This was a real speedy stop in between leaving LA n headin' to Chicago, but Valerie has made such a relaxing, friendly home that I felt like i'd had a week's chilling rather than 2 nights! I only met Valerie briefly but she entrusted the house to me, and the cat! A contemporary, airy space where you can breathe, lovely comfy room and delicious little goodies to munch. I'd love to return for a longer stay and just enjoy the mountain bike that sits invitingly in the garden! Thanks Valerie - a great place!
