Derek and Sylvia were amazing hosts! When doing my research on places where I can surprise my bf for his bday, Derek was prompt to respond and gave me all the pertinent information that I needed. My bf was amazed at how nice their place was, and so was I! Everything looked so modern, but our most favorite feature was definitely the bathroom. Needless to say, their guest house was GORGEOUS! Both Derek and Sylvia couldn't be nicer too, and their dog was a joy to play with! Oh and the location was awesome; it was just a short drive to Abbot Kinney, Venice beach and also Santa Monica. My bf and I were so bummed during our last day because we didn't want to leave lol. I definitely, HIGHLY recommend booking their guest house, you will not be disappointed!!! :)
