I use to live in the San Fernando Valley, so I am very familiar with the area. I wanted something close to the freeways that had a pool, and this place was perfect. Close to Universal Studios and The Galleria for shopping. The house is modern and has modern amenities. The grounds are beautifully maintained and the pool area is perfect for a day in the su and entertaining friends. The pool has lights, so night swimming was especially fun for our little one. This house has everything you need for a trip away. Extra toilet paper was needed, but the house is so close to all the stores it wasn't a problem. (In and Out is only 10 min away too!!) All communication with the host was always prompt and courteous. I would stay here again.
