Stayed here for four nights and truly liked the room and comfortable bed and great breakfast. Walk able distance to the art of living center and USC campus. You will not be disappointed by your stay here.

I attended a conference and was very happy to find this B&B in walking distance of the convention center and downtown area. A pleasant alternative to the larger hotels. They do their best to accommodate your personal preferences for breakfast. Good quality rooms and nice smelling garden to sit and read or work on your laptop in the evening.
