My husband and I traveled from TX for a weekend trip to L.A. We simply cannot say enough about our experience. The place is fabulous in every way. It is hard to describe the special touches, but we were so impressed with the details and amenities. The garden was a lovely calming space and we had much privacy although Rose and Gardner lived just a few steps down from our spot. The neighborhood is quiet and, assuming no physical limitations with hills or a a bit of walking, it was very walkable. We left our rental car behind for the weekend and walked to dinner, and brunch. I recommend Kitchen Mouse for brunch or lunch and Civil Coffee was a tad expensive, but delicious food options and beautiful space. We hit the vintage stores and Gimme Gimme Records, where I found some Bowie and that made me extremely happy. We were able to catch the bus to Downtown and while it took a bit, it was a fun way to see the city. The metro station happened to be closed for the day, but there is also a Metro station within walking distance. The neighborhood also has Highland Bowl, which is a renovated bowling alley and is very gorgeous. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a relaxing, fun spot where you can feel like a local in L.A.
