This little studio is incredibly cute and it was almost the perfect home away from home for me. In ALMOST every respect, I would give a 5 star. I was there for 2 months, so I have a lot of good things to say! I have a reason for bumping it down to 4 star and I will not say it until the very end so the you read all the positive things about the place and about Dorothy. First, I was here on a special project and I had some special requirements I had to fulfill to make the place acceptable for me to work from home in that location. Dorothy went above and beyond to help me make sure that all my requirements were fulfilled. We had so many communications back and forth and she always answered my questions. I was not sure about the length of time that would be needed to complete my project and Dorothy agreed to block off a month more than what I paid for (I paid for 2 months up front and she blocked off the 3rd month) to give me some leeway on the timeline. The studio itself is SO cute, cosy and in such a beautiful neighborhood, right at the foothill of the Angeles mountains. There is a beautiful state park, walking distance from the house (Eaton park) and I enjoyed many relaxing walks in nature, smelling all the scents of the park, flowers, rain, etc... The landscape is really nice. There are multiple different rose bushes, a peach tree, a lime tree, an orange tree, an apple tree, interesting cacti, etc... The neighborhood is safe and quiet and there is plenty of street parking (the front unit gets the driveway parking, so you will have to park in the street, but it was never a problem). The bathrooms (yes, there are 2 bathrooms in that little studio!!!) are great! The master bathroom has 2 sinks, a wonderful, deep bathtub with jets and an amazing separate shower. The bed is VERY comfortable (tempur medic mattress). The linen and bedding was comfortable and clean (although I would recommend that they switch to scent-free laundry soap because the linen and blankets smelled too fragrant for me). There was plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, several bath towels. There is a laundry room on the premises, which you can access at any time for free. The kitchen was fully stocked. Dorothy's assistant (Sylvia) was super nice and helpful and does a great job cleaning. There is a Whole Foods and a full shopping area 2.5 miles down the road (pretty much on a straight line), including Best Buy, Nordstroms Rack, BBB, Ralphs, RiteAid, Ross, etc, etc, etc... So no shortage of shopping amenities. So... why the bump down to 4 stars? 1. Minor point: there is no oven in the kitchen. There is a full fridge, a stove stop and a microwave, but no oven. Minor annoyance. I got myself a crockpot for...
