We are a family of five (two teens and a 9 year old) that stayed here for a week in July 2022. It is conveniently located minutes to the HWY, and places like Universal Studios, Griffith Observatory and Hollywood and Highland are short drives. The beaches like Santa Monica and Venice are about a 45 minute drive. As well, there is a great convenience store just down the street. The local area is relatively safe (for LA).
The house itself has an old world charm and most rooms have been renovated with modern sensibilities. The bathrooms were great! The kitchen could use more of an update, but it has new appliances, and everything that we required was there. The living room was ample size for us, with a Roku connection to the television. There is a quiet back yard patio that is great for unwinding after a long day. If you are interested in using the BBQ, confirm with the host in advance. We each had our own room with ample closet space and electrical outlets available.
It's a good value for a family that is interested in seeing many different areas around LA. Dee was a fantastic host, who was prompt to respond to any of our questions and concerns.
