We had a wonderful stay in Valley Glen! The location was very convenient, with plenty of restaurants nearby and easy access to the freeway. The home itself was comfortable, stylish, and thoughtfully decorated. Everything was wonderfully appointed, and the home had a luxurious yet welcoming feel. You could tell a lot of care went into creating such a comfortable and inviting space.The private heated pool was a major highlight, and the temperature was perfect! The outdoor space was fantastic and gave us plenty of room to relax and enjoy family gatherings.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this home to others. We especially appreciated the beautiful home, private pool, and convenient location. We’ll be back!

Great house for the price. Was roomy for our family (parents traveling with kids and grandkids). We took the primary bedroom which was on one side of the house and our son/daughter and the kids took the other side of the house. So separation is possible which was nice. Kitchen was well equipped and everything was in working order. Only issue we experienced was the AC in the primary bedroom. It was warm, but with open windows and a ceiling fan, it was manageable. The other side of the house was really cold while we were really warm. Keep in mind this was August and it was well over 100F. Backyard was a nice respite.

Thank you so much for the feedback! We're glad the layout gave your family the space and separation you needed, and that you enjoyed the equipped kitchen and peaceful backyard. We appreciate you bringing the primary bedroom’s AC performance to our attention. Battling 100°F August heat is no small task, but we are having our technician inspect that unit immediately to ensure consistent cooling throughout the entire home. We'd love to welcome your family back again anytime!

The house was clean, the layout of the house is great. We really loved the open kitchen and the appliances. We did lots of cooking in the kitchen. We got the house specifically for the pool however if you’d like to use it you do need to pay an additional fee for heating, because it was VERY cold without it. Also the concrete in the pool is stained so it looks quite dirty. The palm tree in the back drops a ton of seeds and leaves in the pool, so you will want to have access to a net which we did find, just be prepared to clean quite a bit out if you want a cleaner pool to swim in. After paying the heating fee the pool warmed up relatively quickly and it felt quite lovely. Just know going in that you need to pay the heating fee and visually the pool isn’t amazing but it does feel nice. Also there are no pool lights so after sundown swimming is very dark.There was excellent communication from the hosts and the location of the home was only about 15 min drive to Universal Studios.

Thank you so much for your thorough review and feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you loved the open kitchen, spacious layout, easy drive to Universal, and quick communication from our team. We appreciate you bringing the pool's cosmetic condition and lighting to our attention—we’re actively taking steps to address the pool surface staining and look into nighttime illumination. We're glad the pool heating made for a lovely swim once turned on, and we’d be delighted to host you again on your next trip!

Nice home, very clean and we loved the privacy of the pool. The hosts were pleasant and quick to respond to almost all of our questions and concerns. The air conditioner stopped working the last two days of our stay and they came over immediately with a fix that was only temporary. I texted them the next day to let them know that it was not working again and got no response. A response would have been nice. We really did enjoy our stay despite being extra warm.

Thank you so much for your review and for highlighting our clean home and private pool! We’re glad you enjoyed your stay despite the heat. I want to sincerely apologize for the communication breakdown on our end during your last day. We always aim to be fully responsive, and we clearly missed the mark while trying to get that AC sorted out. We appreciate your patience and look forward to welcoming you back for a flawless stay next time!

Great Location and Modern

Great location, it seemed that whenever we needed to go some where it was just 10-20 mins away, including Burbank Airport. The house is very clean, very nice towels and sheets were perfect. Plenty of televisions, very handy to catch the NBA Finals and the beginning of the Euro Cup. Television outside on the patio with high top with firepit and great grill. Nice compliment of appliances too.

Family friendly home near all the amenities

Our family of 4 stayed for 6 nights in this immaculately clean house in a safe-feeling street very near to Universal and not far from the Griffith Observatory. Room sizes were great and the addition of the dressing room was ideal to keep cases & packing etc. Appliances were all large & made the difference to our stay; humongous washer & drier! Pool ticked the box for the kids & was heated upon request. The open-plan living kitchen area was a fab space for our family after a busy day exploring LA. Would highly recommend, thanks for having us!

Thank you for the 5-star review. Thrilled to hear your family of four enjoyed your 6-night stay! We're so glad you found the house immaculately clean, the street safe and close to Universal, with Griffith Observatory not too far. Great to know the room sizes and dressing room were ideal, and that the large appliances were a plus. The kids loving the heated pool and the open-plan living kitchen being a "fab space" is fantastic feedback. Thanks for the high recommendation! We'd love to host you again.

Nice Home & Great Location

Our family really enjoyed staying here. It was in a great location, less than 5 minutes from the freeway, and close to Universal Studios. Very clean home with great spaces. Owners were good at communicating quickly to help fix small issues we had at the beginning. The pool was never cleaned and has no cover, so it was a little dirty with outside debris, but it wasn’t a big issue. The house was well suited with amenities although we did wish laundry detergent was provided. Overall a really great stay with helpful hosts, and we recommend staying here!

an alright stay for the most part. Itrip is difficult to keep track if and navigate outside of Vrbo. There was a pretty large leak in the kitchen that i nearly slipped on because there was a decent sized puddle. There were also a couple of earwigs I found on the floor and a couple ants in the pantry cabinet. Also if food was left out for more than an hour or even a crumb on the counter ants would absolutely swarm it. Knobs on the stove were also falling off. Overall a decent stay but would hope these issues get addressed.

This is an important piece of feedback, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Please know that this is the first report of a leak at this property. Any report of any leak needs to be reported to management and we immediately send maintenance to fix it. We highly encourage all our guests to reach out to us immediately during their stay when issues like this arise so we can address them promptly and ensure you are comfortable. The same goes for the presence of ants. We would have happily sent pest control right away if we had known. We have already sent our maintenance team to address the leak and secure the stove knobs, and we also scheduled professional service to actively treat the property for ants. We are always working to improve and elevate the guest experience.

Clean, easy rental

Located smack dab in the middle of the urban jungle, it's a nicely maintained home with central access in Van Nuys. Appliances are updated and the beds are extremely comfortable. The pool and the pool equipment are pretty dated but it was very clean. I don't think I'd recommend for those with little kids because there is no pool fence, but it's just fine for teenagers and older adults. Views? No. On the beach? No. But if you're looking for a good jumping off point for Universal or Warner Brothers or a day trip up the coast this will give you a good night sleep.
