Everything was very easy, checking was super convenient even though we arrived at a very late hour. There is a very friendly and curious cat who will let you pet him and play with him! Street parking was convenient (we had a rental car). Ben and Monica also left a great selection of teas, coffees and snacks for us. Much appreciated! Wonderful hosts, very cute little cottage! And conveniently close to LAX and Japantown (for excellent food). Would definitely stay here again!
