My friend and I stayed here to crash somewhere closer to the Rose Bowl than the westside after the Coldplay concert. We took about a 15 minute uber to the area of the stadium from this home. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet although we didn't spot any peacocks or parrots sadly. We felt very comfortable in Catherine's home. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean with a nice scented candle burning when we entered. I was surprised to find out there was a big beautiful puppy in the living room especially because the place was listed as not suitable for pets (in a cage so he didn't get a chance to jump on us which was good and he barked a little initially but for the most part kept quiet.) In the future that might be good to tell potential guests before they show up, especially if people possibly have allergies. Anyway, after shooting a text to our host in the morning, she came down to make us a nice breakfast as advertised which was much appreciated. We traded notes on the concert since Catherine managed to score an assignment as the talented photojournalist that she is at the show after I told her why I was coming to town. Very cool. Ample street parking. Nice pool area although we did not have time to partake. Overall it was a pleasant yet short stay.
