Gilda is sweet and replied within time. House is huge and spacious! You have a shared balcony and shared restroom so not so private although we never ran into anyone. TV worked, i'm glad i was able to watch my netflix show at night while i rested on the comfortable bed! location was a bit complicated be sure to take the freeway as you arrive and not the streets!! we had gone through the streets and we went up and down a canyon for an hour i thought i was surely lost as there was no reception!! It was pretty scary lol with very narrow streets so i wouldn't suggest driving unless you're use to driving in Californian narrow streets. She does have a driveway which you can park and it is pretty spacious for you to park :)! universal studios is fairly close to her home about 11 min and LAX is 40 min away which isn't too bad if you plan on flying in! There's a grocery near by for your necessities and if you plan on getting a quick bite somewhere i suggest going to Crave, pretty good food!
