Vincent greeted us as we arrived. The address was easy to find and we were happy to have a parking spot off of the street. The quiet neighborhood is small and lovely.

The backyard cottage is quite spacious - we never felt cramped. King-sized bed to stretch out on; full kitchen and dining area; armoire; spacious shower in the bathroom. The cottage is well-insulated. We noticed because our first day there was quite hot, about 90 degrees, and the cottage was still quite comfortable inside. We never turned on the A/C.

The location is perhaps 1/4 mile away from Universal Studios - very convenient if you are planning to visit the theme park. Also close to shopping, movie theaters, etc.
