Everything and more!
My wife and I stayed for 4 days as part of our honeymoon and it couldn't have went better. The house was better than described. Everything was clean. The check in, check out process was smooth and the owner stayed in touch whenever needed with quick responses. Unlike some Vrbo owners the owner was there when needed but not overbearing. We visited in late October and were afraid that the pool would be closed but the owner made sure that wasn't the case. I highly recommend this house and we'll definitely stay again on our next trip west.

Great stay!
We traveled from PA to stay on the west coast for first time. We really enjoyed our stay here! The pool and back yard are great and even with being on a main road, it was quiet and peaceful! Great location and price for place to stay when going to Universal. Close to highway for day trips we took to Hollywood and Santa Monica. Lots of towels and clean comfortable bedding.

Unforgettable Stay at Shawn beautiful home
Shawn is by far one of the best host i ever had , he provided so much details for my family I so that our space could go as smoothly as possible. He's very quick to respond to all of my questions and check in with me to makesure everything was good . He gave us peace of privacy and comfort .The house was exactly like what was shown in the picture if not better . He provided me with a early checkin , the house was very spacious and peaceful, my family absolutely enjoyed the pool and the backyard space and the beautiful lights . The area had multiple street parking in the front of the house as welll as the back . Also the backyard can fit one car in the drive way as well as you would be able to park a extra car in the back alley blocking the driveway of the hiuse . I strong recommend shawn place to everyone that is looking a nice place to stay and enjoy with their family ,i would absolutely stay here again and again if possible 😊

Wonderful stay, perfect location, comfy house, great hosts.
We stayed there on a recent family trip to Universal Studios. The house has a great floor plan for families and room for everyone. The beds were comfy, the house was well stocked and maintained and the place was super clean. From the moment we booked, the hosts keep in good contact with us. It was very clear that this property is managed be experienced people who care about taking care of their guests. I also appreciated we had lots of TV/entertainment options and it wasn’t confusing to figure out how to work everything. There is a Trader Joe’s super close to the house too, so we could stock up with fresh/healthy food options. I didn’t feel gouged on the price or cleaning fees. Really, this was one of my best experiences renting a house. Thank you!!

Good place to stay
We stayed at the house for 5 nights. Our main purpose of the stay was to visit Universal Studio Hollywood and it was about 20-25 minutes away. It is in a quiet neighborhood. Parking was easy to find in front of the house. We did some minor cooking and kitchen had everything that we needed. Although the weather was little cloudy and cold during the most of our stay we enjoyed playing in the pool when it was sunny. Communication about check in/out and questions were very prompt and answered quickly. We would stay again if we visit in the area in the future.

Ideal location & Everything you need!
We travelled to LA area for a few days of family time before I had to attend work meetings. The house was ideally located and a quick drive into LA and around for activities. The pool was great for relaxation and cooling from the sun as well as having a covered area to escape the sun but enjoy being outside. Bedrooms were open and airy, beds comfortable, kitchen had everything you need and the living room was a great play to watch a movie and relax after a busy day. Plenty of space for everyone :) Also, dont miss Sol y Luna for food and happy hour -- AMAZING!!

Terrible Experience
This was terrible accommodation. The house smelled strongly of marijuana on arrival. Obviously had been smoked in. We spent half a day of our vacation washing bedding because of smell and stains. House wasn’t clean. Dishes needed to be rewashed, mold growing in bathroom. Broken hair dryer and sink not draining. No plug in bathtub. A possum got in under the house through broken windows and made horrible noises keeping everyone awake on night.
