What a wonderful, nourishing, and peaceful place to stay in LA! I actually think this outdid the pictures of the room online. It's clean, tastefully decorated, and has a big fat bed for you to stretch out on. And while it's a small view, there is something poignant about the view you do get - peeking over the sprawl through tree branches and the urban landscape. It was conducive to my work, at least.

Joseph and Charles were kind, helpful, and always respectful - the ideal hosts, in my opinion. If it's your first time in LA, they are also a great resource for pointing out the less obvious places to visit.

Location was great, right off Santa Monica Blvd., which will pretty much contain all your shopping, eating, and partying needs for your stay.

The only drawback was that I didn't realise that I couldn't cook there - which is stated in the room description, so totally my fault! Still, if you missed it, just be aware, especially if your stay is longer than a couple of weeks. Joseph and Charles provided a microwave, fridge, tea, etc. so there is room to feed yourself - but you'll be eating out mostly. Not that there's a dearth of awesome restaurants close by anyway!

This comes with the highest reccomendation :)
