They have great taste and the place is uncluttered yet warm and inviting. It had all the essentials. We were traveling with our 21 month daughter, who loved their kids. John unexpectedly provided a pack n play, dolls, books, and extra blankets. It was very thoughtful. She played in the yard and we enjoyed Mexican limes off their tree.
The walkway on their driveway to where we stayed is wide and away from the main house that it felt private enough for a detached rear cottage. And they gave us total privacy. We couldn’t tell when they were home, except for the car missing from their driveway at times. Note: their car is in the driveway at the front of the house so we never heard it coming or going.
The neighborhood is very quiet and very centrally located. We stayed Friday to Sunday and the street parking was surprisingly very easy (yes I was skeptical).
We would definitely book again for our next weekend visit to LA from San Diego.
