This was a return stay for me. Not sure how many previous times I've now stayed at the Hopevale House but since I am in Sherman Oaks often for business I always first check for availability with Evan. So the expression "home away from home" really fits in my situation. I can't say enough positive things and I guess I don't have to, just read the reviews! Evan goes above and beyond to be a Superhost and his place is really great, both inside and out. I love sitting out back by the fire pit in the evenings and on really special evenings have the opportunity to visit with the host, Evan. He's such an awesome guy and makes his place a special place to stay every visit. His place is booked often so if your dates are available, don't hesitate.
