I had a wonderful week at Lesley and Ned's place instead of a dreary stay at a hotel for a work trip to Pasadena. From the comfy bed to the amazing bathroom to the incredible A/V set up (with spectacular movie choices!), the backyard cottage was an oasis after a long day of work. There's also a pool and gas fire pit nearby though I did not get a chance to enjoy those amenities. Lesley and Ned could not have been more friendly and helpful before, during, and after the stay. Put this place on your wish list when visiting the LA area!
