Heidi's beach cottage is exactly as described. It's central, cozy and great for a base while exploring LA. It was so convenient being able to do laundry on site. The couch was comfortable for relaxing after a long day, kitchen was huge and it was nice to be able to sit outside on the steps. The neighborhood was friendly and quiet. The only think I would of changed was the bed. It was a little unfortable but honesty, with all the great things this cottage had to offer it didn't phase us much!
