Cindy's place is a good value, especially for the area. I grew up going to Malibu every summer so it was really fun to wind up the mountain roads, see the oak trees and smell the ocean. It's a basic basement apartment, nice and clean with a nice toaster oven, mini coffee maker, fridge. The layout is cool, I always like when the bed is tucked away. Nice and dark for sleep. Bathroom is big and clean. Plenty of beach towels and blankets. The private patio area is a major perk. It's a really good value, and Cindy responded right away to any questions I had. I heard footsteps through the roof only once, but I'm a mom so it didn't really bother me, haha, and the rest of the time was very quiet.
