The picture and description for this listing is VERY accurate. You will enjoy this place whether passing through for the night or a week long stay. It is a cozy, welcoming home away from home that has just about everything you need (bonus: seating to watch the gorgeous sunset over downtown and mountains). Heather (the host) provided a thoughtful welcome basket and even had some essentials on hand that I forgot or could not pack.

I mentioned that I planned on moving to the area and she had plenty of suggestions on great/not-so-great locations in LA and even brought some magazines for navigating the "best of... LA" and its real estate.

I am glad that I had time my last evening (late flight) to sit and chat with her and family over a delicious and healthy home-prepared meal (noteworthy- it inc. fresh avocados from her avocado tree out front!). The casita had such great energy and such a positive aura, I will recommend to all friends that travel to LA.
