We really enjoyed our stay here. Lovely home and great parking.
Overall experience was great. The property was clean and as advertised. Communication was great. If I were coming to the area again, I'd stay again.

We had a wonderful experience, stayed there for 4 nights. Very clean, updated property with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Karla responded promptly with some lock code issues we had initially. Whole foods is nearby. Perfect location if you’re planning to visit Universal studios.
We have stayed here many times. Spacious, clean and comfortable. Washer and dryer are terrific. Easy to communicate with host. Private parking in rear is very helpful. Will definitely return again. Rhonda S
Beautiful apartment, great location and great property management. I’m sure we will continue to stay here in our trips to CA, it feels like home. Thank you Kyla.
We stayed for Spring Break '25 and loved how close we were to Warner Bros. (short walk), Universal, etc. We took an amazing horseback ride on the Hollywood sign mountain too! So much to do and this Vrbo was the perfect location with off street parking and outdoor patio space as well.
Perfect last minute find for our family after our spring break plans went sideways. Host was super responsive and accommodating. We 100% would stay here again.
This is our second time staying at this location. I cannot emphasize how amazing the location is, especially if you are visiting Warner Bros., Universal Studios, or Hollywood. The location is extremely quiet and safe, stores and restaurants are close by, and the drive to Universal is less always quick. The apartment is updated and lovely as well.
The host was great at communication the entire stay. We did not need anything extra but if we did, I’m sure she would have been quick to respond!
The apartment is a great size, very clean, and in a great location. I would stay here again when I come back to town!
We have a stayed at this property twice and will continue to use it as our "home" when we come Burbank. It is close to almost all attractions in the LA area (this time we went to Universal Studios and the LA Zoo and both were under 25 minutes away).
The location is across the street from Warner Bros and 5 minutes to Universals Studios! The place itself could not have been more perfect. Everything we needed, very clean and functional. Definitely recommend!
This was a great little spot. The location was convenient to several of the spots we were visiting. Kids reported that the sofa bed was comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked. It was a little tight for our family of two adults and two teens.

I'm def not a fan of the neighborhood- didnt feel safe to me. Property was a little bit hard to locate at first.
Super clean, spacious, well equipped and quiet location. Back patio area was a plus.
Bed was oddly low but comfortable. As a first floor unit, activity in upper unit was at times noisy.
My wife and I were in town visiting friends and stayed at this unit. It was clean, centrally located, and in a safe area. It was within walking distance to many restaurants and shops on Riverside. The on site parking was great, however the spots are very tight so just be mindful of that. The host was very responsive and friendly. We will definitely stay here again in the future.
Nice pad close to WB. Perfect for all of our needs. Heard the neighbors upstairs one night around 3 am walking around. Other than that, perfectly quiet and safe. The gracious host was responsive and hospitable with all our needs and queries.
