This sweet little house was a perfect home base for my son and I to visit universities in and around Southern California. Very nice accommodations, comfortable beds, good shower and a nice bonus to have outdoor seating for a morning coffee. The neighborhood is quiet and residential and just a short drive to shops, restaurants and the beach. It's also a short (steep) walk up to Signal Hill Park, with a stunning view of all of SoCal. Highly recommended! (One note about the driveway - it, too, is very steep. If you have a sports car that rides low, park in the street, or prepare to scrape your bumper.)
