    It is easy to rate this stay 5 stars and we would return in a heartbeat. We felt like we were staying at a friends luxury home rather than a rental property. The home was unique, fun, had everything we needed, and was in a great location.

    What an amazing, unique and wonderful home! It’s an experience in and of itself. It’s extremely well cared for on the inside as well as the outside. It’s like a personal and private retreat in the Hollywood Hills, & the old days of Hollywood. Although, if you don’t like stairs, then beware. There are many steps to get to the front door. And there are many steps to get from the guest bedroom to the bathroom.But, if you are fit and not afraid of stairs, this is a very worthwhile experience! One you will absolutely cherish!

    This is a beautiful house in the Hollywood Hills and our family enjoyed our stay. From the beautiful grounds, the well appointed kitchen with Viking appliances, to the spacious home, we were very pleased with our stay. Very clean and safe area. Lily and her team were excellent in communication and responding to a minor maintenance issue with the garage door.

    This house is incredible! It looks like something out of old Hollywood and it has been updated beautifully. The beds are comfy, the kitchen is first class and all the places to sit and relax are gorgeous. What a place!

    My family of 8 stayed for 3 nights. Everyone loved the place. It was especially fun for our 3 fourteen year olds who loved playing with their light sabers (we just came from Disneyland) outdoors. First time to LA and it gave us a nice feeling staying in the Hollywood Hills as opposed to a hotel. Cons: Didn’t love that we had to pay for the air mattress each night rather than a flat fee. There was no detergent for laundry so it was an extra stop we don’t plan for. And don’t know how to ground coffee beans so having morning coffee wasn’t an option. Having ground coffee ready with some coffee mate would have made a big difference. Minor inconveniences considering the beauty of the place and the views. It was truly spectacular. I only included it for future visitors to be prepared. I would highly recommend this place. Stunning views.

    We really loved our stay at this home. The house itself is obviously an older home, but it has been very thoughtfully updated. They kept the original charm of the home, but have added a sound system throughout the house, updated lighting, remodeled bathrooms and a beautifully updated kitchen with high-end appliances. This home also has pretty much all items that you could need--it's very well stocked. Also, they are very responsive to questions. I had a couple of questions about where to find things and how to do things and they responded very quickly with solutions and answers. The home is located in an ideal neighborhood. It's very private and the surrounding homes are beautifully maintained. We felt very safe. Also, this is located close to Dodgers stadium, great restaurants, museums, and shopping. It's really ideal. And, did I mention the amazing landscaping? I felt like I should be sitting outside whenever I could at this beautiful home. The landscaping and multiple patios are exceptional. My family plans to stay at this home agian in the future.

    My friends and I stayed at Casa Escalera during our annual friends reunion trip and we had such an amazing time! The space is so inviting, cozy and beautiful. We loved it so much that we split our time between staying indoors and exploring LA. We enjoyed family meals outside, playing the piano and relaxing inside and of course soaking in all that LA had to offer as well. My dog loved the space too. Highly recommend!

    This couldn't be a more exquisite place to stay! We are displaced because of the Eaton Fire and Lilly was so kind and thoughtful with us as we figured out how Casa Escalera could happen for us. The flowers, the plants, the back yard, the walks around the neighborhood and each of the rooms themselves are just gorgeous. Can't recommend this beautiful home and iTrip enough!

    Our first impression upon arrival was the beautiful landscaped garden surrounding the home in addition to the elevation from street level. When first entering the home we were taken back by how stale the home smelled. However, the home was very charming with its Victorian-styled furnishings throughout. The home was nicely appointed with all the essentials you would need. The beds were comfortable, however additional blankets and sheets could have been provided. The pillows were worn and flat, plush pillows would have made our sleeping experience better. There were bath towels provided, but there were no extra towels provided. The unexpected perk of having surround sound was quite enjoyable to be able to play music throughout the home. The home was quiet, comfortable, charming and our family enjoyed our stay.

    Such a beautiful and comfortable home. Spotlessly clean inside, with expertly maintained gardens outside. Just gorgeous! As mentioned by other reviewers (thank you!), there are a lot of stairs both inside and outside, but it was so worth it. I personally preferred having lots of steps to get to the front door rather than having to navigate a steep driveway. Yes the streets in the neighborhood narrow and winding, but again so worth it to stay in this unique house.

    Casa escalera exceeded our expectations. The home is beautifully decorated w art and unique furnishings. Beds were super comfy. We took full use of the chef's kitchen and enjoyed the multiple sitting areas both inside and out. The home feels secluded and far away from it all, but 7 minutes from hollywood- los filez- griffith, and a nice challenging walk to beachwood eatery. Itrip's communication is 5☆ as well as their accomodating service. Tyty. We hope to return!
