This was mine and my girlfriends first experience using Airbnb. And we can both honestly say that this was the best first experience we could have had. Dean was a great host, just as all the previous reviews have said. He was very welcoming and gave us the run down of the place, said we could let him know if we needed anything, and we were pretty much on our own from there. The cottage was private and comfortable. It had all of the necessities and more. If you're looking for somewhere to getaway from the busy LA life, this will be great for you. Everything was 20-30 minutes away which is convenient for vacationers. We also loved the fruit trees around the cottage. This will definitely be a place we'll return to when we're back in the LA area. Thanks for the great experience Dean!
