I had an extended stay (almost a month) here when I first moved to the LA area and was searching for an apartment. The space is definitely small but had everything I needed, including a full kitchen with a range and microwave (no oven, though). My hosts were very gracious and invited me to park in the garage and use their laundry facilities. I really enjoyed exploring Alhambra and trying the restaurants on main street. I recommend the Sunday farmer's market! The area has a quiet suburban feel and seems very safe, but there are still plenty of restaurants and bars nearby. This is a perfect spot for a solo traveler or a couple that doesn't mind their space being a bit cramped.
