We absolutely loved our stay at Carlos' loft--there wasn't anything that we'd change! It was my first time to California and staying there was honestly a large part of the trip I loved. The view is absolutely incredible during the day and night (you must look at the stars!!), and Topanga was about a 20-25 minute drive to all the areas you might want to visit (i.e. LA, Bel Air, etc. etc.). It was very clean and comfortable, too. Also, Carlos provided many refreshments within the loft's kitchen which was really useful and pleasant.
Thanks, Carlos! We hope to come back soon and stay at your place.
