Clean, nicely furnished, always felt safe. Very convienent location for things on the north end of LA (Warner Bros, Griffith, Hollywood, etc)Very hard to find initially. Its behind another house so would be very helpful to know that address as its the easiest to see from the street.

Warren, Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the clean space, comfortable furnishings, and the peaceful setting of our Toluca Lake / North Hollywood guest suite. Many guests love the location because it’s so close to Warner Bros Studios, Griffith Park, Universal Studios, and Hollywood while still feeling safe and quiet. Because the suite sits behind the main house, it offers guests extra privacy and a more tucked-away retreat in the heart of the city. We appreciate your feedback about the arrival directions and will continue improving our instructions to make the first arrival even easier. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back the next time you’re visiting Los Angeles!

We had a great stay. Cori was a great host. We appreciated all of the amenities, especially the washer and dryer! The place was perfect for our ur group of four. We were close to Universal Studios which worked out great for our trip. Only con was that it was hard to find when we originally arrived as it was dark out. The building is behind another and not clearly visible from the street.

Hi Kristin! Thank you so much for staying with us and for the kind words about Cari she’ll be thrilled to hear that! We’re so happy the home was a perfect fit for your group and that the amenities (especially the washer and dryer!) made things extra convenient during your Universal trip. I really appreciate your feedback about the arrival experience. We understand that the building can be a little tricky to spot at night since it sits behind the front property and there’s no street lights! You were wonderful guests, and we’d love to host you again anytime you’re back in the area!

Comfortable and convenient

We stayed over the Christmas holiday. The apartment is very convenient to the greater LA area, all the accommodations are comfortable. For a family of seniors and adult children it was ideal.

Absolutely fabulous!

We were fortunate enough to spend five nights at this incredible North Hollywood / Toluca Lake property — and could not have been more pleased with the experience! Our family of five felt instantly at home in this beautifully decorated and appointed two bed, two full bath condo tucked back off a quiet, residential street in LA (with convenient and ample parking available the entire stay). Cari, the property manager, was welcoming, friendly, and prompt in all of our communications. We felt very ‘taken care of’ while we were there — with the little extras available to us from the start (basic toiletries, plentiful linens, and a full washer / dryer - with products available for use!). We will absolutely stay here again at this absolutely fabulous ‘Tinsel Town’ property!! Thank you, Cari!! Missing it already!

You were wonderful guests, and we would absolutely love to welcome you back the next time you’re in the area. Thank you again for choosing our Tinsel Town getaway — we’re missing you already too!
