Such a great stay at John's cottage. We live in the neighborhood and were there while our home was being worked on. John and his wife were amazingly thoughtful and accommodating. We can vouch for the area and tell you it's a fantastic neighborhood with beautiful tree-lined streets and great restaurants, super close to Universal Studios and a bunch of studios. Warner Bro's is a 10 min walk away. We slept beautifully on the master bed - we felt like we were in a high-end resort the mattress was so comfortable. Internet worked flawlessly for us. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed - including a full size fridge. We stayed in the winter so it was cool in the mornings but the heater worked great. Backyard was private and quiet. Great place to sit and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee. Cottage was well stocked with everything we needed. It worked very well for the three of us (my husband, 10 yr old daughter and myself). Can't say enough good things!
