Philip’s place was exceptional. The grounds are gorgeous! I would love to spend time here in the warmer months when we could fully take advantage of the pool, bbq area, and all the outdoor spaces in which to curl up with a good book or just enjoy the flowers and trees.
Pictures do not do justice to the bnb itself. It is spacious and well appointed. There were many thoughtful touches throughout the space. The kitchenette was well equipped and had everything we needed to prepare breakfasts and lunches. The bed was very comfortable and attention had been paid throughout the house to make it comfortable.
Philip was a kind and thoughtful host, from leaving us wine and chocolates when we arrived to making himself available for any questions. We got to meet his dog when they were headed out for a walk, and he was extremely well-behaved and friendly.
I would happily return here when I visit L.A. again. It is a hidden gem in a walkable neighborhood.
