The house is perfectly located for a Universal Studios or exploring LA trip, and it is surprisingly affordable. We had two minor issues that kept us from giving a 5-star review.
1. When we arrived, there was a strong smell of gas and after messaging the host, we discovered that a burner on the stove had been left on either by them or previous guests. Could have been very dangerous.
2. We found the numerous reminders, both in the house and via messages, about tidying up to be pretty tacky and a little annoying. If we are rated as guests, can’t an owner simply not rent to users with bad reviews? We always tidy up, and we just found the reminders a bit excessive.
