reading. The bathroom — which is gorgeous! — was stocked with supplies for traveling guests. House rules were well laid out and reasonable. I look forward to staying there again when I have to travel to the Venice Beach area.
