I whole heartedly recommend Darren's charming cottage to anyone looking to stay in LA. The place is absolutely fantastic, with everything you could need on the inside (a lovely big bathtub in a beautiful bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, a lovely bedroom with a window overlooking a gorgeous green tree that gives you privacy and lets in a cool breeze...etc). The outdoor living room (with a fireplace!), which is right there as you step out of the cottage is nestled in a garden that is a real escape from the city. Roses, gardenias, trees, and beautiful objects and design wherever you look make it hard to leave! The location was also ideal. Easy to get to and within reasonable distance of most places I was planning on going to. As far as Darren, he is the most gracious host I have ever come across. He accommodated me and went out of his way to make me feel at home with his kindness and attention to detail. It would have already been a fantastic stay but he really went above and beyond! I would absolutely stay here again in the future.
Thank you Darren!
