We stayed here between Christmas and New Year's with my in-laws, and brother-in-laws family. It held the 10 of us comfortably: 6 adults and 4 teens. Because of our configuration, one of the teens used a folding mattress/cot supplied in the home, which he said was perfectly comfortable. The home served as an excellent base for our excursions around L.A. It was about 30 minutes from Universal Studios in L.A. traffic, 45 minutes from the La Brea Tar pits and about 45 minutes to the Getty Villa in Malibu. The home is beautiful, the kitchen is especially nice to spend time in. We had a few issues, one with the garbage disposal and one with an overhead light in a bedroom which Doris responded to immediately and had them fixed the same day we contacted her about it. We enjoyed relaxing and spending time with our family in this lovely home.
