We had the most magical stay in Whittier thanks to Jenny, Bernie, and their beautiful guesthouse! Jenny is an exceptional host, responding to questions quickly and welcoming us warmly to her place. My fiancée and I have stayed in plenty of AirBNB’s, and we both agree that Jenny’s place is by far our favorite. Let me count some ways: (1.) Great location! This place is on a quiet residential street in a safe neighborhood filled with historic houses --perfect for couples looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. The freeway is close, which means easy access to many nearby cities, too (Pasadena, Santa Monica, Laguna, etc.). This can be ideal for people traveling for work. (2.) Amazing guesthouse! Jenny did a phenomenal job with the design and decorations –my fiancée never stopped ooh-ing and aah-ing at the charming details (painted birds, English tea cups, delicate crochets, etc.). On top of the charming details, the space itself is also very clean, exceedingly comfortable, and better than pictured. Oh, and this really is a hummingbird haven! We saw many lovely birds during our stay –such a treat. (3.) Exceptional hosts! Jenny and her husband, Bernie, are ideal hosts. It shows in their attention to detail and conscientious efforts to make their guests comfortable. I felt welcome the moment we met, as if I was coming home to a good friend. Snacks, drinks, towels, and bathroom amenities were all thoughtfully provided as well. They even invited us to meet their two adorable dogs, Louie and Lucy. We love dogs, so meeting them was the highlight of our stay. :)
For these reasons, I highly recommend this delightful guesthouse. My fiancée and I can’t wait to return in the future!
