What a beautiful place! Perfect for two, this new cottage is a dream spot for those visiting the Monrovia or Arcadia area. Close to grocery stores and the charming downtown Monrovia shops and restaurants, this is a great place to unwind, relax and travel to sites around LA.
Here are notes for future visitors:
1. The cottage is on a hill on the edge of a forest. So there is plenty of wildlife—fur and feather varieties—to enjoy. The hosts are available but by no means intrusive. The neighborhood is walkable and quiet, though walking to the restaurants in Monrovia is a bit too far at night.
2. You’ll need a car but if your vehicle is super sized, you may find parking difficult. We rented a Nissan Rouge Sport, and managed to back into the spot with multiple 3-point turns.
3. WiFi signal is good. Working from the cottage proved easy.
4. The kitchen is stocked with cooking oils, spices and coffee pods. There is a washer-dryer unit and plenty of laundry detergent and room for hanging clothes.
Overall, this was one of the nicest experiences I’ve booked on AirBnB. Kudos to the hosts for such a splendid place!
