Centrally located neighborhood. This space is a cool, house within a commercial setting. It is decorated in a 50 modern theme with an eye for minimalism and a sense of openness and multiple hang-out areas.

This is a place to come with friends and family to use as a cozy, fun home base to explore the great city of Los Angeles!
The alley side is sitting between a residential street with trees and a commercial side that is all business.
It's an estimated $800k house that for guests from other cities may not appear so.
it is an old house that is not fully renovated and has some run-down aspects.
When we fully renovate it, it will list at $300 per night instead of the 125-175 it lists for now.
I thought it would be nice to leave it as a more economical alternative for travelers that want a whole house that allows pets.
There is a mixed martial arts studio next door, a trendy hair salon a few doors down, a showbiz industry coffee shop across the street along with a popular Taco place and a yoga studio. This is the real L.A.!

We rented before remodeling occurred, and got a great rate for a two bedroom, one bath place. The outside courtyard is just lovely to sit and have coffee. The parking is a lil challenging as it’s very tight on both sides, but a smaller car would work well. Street parking was not bad and we availed ourselves of that a couple times. Kitchen & bath was stocked with the basics, and we appreciated that. Our Host Eric was wonderful and immediately responded to all of our requests. It’s not fancy compared to other places, but also much cheaper than other places and so if you’re looking for a value stay, this is a fantastic choice! Bonus! Just a three minute walk from our stay takes you to a fabulous juice, bar, a really great patisserie and coffee shop named Moby’s and a Mexican restaurant (all very very good locally owned shops). We had coffee and or juice every morning across the street and it was fabulous!
I liked staying at this property. I felt very safe and I loved the neighborhood. Kind of a small town feeling and within a short drive, I was able to get to everything I needed/wanted. About 2 miles from Universal Studios which is why I was visiting California. I stayed 5 nights. The small/quaint 2 bedroom, house and small patio was perfect for 4 adults. Very peaceful and private. There's an orange tree on the patio which, being from the Chicago suburbs, was neat to see. The only semi-negative feedback I would give is the gate to get into the property and park your car needs some attention but not a major issue.
Great location, close to Universal Studios and not too far from Dodgers Stadium. Very Spacious and owner was very thoughtful in all that was provided to use incase something was forgotten or just plain for our liking. :)
We only stayed there for a night but the house was clean and the instructions on how to get there and where to go in were very easy to follow!
We stayed for our trip to Universal. 4 adults, one couple and two singles. There was a mix up in the listing as far as the number of beds.there was supposed to be 2 beds and a futon, but no futon so one adult got the blow up bed. Bathroom is very small with no fan and dim lighting. We were at the parks most of the time so only there to sleep. Eric was very responsive when told about the futon situation.
We had a nice brief stay. The beds were comfortable and the place was clean.
Needed a spot close to universal. 10 min drive. Had necessary supplies
At first we were surprised with the location but we were pleasantly surprised with the safety and comfort we experienced. This rental was very clean, quiet, with all The necessities for anyone who wishes to have a staycation away from your home. The kitchen, the new wood floors? We definitely will go back again. Thank you Eric for your quick response to any questions we had.
Location is a short drive to Universal! Most of our activities we did were within 20-30 minutes (not including traffic) of the house. Cute little coffee shop across the street! The alley can be hard to find, but the owner includes a video in the confirmation emails with instructions to access it. The chore list was also extremely short compared to pretty much every other place I’ve ever stayed at. We were only asked to strip the beds and put linens in the washing machine. Great stay overall!
Great place to stay, especially if you rented a car! I felt comfy and safe. The location is great for getting around.
This property filled our needs. Location is close to where our adult children live in Burbank and Sun Valley. That was very convenient. Walking our dog around the block worked fine. In the house all the appliances worked. There was plenty of hot water. We have nothing negative to say about the property.
I can’t say enough good about this place. It’s cute, not just cheaply appointed like some rentals I’ve been in. But it has style and comfort and homeyness. Location is ideal to get literally anywhere. While at the same time feeling like you’re tucked into a secret garden Eric was gracious, responsive and kind. We extended out stay twice while there. The place was exactly what it said it would be, and I’d recommend this rental to anyone even my mom.
This property offered a very clean and comfortable place for us to stay while traveling with our Lab! She had a spot to go outside as well as a short walk to a great dog park, and we had a very comfortable bed!!!
Perfect spot for a my family of 4 to stay at when visiting Universal Studios. Communication with Eric was great. There’s a full kitchen, and even a washer and dryer. I highly recommend checking out Roscoe’s if you love fried chicken. Great house and great location.
The owner says the property is down an alley. That is true...it also in a scary area - there was gang member's graffiti on the corrugated iron gate we had to use. The photos are carefully showing areas of the property, but not the decrepitude of the house. The front door screen was filthy and the door was peeling paint. The heat pump for the aircon started leaking immediately we turned it on. I had to put a serving bowl under it as a towel wasn't enough. First bowl i took off the shelf had dust/dirt/crumbs in it. Beds are nailed to the floor and curtains are filthy. We stayed only 1 night out of our 4 because we had arrived very late, but left the next morning. We did not contact the owner. Very disappointing.
Eric did a great job at accommodating my family. Great guy.
We had a great time here. Nice place to relax in-between activities. We enjoyed coffee on the patio each morning and even had a bountiful dinner outside on our last night. This place has no glitz or glam but is a comfortable stay. Eric is a great host. We would stay here again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
