We stayed at Andrea’s place while visiting colleges in Southern California. We arrived after dark and Andrea had left the lights on for us which made us feel instantly at home. The location was perfect for us as it served as home base while toured 3 different universities surrounding the area. The cottage is in the back of her home, separate from the main house, in a very safe neighborhood and extremely quiet! I would highly recommend this place, and Andrea as a host. She was very communicative, kind and flexible.
