Leslie is a sweetheart. Her positive energy is reflected all over, from the beautiful interior of the room to the family paintings and lush exterior outside. Upon walking in, she offered me fresh spring water and was helpful about local places to eat and go hiking. The bed was very comfortable and I enjoyed waking up and starting my morning by stepping out the sliding glass door to the private front yard. She even made me coffee! I hope I have another opportunity to stay at her charming little peace sanctuary in the palisades! Area is beautiful and close five minute drive to the beaches in Malibu. Easy parking too :) Hope to be back soon.
