Ilda and Mike's home is incredible, and I absolutely felt like I was staying at a private resort. I stayed for a week in their guesthouse surrounded by beautiful flora and fauna. Ilda provided me with a yoga mat (upon request) and two gift baskets of fresh chicken and quail eggs, candy, and wine. She was responsive, kind, and accommodating. The location is also hard to beat if you enjoy the outdoors. Just a few blocks away is Brand park where you can hike the Verdugo mountains, and after, in the warmer months, take a dip in their pool. The guesthouse itself is clean, comes with all the essential cooking ware, and sits privately in the backyard nestled between citrus trees. It was so hard to leave this magical place!
