This is a great little hideaway in the foothills of LA. Everything was as described. Spotlessly clean, quiet, and very comfortable. Its near-silent AC, great Wi-Fi, and convenient power outlets - even USB ports - helped me get my work done and when I was tired of staring at my laptop, I got to jump into the pool to chill out. While I didn’t meet Ryan in person, I felt his caring presence close by as he communicated with me through out my stay and kept me updated about goings-on around the house. I enjoyed my stay and will definitely come back again to this wonderful cottage.
