I just finished a great stay at Chris's place! I was there for a long stay and really enjoyed myself.
You'll find it located in a more rural part of Altadena, which has a nearby hiking trail, fruit trees and farm animal neighbors. In the evening, sometimes you can see the neighbors riding their horses on the streets. There is a convenient little market a couple of blocks away, as well as an amazing coffee place in the same little shopping area.
Chris's place had everything I needed for a long stay. The kitchen was the perfect size and really clean. There is a comfortable little couch and table to hang out and watch TV. The bed was plenty comfortable. There is a good sized closet for storing clothes. The bathroom had a shower with good pressure and hot water. Chris had two heaters which kept the place nice and warm on those cold nights, but when it warmed up during the day, it was nice to open the windows to let the breeze in. Outside there is a perfect little patio where I could relax and have a glass of wine. Chris also has easy-to-use laundry machines which made it so convenient to wash.
When I had an issue with the cold water handle on the shower, Chris came right away to fix it. He was really responsive to any questions I had.
I would 100% recommend staying at Chris's place for a long or short stay!!
