I stayed in Elizabeth's cottage for a little over a month, and had a great experience. Her guest house was exactly as described, and was very clean and comfortable. With such a long stay, I especially appreciated the comfortable bed and linens, nice bathroom, TV with satellite and DVR, table & chairs, sofa, lots of windows, and the washer and dryer. There was plenty of storage, which was also a plus. Parking was never a problem.
The cottage is located behind Elizabeth's house, and is very private. It also comes with its own private backyard with grass, lemon trees, flowers, and a lounge chair. Elizabeth was always quick to answer any questions I had, but otherwise gave me total privacy.
I would definitely recommend the cottage if you're in the LA area, and I look forward to booking again the next time I'm in LA.
