Carrie's was a great host. Her place is in a great location to explore nearby beach towns and west LA. The room is small, but comfy and ideal for solo travellers. There are a couple of good coffee shops close by, but there is a Kuerig in the room if you want a quick cup. The area is very quiet and perfect for sleeping. Carrie was quick with a response when I had questions. I would consider returning for a future trip.
