Charming Alhambra Home

Had a great Mother’s Day Weekend. Lots of amenities. We would stay here again. Outside temp hit 99 degrees but we won’t hold that against the house.

A great place to stay

We loved this clean, cute, spacious home and would choose it again for another stay in the LA area. It had everything we needed, very well organized. The beds were very comfortable. The primary suite was extra-large with a huge bathroom and french doors opening to backyard, which had plenty of space to sit and relax. Nice quiet neighborhood and easy to get around the area. Plenty of space for two cars on the driveway.

Very Nice Place - some small issues

The house was very nice, lots of space and the backyard was great. The kitchen is very good, the primary bedroom has lots of space and the ensuite bathroom is great. The Wifi is very fast and consistent. The owner or broker for the owner replied quickly. Three warnings: 1) Several of the windows were left unlocked when we arrived and could be opened from the outside. Had we not checked, this would have been an unsafe situation for us. 2) The backyard fireplace has been capped and is not available to use even though they promote this in the main property description. This was very disappointing. We were specifically looking forward to backyard time in the evenings but it was too cool without the fireplace so we rarely used the backyard. 3) Be prepared for a very long document that explains in detail many of the warnings and threats of very large penalties (including immediate removal from the property) if you do not comply. They have multiple outdoor cameras that we were not informed of until receiving the full information package.

Beautiful cottage in historic Alhambra neighborhood

My family had a great relaxing stay at the home. Our host Monia and her partner has been super responsive to every request. It’s a beautiful home, clean, well furnished, and home away from home for close knit family. Thanks
