This absolute treasure of a Victorian home and its lush tropical garden feel like the quintessential southern CA beach community experience- extremely cool decor, indoor/outdoor living, simplicity and creativity of garden construction. Ashley, our housekeeper, was delightful. It was fun to visit with her, she answered all my questions and made excellent suggestions for coffee, food and groceries. I loved my cottage room in the garden with its singing birds, comfortable conversation areas, fabulous night lighting, and my incredible outdoor shower. I enjoyed the common areas of the house. Love it that reusable coffee pods and clear directions about recycling are provided. This is indeed the best location for seeing or getting to the best parts of the city. The noise of the planes did not bother me, inside I heard only an occasional whoosh, and even outside they aren't that bad.
