David and Lara's was the perfect place for a quick staycation - we really wanted a place that close enough to get to work in L.A. during the day if you needed to, far enough to feel like you're on a getaway, and most importantly... a pool!!
Do read all the descriptions in full before you book. The backyard is shared, but we barely ever saw the hosts - maybe once or twice when they let their dogs out, and we still felt like we had a lot of privacy and had the pool all to ourselves the whole time.
Also HUGE plus that this place is dog friendly! That being said, you may get a little interaction with their two small, quiet dogs while they're out in the backyard, but this wasn't a problem for me since I love dogs anyway... just something to keep in mind!
Overall, my stay was just what I needed. Will definitely book again if I need another quick getaway!
