Best for
Olive Glen best suits travelers who want a self-catering, apartment-style setup, thanks to the in-unit kitchen, washer, and reliable basics like air conditioning and free Wi‑Fi. It’s also a practical choice for guests who plan to use public transit, with multiple bus stops within a short walk, and for drivers who value free parking.
Travel tips
If you plan to get around without a car, the 120th St & Trojan Ave and 120th St & Normandie Ave bus stops are both within roughly a 2–3 minute walk. For flights, LAX is the closest major airport at about 9.9 km away, but allow extra time for Los Angeles traffic patterns. With a shared kitchen on-site and an in-unit kitchen as listed, consider picking up groceries if you prefer to cook rather than rely solely on nearby dining.
