Best airbnb experience ever! Marty and Carla were the perfect hosts. Communication was clear and easy ahead of time. The guest house is a hidden gem (I'm actually hesitant to write this review because I don't want people to know about it so that it's available the next time we head down to LA :) ). The bed was comfortable and Marty and Carla (I think mostly Carla :) ) made sure to include a lot of amenities not usually included in an airbnb rental - bottled water, some soft drinks in the newly installed mini-fridge (yes, we were the lucky renters who got to take the mini-fridge on his/her maiden voyage), toiletries, coffee and tea, etc. Also, there was much attention paid to the little details that made the cottage feel very "homey". When you look at the location on the map, you'll see that the location is close to a freeway, and yet you'd never know it staying at the cottage. The back yard where the cottage is located feels very secluded. You feel as if you've stepped out of the neighborhood and into a little vacation gem that could be anywhere. .......and did I mention that Marty and Carla are really nice folks.
I could keep going on about my great experience, but I think you get the picture :).
