Vacation Rentals by Owner

Better than any hotel

Date of Stay: 02/01/12 Review Submitted: 02/09/12

I will never stay in an LA hotel again if this place is available. It's extremely comfortable. It has a patio with spectacular 270 degree views of Hollywood and provides a rare opportunity to witness both the sunset and the sunrise from the same place. Completely private and quiet. Immaculate bathrooms with quality linens. Check in/out was faster and easier than any hotel. Parking in/out easier than any hotel. The place is spectacularly convenient and steps from restaurants/bars/comedy clubs. It's also steps from multiple grocery store options, which is nice when you have access to a full gourmet kitchen. And it's HUGE. And while I didn't use it, the pool looks nice. I'll be back.

Owner response:Hello we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and thanks for the smashing reveiw. Wonderful to know that so many of our guests enjoy staying with us and want to return again and again. Cheers Caroline Owner and My Sunset Team

My family and I stayed here the first week of January and could not have been more pleased! The apartment was spacious, clean, modern and with all the amenities you might need for your stay. It's in a perfect location on the Sunset Strip and easily accessible. It's within walking distance to many prime locations on the strip as well as a nice grocery store (Trader Joe's) and anything else you might need for your stay. The building seemed to be very safe and secure as well and we were quited surprised and pleased by the kindness of the other tenants in the building. The rental staff was a pleasure to work with as well. They made the rental process VERY easy and convenient for us. I would recommend it highly!!!! We have visited L.A. probably 5 times before and have never been as satisified with our accomodations as this. We are likely to come back once a year and possibly more in the future and it's nice to know that we have found a place we can come back to time and again and assure ourselves of being satisfied.

Owner response:Myself and my Sunset team are so very pleased and happy that you enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you so much for taking the time to write your splendid and accurate review. This means a lot to us as we work very hard to insure all our clients have a good experience when they choose to stay at one of our properties. Come back soon as your LA "home away from home"awaits you Cheers and Happy New Year Caroline Owner

As soon as I walked into the apartment my breath was taken away by how large, spacious and luxurious this apartment was! Coming with parking and two large double rooms (both pretty much ensuite as you could lock the outer bathroom door on the second bedroom) a large dining room, pool and gym, the value for money compared to a hotel is second to none! So glad we chose this place and would definitely stay here again if we come to LA again! The location is perfect for everything, easy to get to especially if you have a car! Great food and shopping nearby and is near to hollywood sightseeing! Id recommend going to the griddle cafe just down the road too for breakfast! All in all a top top stay!

Owner response:Thank you for your wonderful and accurate reveiw and for taking the time to post it. Really makes a difference for travelers when reading so many listings and trying to make the right choice-which can make or break a good travel experience. As the owner of the apt and world traveller I get so frustrated at hotels high prices and lack of space. Staying at one right now in the Marais district in Paris and feeling ripped off as I sit in this tiny room, which is costing big bucks and does not even have 1 real closet, a full length mirror or even an alarm clock, just to mention a few of my complaints LOL. Myself and my team work very hard to give all our clients a good experience in LA by providing our clients with first class spacious accomadations in great locations, and a friendly staff. Yes and everyone loves breakfast at the Hollywood locals favorite Griddle Cafe. Please Come back and stay again soon All the best Caroline and The Sunset Crew.

We enjoyed a 4 night stay in this absolutely perfect apartment. Everything about it could not have been better, great location, stunning decor, fantastic amenities right on the door step!! Having stayed in other apartments when visiting L.A. this one is by far the best I have ever come across and will definately be returning next time I visit.

Owner response:Hello Helen I am so happy you enjoyed your stay and many thanks for your fantastic recommendation. We look foreward to you staying with us on your next trip. See you soon Caroline owner and her Sunset staff

SUPERB place to stay

Guest: Lee H.
Date of Stay: 08/30/11 Review Submitted: 09/15/11

Having previously lived in LA I usually book an all-suite hotel in WeHo but decided, on this occasion, to go for an apartment as I was staying for longer than a week. I was so impressed with the pictures for this place and the glowing reviews and it did NOT disappoint at all! :) The apartment is meticulously clean, great condition all round and provides an extremely comfortable place to stay in an excellent location. My stay was broken into two parts (7 nights and an additional 3 nights) and the two units I occupied during my stays were both absolutely impeccable. Great living space, every living amenity you could possibly want and fantastic service from Jeri and Tracy. The value for money this place represents is also something that you're going to love. You get a parking space (hotels usually charge around $30 a day for this) and the gym is great if you're planning on making use of that (another $20 per visit if you utilise a local gym). There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that I will ALWAYS stay here on my return visits to LA. It's just a shame that I didn't find out about this place a few years earlier! Thanks again for an amazing stay. I can’t wait to come back soon :)

Owner response:Wow. Thank you for your wonderful and heart felt review. We are very proud of all our properties and work very hard to maintain them so it feels great when we are recognized and appreciated. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and we look foreword to your return to your LA home away from home Cheers Owner and staff

It was wonderful!!! We are still talking about how lovely this apartment was..We felt secure and safe at night and the great restaurants are so close you can walk to them. We loved Pizza Fusion, right below our apartment. Also, the views were excellent!! It was such an unforgettable experience for us..I would strongly recommend this apartment!

