The home spans about 1,397 sq ft and is configured as a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom unit, aiming to suit families or small groups who want more space than a typical hotel room. As a multi-level property, guests have noted an upper-floor front entrance with parking located below.

Location & What’s Nearby

Public transit access is a key convenience, with Garfield/Park bus stop about 197 m away and additional stops nearby at Alamansor St & Los Higos St (476 m) and Garfield Ave & Commonwealth Ave (639 m). For rail connections, Cal State LA train station is about 5.06 km away.

Best for

This property is best for families or small groups who want a true two-bedroom, two-bath layout and the ability to cook and do laundry on site (kitchen + washer). It also suits guests who plan to use public transit, with multiple bus stops within about a 10-minute walk and a train station a short drive away.

Travel tips

Plan arrival logistics in advance: guests have reported that check-in communication can be unclear, and the front entrance is on an upper level while parking is down below. If you want early check-in, confirm any fees ahead of time—one guest reported being charged $60 for access around noon. For getting around without a car, the Garfield/Park bus stop is the closest at roughly 197 m.

What guests say

Reviews highlight the property as a newer, lightly used-feeling building in a good location. Guests appreciate the overall quality of the home but point to housekeeping as a key area for improvement, specifically noting dirty or grimy floors. Another recurring issue is communication around check-in, with at least one guest describing the process as not well explained. An additional friction point mentioned is an early check-in charge that was not clearly disclosed in the listing, despite the guest choosing to use the option.
