Welcome to the urban heart of LA! Suite Clara (upstairs) is located close to Hollywood, USC, Downtown, museums (Natural History, Science Center, MOCA, LACMA), and Culver City. We are also close to major transportation lines including the Metro Expo Line, and 25 minutes from LAX. Our guest house location is ideal for the business traveler, couples and families. It provides the ideal jumping-off point to explore all areas of the city, and a comfortable place to come home to each night.

The space
Suite Clara is a newly build 385 square foot upstairs studio apartment with your own private entrance. If safety is your concern the structure was built with all the latest Los Angeles City building code requirements as of 2016. Some of these features include; fire alarm system connect with ceiling sprinklers, green building features as well as an electric vehicle charging station available to all our guests.

The cottage is a separate structure from our 1906 owner-occupied main house, set in a lush backyard behind a gated entrance. You can come and go as you please.

Inside you will find a fully stocked kitchen with a fridge/freezer, full oven, microwave, coffee maker, and toaster (coffee, tea, creamer, and sugar complimentary). Pots, pans, cutlery, and flatware are all included. Cooks ourselves, should you find you need spices or cooking ingredients, let us know and we'll do our best to accommodate. Gather around the guesthouse table, outside at the bistro table on your own private deck or around the fire pit.

The living area features state of the art extremely quite heater and air conditioning unit, and a 30" flat screen smart TV. The ultra-clean full bathroom with tub and shower, is stocked with towels, hand soap, shampoo and conditioner and a hairdryer. It’s equipped with a tank-less water heater, which provides endless hot water.

At the end of your day, crawl into crisp sheets atop a new memory foam mattress queen size bed. In addition there is a chair that converts to a twin bed for additional guests and a pack-n-play is available for any small children.

Always thrilled by the convenience of our location, we are 20 minutes or less to USC, Downtown, the Grove, LACMA, La Brea Tar Pits, Beverly Hills, Culver City and Hollywood. We're 20-25 minutes away from UCLA, Universal Studios, several beach cities (including, Santa Monica, Venice, and Marina Del Rey), and the Getty. Times are approximate and pending traffic, and we are happy to advise best routes and travel times to your desired destination. The bus stop is two blocks away and has a direct line to the Metro. There is ample free street parking directly in front of the main house. Within three+ blocks walking distance is Starbucks, a library, a grocery store, restaurants and a bakery.

You can come and go from the guesthouse at any time but please note if our charming, overly extraverted daughters are home, they will want to great you with a friendly welcome as they are often playing in the shared space in our yard. Have no fear, once inside the guesthouse you will have all the privacy you need when we host Airbnb guests. However if you travel with children (and grown-ups) are welcome to enjoy the trampoline, treehouse, the swings and slide.

Guest access
Our guests will have access to all of our back yard space. This includes play structure, slide, trampoline, swings, bbq and fire pits, and picnic table.

Other things to note
Guests are offered one off-street parking spot for an average size vehicle (large pick up trucks, vans or campers may not fit) in our front driveway. Please do not park in the back yard behind the gate. If you prefer, there is plenty of street parking in our neighborhood but watch the posted signs for street cleaning days on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 10:00 am-12 noon. Watch the parking restrictions. If your car is parked during the restricted times you could get a parking ticket.

Lives in Los Angeles, California
I'm warm, authentic and love to entertain. I love to spend time with my husband and three girls, cook, tend my vegetable garden, read and just enjoy a glass of wine with friends. We hope our guests enjoy our place and Los Angeles as much as we do.
