James' place is as depicted, clean, safe, quiet. huge plus: free laundry! thanks James! perfect location to live in LA close to a variety of food choices, not too far from downtown (travelling to most places, east to annaheim, west to Burbank is pretty much same time). the neighborhood is so pretty and scenery esp. in the morning! very peaceful.
only call out are that since this is a private room, even with own entrance, we can still hear other tenants across the wall. and the backyard fits up to 4 cars, driving in the relatively narrow sideway to the backyard and getting out could be a bit challenging to my not so perfect driving skills haha! I was lucky to rent a small, compact car!
overall, great host, cute place, will come again!
