Shelley's guesthouse was well located, well appointed and wonderfully kept. I stayed at her place for about 4 days and had everything I needed, including a heater due to unusually cool temperatures for LA. Shelley was very attentive and happily adjusted my check-in arrangements when my meetings disrupted my original arrival time. I felt very at home on her lovely property. The neighbourhood is great if you have a car, as there is parking and it is 10-25 mins (traffic) from every major center. I didn't walk anywhere around this neighbourhood however, mostly residential and near two bigger/busy streets including the freeway. This was great for me on this trip as I was driving a lot across town and didn't have any long journeys - but did have to drive out to find some happening places to walk and eat. Shelley was quick to offer great restaurant suggestions wherever I was headed, and even made sure I had breakfast snacks for my early flight / check out. I would definitely recommend Shelley's place to anyone coming to LA for a few days, needing a nice base point for multiple neighbourhood visits.
