We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We didn’t want to leave. The house was perfect for just my 8 year old daughter and I. Everything looks like the pictures, with exception to the dining room setting, like the plates and stuff. Something we weren’t going to use anyway and move out of the way anyway. The firepit seating was missing the cushions, they were in the garage maybe in the process of cleaning them. Again no big deal. It was kinda hard working with the keypad but that could very well be user error. For some reason I had to put the code in multiple times. It was nice having the washer and dryer. We were able to travel back home with clean clothes. The pool was perfect and clean. We enjoyed it. As far as location. Not bad, it too us 55 minutes to an hour to get there and back to LAX. It was a scenic route so not bad. We were like 30-35 minutes away from Hollywood BLVD. Ummmm, maybe 45 minutes away from Santa Monica Beach with traffic. Should be shorter without traffic.Host was very responsive usually respond almost immediately. No longer than an hour. Would definitely come back if the opportunity arises.
