Very Charming Home
Very charming home with all the essentials. The photos accurately reflect the property. The host reached out prior to our stay to answer questions and provided immediate response throughout our stay. It’s in a good neighborhood with grocery stores and many restaurants nearby.

Perfect LA Bungalow
Andy, our landlord, did an incredible job creating a warm, well-equipped, very attractive 2-bedroom, 2-bath bungalow even providing a book about the builder of this of this charming 1951 house. Located conveniently near to grocery stores, restaurants and freeways. The neighborhood was very quiet.Andy was speedy in texting answers to our questions And offering helpful suggestions It was a wonderful relaxing vacation thanks to our stay.

Simply the best house & host you might find
This gem of a house is lovingly, meticulously refurbished and cared for by its owner and host, Andy. Inside and out, it is beautifully detailed, completely comfortable, and has new major appliances, a chef's range, coffee station, a Nest thermostat, etc. Pristine landscaping and a clean, private pool are icing on the cake.It's more important to note that Andy is a superb host and an even better person. My family rented his home when my mother and her caregiver needed to evacuate during the Palisades fire. We didn't know how long it would be before she might (or might not) move back home. Not only was Andy sweet, extremely helpful and accommodating to the ladies as guests, he also worked with us to keep a roof over their heads during this stressful time. He communicated fluidly and graciously allowed us to take it day by day as we needed. For all of his help, patience and understanding, we are extremely grateful.

Perfect Spot!!
If you're looking to have a wonderful retreat to come home to at the end of a day sightseeing, day at the beach, shopping, or experiencing Universal, this place is perfect!! The home is a gorgeously decorated, cozy bungalow in a beautiful neighborhood with ease of access to busy streets and major highways alike. The host, Andy, could not be more accommodating and easy to work with. I truly believe he's as interested in you having an enjoyable, relaxing time as you are - not always the case with other hosts. You need not look further than this wonderful spot!!

Great 5 day stay with family

Cozy home with everything you need!
We are a local family of 4 who needed to relocate for a few days during filming in our home. This property was perfect! It was so cute, cozy, clean, comfortable and in the most convenient location! Close to everything. The host was so sweet and communication was great. Will definitely stay here next time we need to relocate.

Magical LA Stay
An exceptional experience from start to finish. Our stay was perfect, our host outstanding and every part of the trip magical. This property is perfect for a family (we are a family of four with two kids, 9 and 10) or even for a couple looking for a getaway in Los Angeles. It is worth every penny and we truly felt like treasured guests. The amenities in every room are thoughtful and considered. The bedrooms and bathrooms are well-appointed and comfortable, the pool and loungers are a welcome respite and the home is absolutely charming. In particular, the bed linens felt quite luxurious. Andy is a remarkable host: upfront, communicative, helpful, incredibly responsive and most of all, kind. This includes communication with the host leading up to our stay which was helpful beyond measure. You simply won’t find a better place to stay in LA that provides such a fantastic overall experience. We look forward to a return trip as soon as possible.
