We stayed 4 nights at Dean's Cottage. Everything was nice and clean. The kitchen was full equipped. All you need for breakfast was available. The neighborhood was quiet. If you have a car, it's easy to reach main tourist attractions in LA. Also the beaches are very close.
Dean was very friendly and hospitable. He gave us good advices for our trip and served us with bananas. :)
It was a great experience and I totally recommend this cottage!
