The casita was immaculate--from the bathroom to the carefully stacked books, it really was a clean freak's dream. We are a family of four (including 17- and 20-year-old sons) and there was enough space for us to coexist happily. The front porch/stoop gets the morning sun. The note on arrival with a basket of all kinds of goodies was welcoming, and though we arrived late, it was easy to get in, with a designated parking space and a personalized door lock. Kirstin was quick to reply to texted questions--though there were few--and although we saw the family in passing, they gave us our privacy. The location was also great: close to the freeway, but on a quiet street. Glendale Blvd. was easily reached by a pleasant 5-minute walk, with nice spots for coffee/tea, pastries, a bookstore, etc. We would definitely return on future LA visits!
