What a gem this little place is! Within walking distance of the campus on 23rd Street, there actually is a calm, quiet little sanctuary. A Victorian turn-of-the-century house converted into an inn, with friendly and helpful owners, surrounded by lush gardens where they grow their own mint, oranges, lemons...the rooms were on the small side but very comfortable, and I...

Our daughter got us tickets for the Rolling Stones concert in Los Angeles last week. We needed to find a place to stay, fairly close to the Staple Center right in the heart of Los Angeles.

My husband has stayed at The Inn at 657 several times and has always come back with rave reviews. He was right!! I thought he was exaggerating about the genuine hospitality and wonderful breakfasts, but I was equally impressed and delighted with Patsy and the Inn. We thoroughly enjoyed ‘lingering’ over a delicious homemade breakfast complimented by lively conversation. It... More
