Having just relocated to LA for work, I can't speak highly enough of my time with Randy and Cyndie, however short it was. They were absolutely delightful, knowledgeable, and so incredibly warm and welcoming; they always had suggestions for places to see, things to do, and local knowledge that they were quick to share to make my daily commutes easier. They even invited me to a "Finding Dory" screening on Disney's lot when Cyndie was unable to attend as Randy's plus one. They're wonderful, genuinely nice people and very easy to get along with.

The house is tidy, quiet, and filled with music, movies, and books; it's located quite close to the 134, just off Riverside Drive, near the Burbank/Glendale border and equestrian centre, making it easy to get to. Randy's studio sits to the rear of the house and is soundproofed, so there's never any excess noise slipping through the walls. They have two adorable cats and a very sweet, elderly dog named Shadow, all of them are very friendly and spoiled in the best possible way. Randy was in contact with me from the moment I booked to ensure that I got to their house all right and didn't get lost, even providing me with a map (I got lost anyway, though it's not his fault in the least!). I was given shelf space in a cupboard and the refrigerator, a fruit bowl, water, and snacks in my room upon arrival, full access to the kitchen and laundry units, as well as a heads up regarding a spare key so that I could come and go as I pleased.

I couldn't have asked for a better place to begin transitioning to LA or two better, more hospitable people to have spent my time with. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a bit of respite and a homely, welcoming atmosphere.
