Visiting L.A. for several events, and needed a central location for my wife and a few friends. These cottages were absolutely perfect for our needs. And the owners/managers were friendly, communicative, helpful and professional. We would absolutely stay again....some details of our time there are below. Note, we stayed in two of the four units...the two street-facing units, so this review will be posted for both units.
Parking: No off-street parking, but we easily found parking in front of the house and/or very nearby (few houses away at most). Couple of the days had alternate side of the street parking that limited spaces a tad, but absolutely not an issue for us.
Neighborhood: Super quiet, and the homes/neighborhood is lovely. Walkable to downtown Culver City, near Jackson's Market which has an incredible outdoor seating area for quiet coffees/snacks/light meals. We walked about a mile to grab ice cream, assorted meals, etc. Easy drive to grocery stores and other needs. Very safe area, and did not feel like we were in the city. My wife and the friends with us were thrilled with the area.
Cottages: Well-stocked, and had everything we needed. We didn't really use the stove, but ample space to cook if needed. Full fridge, and plenty of counter space. Bedding was comfy, and the cross-breezes with open windows/doors (have screens) were great. There were guests in the two back cottages, and we could hear them chatting, but there's enough division by fencing/hedges to never feel intruded upon. We used the shared common areas, and never felt crowded. Unfortunately, we did not use the bikes, outdoor tubs or fire pit, but they all were nice. The landscaping for the property is well-maintained and lush, and the overall setup of the property obviously had some thought put into it. The indoor spaces had creative touches, as did the outdoor areas. We spent a lot of time on the front porch, as there's a lovely fenced-in front yard. Functional, stylish and cozy overall. I wouldn't recommend for large parties, unless you booked all the units, but for couples, close friends and small families, we'd recommend.
We didn't have any complaints. And even if we could find something we didn't like, based on our interactions with the hosts, we'd fully expect them to resolve them quickly. In fact, they allowed us to check-in a little early since our flights were earlier, and addressed an unexpected issue with professionalism and generosity. We will be back!
