Jane's cottage was really terrific. I was in Burbank for a week on business, and it was great to return each night to someplace that felt like "home."

The house is totally private, and it's set off the main road behind Jane's main house. All the rooms were great (bedroom, bathroom, living room, kitchen), and the gas stove came in handy when cooking eggs for breakfast.

While I really didn't have a chance to hang out in the outdoor space, it was really nice and seemed like it would be a great place to relax and read a book, or have a drink with friends.

I was on my own for this trip but I think this would be a great spot for a couple, or to share with a friend (there's a pull-out sofa bed in the living room).
