Rehab.com review for Summit Malibu

"Serenity was very welcoming and homey. It wasn't like other places where they're really strict. ... everyone from the kitchen staff to the maids was really warm and welcoming like family."

"The lawsuit further alleges that the room allegedly did not have functioning smoke detectors … a condition that, if proven, would raise additional safety concerns in a region historically impacted by wildfires."
