We really enjoyed our stay! The house is great, with a heated pool we used several times, and a lovely living space! The location was also great for Universal and dining out. Would definitely stay again!

A place to stay
The home was adequate and was as advertised and was in a great location. We attended the shepherd's conference, so it was really great! I would stay here again!
My family and I had a great stay at this place. The communication with the property manager was excellent from the moment we landed in LA. The pool and jacuzzi was spot on and hanging out by the pool side was one of the best highlights of our trip. Overall a great stay.
Our family was planning a pick trip to LA to see Universal Studios and Hollywood. This cute bungalow and pool were in great condition, in a quiet neighborhood, with easy access to everything we needed! Will definitely recommend and stay here again!

Great Family Vacation
Very cool house with tons of space to enjoy. The pool was the perfect temperature. We never left the house all weekend because it was so relaxing. Pool and BBQ fun all weekend.
This property is all you will need and more. My boys are asking us, already, when can we book it again.
It served us well while in LA.
Pay the heat fee and enjoy it. We loved this offered feature.
Great location, it seemed that whenever we needed to go some where it was just 10-20 mins away, including Burbank Airport. The house is very clean, very nice towels and sheets were perfect. Plenty of televisions, very handy to catch the NBA Finals and the beginning of the Euro Cup. Television outside on the patio with high top with firepit and great grill. Nice compliment of appliances too.
The house is well maintained owner was very responsive. Pool instructions could be clearer. However the property manager was in contact and very helpful getting it working for us. Ac worked well for our stay. Having the ability to control the thermostat was a welcome feature.
Our family of 4 stayed for 6 nights in this immaculately clean house in a safe-feeling street very near to Universal and not far from the Griffith Observatory. Room sizes were great and the addition of the dressing room was ideal to keep cases & packing etc. Appliances were all large & made the difference to our stay; humongous washer & drier! Pool ticked the box for the kids & was heated upon request. The open-plan living kitchen area was a fab space for our family after a busy day exploring LA. Would highly recommend, thanks for having us!
Our family really enjoyed staying here. It was in a great location, less than 5 minutes from the freeway, and close to Universal Studios. Very clean home with great spaces. Owners were good at communicating quickly to help fix small issues we had at the beginning. The pool was never cleaned and has no cover, so it was a little dirty with outside debris, but it wasn’t a big issue. The house was well suited with amenities although we did wish laundry detergent was provided. Overall a really great stay with helpful hosts, and we recommend staying here!

Clean, easy rental
Located smack dab in the middle of the urban jungle, it's a nicely maintained home with central access in Van Nuys. Appliances are updated and the beds are extremely comfortable. The pool and the pool equipment are pretty dated but it was very clean. I don't think I'd recommend for those with little kids because there is no pool fence, but it's just fine for teenagers and older adults. Views? No. On the beach? No. But if you're looking for a good jumping off point for Universal or Warner Brothers or a day trip up the coast this will give you a good night sleep.
House had everything we needed and the host was responsive and accommodating. Backyard was really lovely and a great hangout space. Definitely a great stay!

Wonderful stay!
Great location and the kids loved the pool! Thank you!
an alright stay for the most part. Itrip is difficult to keep track if and navigate outside of Vrbo. There was a pretty large leak in the kitchen that i nearly slipped on because there was a decent sized puddle. There were also a couple of earwigs I found on the floor and a couple ants in the pantry cabinet. Also if food was left out for more than an hour or even a crumb on the counter ants would absolutely swarm it. Knobs on the stove were also falling off. Overall a decent stay but would hope these issues get addressed.
