Coco & John accepted my last minute rental request and the place was terrific and ready when I arrived. Still, Coco came out the first night to present a clean, dry area rug that wasn't ready when I checked in.
The place has a great 'on the road vibe, made more so by bathroom fixtures and furnishings straight out of the movie "Gas, Food, Lodging!" The whole cottage cooled down easily and I enjoyed total comfort throughout my stay. So many nice touches (coffee, breakfast items, Apple TV and a nice sized TV) but most importantly, a comfortable bed and fast, strong wifi so I could get work done.
Lastly, an easy, great location with ample street parking and a lovely setting in the hosts' backyard took me away from the rest of LA while there - just what I wanted for a few hours of peace and quiet.
