Vanessa's guest house exceeded our expectations. First of all, the communication was superb and efficient. We knew we were in good hands before we even got there! The guest house is ADORABLE!!! Tucked in a lovely backyard with a beautiful lemon tree out front, the guest house is spacious, sparkling clean, and welcoming. The kitchen is ready to go, having laundry right there was life-saver and the bathroom is bright and cute. The couch turns into another bed if need be and the dining room table and chairs were perfect for eating and doing work on my laptop. The two dressers cam in handy, as well. Oh! The bed is super comfortable! Lots of extra blankets, sheets and pillows on hand will suit anyone's sleeping needs. The street is quiet with plenty of parking and a short walk to Magnolia St. takes you to super cute, eclectic shops and independent coffee shops. We loved the neighborhood!! The host family belongs in the Airbnb Hall of Fame for taking us in with 40 minutes notice when we were evacuated from the fires near Malibu. They were as generous as they were kind and friendly and gave us plenty of space, too. They are totally who you want as neighbors!!! I cannot recommend this place highly enough in regard to location, coziness, wonderful hospitality and cleanliness. A perfect stay at a time when we needed it more than we knew. Thank you for everything, Vanessa and family!
