I am from the amazing town of Monrovia. It was such a treat to stay in the residential area of my old home town in the little casita provided by Brad and Val. They were nice and friend and swapped bear stories with me when I spotted one of the furry residents of the hillside (BEAR) roaming around in broad day light! I loved all the beautiful foliage and thoughtful touches inside the home. The bed is super big and comfy. I will definitely come back again when I visit my old home.
