This cute cottage/guest house is accurately described. It was very clean and well- appointed. It is situated up an incline, so you need to be able to get up/down a few stairs to access - just as described.
We were in LA for the Rose Bowl, so this area was geographically good for our needs. It is in a safe neighborhood, but not a neighborhood where you can expect to walk to much in the way of attractions or quaint retail areas.
Two notes that may matter to some - there is an A/C window unit in the bedroom but no heater. The heating unit is in the front room. This heats the front area of the house well, but the bedroom is chilly on colder nights. Being that this is LA, I'm sure most of the time, this is a non-issue. There was adequate bedding to keep cozy.
Issue 2 worth knowing - the single sleeper sofa is not the most comfortable. It is a very thin sofa mattress that's pretty bumpy. If you need 2 beds, as we did, you may want to bring your own air mattress, which might be more comfy.
For the price, this was a very good value that fit our needs & the host was very responsive.
