I could not have asked or a better experience. Todd's cottage is conveniently located in West Hollywood. Shopping, dining, coffee, bars, everything is very near. I walked to many things I wanted to visit - hiking up Runyon Canyon, hitting up some of the bars on Santa Monica, groceries at Whole Foods, Starbucks Coffee - all can be easily reached walking. Turn right on Santa Monica Blvd. and before you know it you are in Beverly Hills and then at Santa Monica Beach. You're within easy driving distance to many things as well - rent a car and have no fear of LA traffic - google maps easily takes you everywhere from the house. While I was there, I went to Natural History Museum, Science Center, a few L.A. Galaxy Soccer matches, the Zoo, hit up Malibu and Santa Monica beaches - among other things. I enjoyed the nightlife as well. As far as the cottage itself, it is as pictured - such a nice place to stay - kitchen has everything one could need to cook light, delicious meals. The living area is very comfy - since I was there over a week - I spent one or two evenings just kicked back on the couch watching movies - felt just like being at home. There is also the added convenience of washer and dryer on site if you want to pack light. Todd and Jason were both gracious hosts, extremely friendly and ready and willing to answer any questions you might have. The only complaint I have is I couldn't stay longer!
