Teshi was very personable and helpful. I pretty much had my own schedule so I didn't spend a lot of time at the house, but he was very gracious when we hung out and interacted. If you need suggestions he can advise you and will engage with you as much or as little as you wish. I felt very welcome in his home. There was plenty of privacy as there is a full bedroom with a bathroom to yourself. It's conveniently located and a great deal for Malibu.