Sunset Blvd Apartment

Guest: Dave&Sue (Wakefield, UK)
Date of Stay: 06/05/11 Review Submitted: 06/20/11

Apartment is large, clean and spacious. Well equipped kitchen and two lovely bit bedrooms with en suites. Fabulous view out of picture windows that face south. Despite being on Sunset Blvd the apartment is at the back of the block and was very quite with superb views over LA. Safe and secure parking. Met our needs whilst we were in LA. I have not given it 5 stars as would have liked some milk and bread for when we arrived and more details about local shops and amenities. From a previous review I knew there was a local grocery store but it took us quite a while to find it.

Owner response:Hi David so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Sorry we do not stock the fridge this is a self catering apt. However if a client requests in advance we would be happy to help you with this. There are 2 great grocery stores just 1 block from the apt. When staying at our apts we are only a phone call away to help you with all your needs. Come back soon. Cheers Caroline owner.

The location of this apartment, allows you to enjoy all things “Hollywood”! You have incredible restaurants, cafes, and all the entertainment your heart can stand literally in walking distance. It has impressive views, and a very warm “ at home feeling”. The building has every amenity that all the hotels have and more. If you must be in L.A then you must stay at this apartment! And, you’ll be hard pressed to find a better liaison than Ms. Jeri Weiss.

The apt is in a very upscale building with excellent ammenities. Views from windows and balcony were amazing. The apts location on Sunset was walking distance to many resturants, niteclubs and stores. Nicely decorated and fully equipped...just bring your clothes. Would definately recommend to friends and family and stay again myself.

Great condo, amenities and location

Guest: Shawn (Vancouver, BC, Canada)
Date of Stay: 10/21/10 Review Submitted: 10/27/10

We were very pleased to have selected this condo to stay at. The amenities (ie. pool, hot tub, work out center, community decks, lounge, parking, etc) along with the condo itself which was very comfortable made for a great vacation experience. The location of the condo was very good as it was close to restaurants, bars, comedy club, convenience stores and just at the foot of the Hollywood Hills. There were 2 couples that stayed at the condo and we had our own bedroom, closets along with attached ensuites which was a lot better than condo's where you would have to share the bathroom. We would certainly recommend this anyone planning on spending time in Los Angeles whether it be for vacation or business.

My friends and I stayed at this property in early October. The apartment was light, extremely clean and central. Trader Joes, Starbucks, Pharmacy etc were only a couple of blocks away. The only minor nits I would have is that you must bring your own toiletries (i.e. toilet paper, soap etc). Other than that it was a pleasant stay and I would rent again in the future.

Owner response:Hello we are pleased you enjoyed your stay and look foreword to your return. We do supply a "starter kit" for the bathroom and kitchen of all the essentials. As the owner i will look into this and make sure they are always there upon arrival Thank you for your comments Caroline The Owner

Having travelled to LA last year I stayed in a hotel, this year we wanted an apartment, I honestly dont think I could of found a better property, in such a location for such a price. Everything you want is on hand, wifi throughout, a supermarket is the next block down, restaurants and cafe's within walking distance. The apartment itself is exactly as shown on the photographs, the realtor was on hand constantly before we went to sort out everything that we needed, and even when we needed a lightbulb changing they got a letting man there within an hour or two. Everything was provided, linen, towels, additional blankets, cutlery plates, glasses, etc. It meant that we had a perfect residence for our stay. The apartment comes complete with flat screen TV's, cooker, fridge and freezer and within the complex there is a gym, pool, jacuzzi and sauna room. For me, it was the perfect place to stay, suited the style of my holiday much more than a hotel did the previous year. I would definitely return, in fact i am more than likely returning next year.

Owner response:We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. We strive to give all our clients the best experience possible when they stay with us. I agree with you our West Hollywood location is perfect, it is so wonderful to be in LA and not have to drive to everything. You might also want to check out our Santa Monica Beach apts that offer our same high quality. Thank you for your review, it means a lot to us. Come back soon your "LA home away from home:" will be ready for you. Cheers The Owner.

Every aspect of the apartment far exceeded all expectations. Jeri was extremely helpful on a consistent basis. Prior to our first meeting, she provided us with prompt and clear communication. Initially, she gave us a detailed tour of the complex and continued to maintain her professional communication throughout our stay. The apartment itself was absolutely amazing, incredble to say the least. Perfect size, perfect location, indescribable views, other tenants were very friendly and the list could go on! We were very sad to leave the apartment but we'll definitely be staying there when we visit West Hollywood next time. Thank you again Jeri for all of your assistance :)
