If you want a good base for visiting Universal Studios or the San Fernando Valley, Vince's place is a great option! It is in a safe, quiet, upscale little neighborhood and the guest house is lovely, modern, stylish, and comfortable. There is a small local park about 5 minutes away if you want to walk around at any time. This was my first ever AirBnB stay and it was a wonderful introduction.
There is a grocery store about 5 minutes away by car and Vince provided a handy binder in the guest house for many local items (eateries, hiking, et cetera). The guest house has many lovely touches and the shared backyard is very nice with a pergola, grill, and seating area.
I want to publicly thank Vince for being a gracious host (even though we didn't meet up) and providing quick replies to the few questions I had. I hope that I can rebook the place on a future visit.
