Small gem in the south of Cali

This is a lovely small hotel, very clean, safe and comfortable. Staff was always helpful and kind. Good hearty warm breakfast was included but they didn’t have fresh coffee. Only instant coffee available. The area is safe and nice, though noisy during the day. Calm and silent at night. Close to everything at the heart of Cali's universities and southern comercial hub.

Good place, different than normal hotel!

Nice place, but it's not really a hotel. It feels more like a persons house with nice people attending you. One thing I did not like was not being able to get into the building with ringing the doorbell and waiting for someone to open the gate and doors! Other than that, it's a nice place.
