After I checked in with my family, we noticed an abundance of dog hair in all of the rooms. Hal, the owner, told us we couldn't walk around in our shoes. We soon noticed our feet were black. I called Hal to complain that the house was not clean. Hal blamed his cleaning company and then he came back and attempted to clean the house himself. His cleaning job wasn't that good as we still found dog hair and even a dead roach. If you stay here, you must understand that Hal's personal belongings are everywhere. You will find his shoes as you go to the backyard and several other shoes piled up on the dryer. We were in the middle of an LA heat wave and the AC shut down. The house is so old and not well taken care of that you cannot open most of the windows. We asked Hal to get the AC fixed and he told me he was in meetings and couldn't help. He wouldn't even hire a technician to come out and take a look at the issue. We had to go to CVS and buy fans to make it tolerable, and the next day we fixed the AC ourselves. The TV in the "theater room" is something you would see in 1991. There are multiple steps to turn it on and you have to point the remote to the cable box which sits in a dirty, dusty closet away from the TV. The house has a unique decor and the pictures show that as well. But for whatever reason two of the bathrooms do not have doors. There are statues everywhere and a large picture frame on the floor covering up a wall. When Hal was in the house "cleaning," he noticed we had an air mattress set up for one of the kids. Hal would later tell me bringing in a mattress is against the rules. Understand that Hal invents rules, it's almost a reflex for him. Hal's ad clearly says checkout is at 11am. But that didn't stop him from paying us a visit at 10am, complaining that we were still in the house. He told us checkout was at 9:30am. When I showed Hal that his own ad said 11am, he had no response. If you want good news, I will say the pool is outstanding and the location is great. I tried resolving my issues with the owner after the stay, but he would complain that the backyard furniture was rearranged and we left bottle caps in the backyard. The truth is I have photos and video to prove we left the house as we found it. Hal shouldn't be renting his house or any other properties to people. His conduct and how he maintains the place is not worthy anywhere near the price.
