I may have only stayed a brief 3 nights with Valerie but I wish I would have found her earlier! I came in late that night because I was coming from the east coast (11pm) and luckily she was hosting a party so she greeted me with the warmest smile I have come across in along time. She showed me to my room (looks EXACTLY like the picture) which has a very comfy mattress, large (esp. for California) with a very good sized closet and also a TV hooked up to the satellite. I worked night shift so I never saw her after our initial meet, but she responded to texts when I could not find the keys and also sent me a farewell text. If I ever need housing, I will most definitely come back here! Sweet hostess, lovely cat who loves cuddles and being rubbed and also a beautiful neighbourhood in the hills close to supermarkets, Starbucks and el camino. Thank you so much again Valerie!
