Thanks to Carrie for allowing me book the place on a short notice.
I am an international traveler and visit a lot of hotels regularly. I think my stay went well at this place, better than a lot of hotels because the place was in a tranquil neighborhood, apparently safe, close to the beach (I took regular morning jogs to the beach), host was very nice and helpful and they ensured that I did not feel out of place by keeping everything up well at the place.
If I visit LA again, I would definitely ask Carrie to be kind enough and allow me to be their guest.
