This home was the perfect retreat for us. Centrally located, it was inviting, equipped with everything needed, and impeccably yet eclectically furnished. The outdoor space was nothing short of magical. The hosts were kind and responsive, parking was never an issue. Quiet neighborhood. We could not have asked for more. A definite 5 star retreat.

Just ok
The house is fine. Somewhat outdated. No rugs anywhere in the home, so a little loud and less cozy because of it.The home has a fireplace as noted on the listing but you can’t use it.. The shower is very small and not much hot water hence no back to back showers. The kitchen is the best part of the house and the backyard is nice if not a little overgrown. Note that the gardener comes early in the morning.We did however, have sounds coming from the crawlspace which we determined were nesting rats. Disturbed our sleep not to mention our comfort. There are many options in LA for accommodation. I wouldn’t stay there again.

Great little Gem in North Hollywood
We loved staying at Layna and David's home. It's a very unique, decorated, older fashioned home with the wood and tile floors. Communication with the host was quick and easy. Great neighborhood with very friendly neighbors. Large refrigerator, gas O'Keefe and Merritt stove which I loved cooking on. Very comfortable beds, large sofa and chairs. Beautiful back yard oasis! I would stay here again if I was needing to be in the area. The comfort of the home makes you feel right at home as if it were your own. Highly recommended if you're in the area. A+++++

Koi Pond Oasis
Great little place to stay. The backyard is an oasis! So pretty. We really appreciated the artwork and all the little touches.
The owners were very responsive and helpful. The location was close to where we wanted to be. The house was clean. The beds were comfortable. The house interior was dated but cozy.

A great fit
I have to start by saying that Layna and David seem like very delightful people. They were easy to work with and generous. The house was very comfortable, with a well-stocked kitchen. The backyard was larger than we'd expected and was perfect for nice weather. It is well fenced and we were happy the dogs had an interesting space to explore between naps. In addition to the Koi pond, the back yard has a large BBQ and table, and we enjoyed a warm summer night dinner with our nephew and his partner. This was our first VRBO stay and a great fit for us.

Bright and Cheerful
We came down for a 50th birthday party for a friend, and saw this listing on VRBO. The photos made this place look like a magical home and we jumped on it. We were not disappointed. House is cozy and the backyard is amazing. Love the home decor and we totally saw some Morocco photos that we recognized from a trip we took there ourselves. Hated to leave, and will definitely look to utilize this home if we come back to the area. The owners were very good about communicating, and check in and check out were easy and painless. Awesome experience. :)

Neat Koi Pond
This is a neat old house. The owner really likes to communicate with the people who are staying at the property. They have a beautiful front and backyard, including a koi pond. Someone has spent a lot of time on their flowers and plants. I was surprised that there weren’t any instructions for the stove (gas stove that needs to be lit by hand) in the binder- there is a binder of guidelines for the property. And it takes a long time for the hot water to run in the shower/ bathtub.
The owners are very kind and helpful.

Lovely NoHo homebase
Our family of 4 stayed here for a few days over spring break. The house is just as described and a lovely home. The kitchen is really well appointed and had all the necessary kitchen tools. The backyard is so gorgeous with all the plants and koi pond. There is also a Trader Joe’s and a few restaurants within a very short walk.
Great house!
