Just concluded my work trip to Malibu where I stayed at Teshi's place.
If you appreciate the pacific coastline but are also looking for a great deal, this is really hard to beat.
As a host Teshi is very pleasant, easy to talk to, and is genuinely a good person.
Teshi was also kind enough to allow me to work on a laptop in his living room while he was out for work, making it seem like you have the entire place to yourself.
The view is great - you can enjoy the sunrise. There are two gas stations a few blocks away AND a grocery store.
Full amenities are in place. I didn't have any issues with the water, the bathroom, or the general room temperature.
Lastly, Teshi has been very responsive, both during check-in and for the duration of my stay.
I am grateful for the opportunity to stay at this spot and hope to return in the near future.
