We have just returned back (2 Sept) to the UK following a two week stay at this wonderful house. You will not regret picking this accommodation - you have all the mod cons you need, the entire house is clean and tidy, there was plenty of space for 7 of us (youngest 15yrs old). Beds were really comfortable, plenty of fresh towels, great w/machine and dryer (if needed), kitchen had all you needed inc. coffee machine etc. Omaima, the owner who lives next door, is just lovely and can't do enough to help you - whether that's finding restaurants, places to shop etc. She was great! However, the biggest plus point is the location of this house. The area is great. It felt really safe and was clean and well looked after. We had no issues at all and our 7 seater Dodge was parked on the road (too big for the garage) every night. As others have commented, you can get to most of L.A attractions within 20-30mins (in traffic which was not too bad at all). Beverly Hills and Rodeo Dr is even closer! Disneyland is 45 mins away and Universal only 25 mins away. If you like shopping The Grove is a nice place to shop and have lunch. The Farmers Market next door is great too - if you like chargrilled meats try the Brazilian grill located in one of the stalls - several spit roasts - you just choose the cuts you like and amount - fantastic! Another shopping outlet for designer wear is Desert Hills Premium Outlet. It's a good 1.5hrs away but well worth it - we got some great deals from Michael Kors, Nike, Levis, Lacoste, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren (plenty of other designers). Have fun - it's hard not too at this accommodation!!
