My boyfriend and I stayed at Bill's place for the first month that we were living in Los Angeles and we couldn't have picked a better place to land. Bill was an exceptional host with suggestions on where to live, where to eat, where to buy oysters, where to practice yoga and more. We spent most of our time in the awesome area he has set up outside which is always in the shade and has a fan installed to keep you cool. We utilized his awesome outdoor grill for most of our dinners and thoroughly enjoyed jumping in his lovely pool on hot days. The neighborhood is fantastic. While you are close enough to the city to be a part of the goings ons there we found it nice to relax in the more intimate and personable shops and restaurants that Burbank offered. We would highly recommend staying with Bill if you can.
