Amazing is the only way to describe Taylor and her lovely tree house. She went above and beyond the call of hostess duty. She showed us a great time at the bar she co-owns and introduced us to wonderful people, which led to us extending our stay so we could spend time with Taylor and others we truly consider new friends. The house itself was a perfect respite from whatever hustle and bustle we lived through traversing LA that day. The view is breathtaking, the house cozy and inviting. If you're looking for pristine hotel conditions, then by all means, book a $200 a night hotel for a less special, personal experience. Taylor 's place is woodsy and charming. I found nothing lacking in the cleanliness department. All the rooms, including Taylor 's personal space, were neat and tidy. All linens and towels clean and fresh. And as for the oft' mentioned cats, as someone who has a cat allergy, I can honestly say that I wasn't one bit bothered by them. On the contrary, I found them sweet and friendly, but they certainly knew their boundaries. Once we gently removed the cats from our room, they seemed to know the area was off limits and only visited us in the shared spaces. Our stay culminated in an evening spent cooking, drinking, story-telling, and ache-inducing laughing with new friends. While I can't promise everyone will make such a connection, I can guarantee that Taylor will do her best to make sure your stay is satisfactory and memorable. We will definitely be staying with Taylor again, the sooner, the better!
