Needs a thorough cleaning

The house was nice, but definitely could have been cleaned better prior to our arrival. The floors needed to be swept, there was sand in one of the beds, the master bathroom had cobwebs. We inquired about the thermostat being lowered due to my moms medical condition and never received a response back. Neighborhood is quiet, but there is not alot of parking.

Family enjoyment in a sad situation

I booked this unit for my adult children, their spouses and teens. They enjoyed the unit thoroughly. Easy access to morning coffee and doughnuts and not far to an In and Out. Coming from Florida for their grandmother / great grandmother's funerals (both my mom and my husbands mom), this unit provided a good place for them to decompress and enjoy each other. Thank you

Easy check in/out. Great location for my sons’ basketball camp. Very spacious, clean and close to restaurants, cute local coffee shops.

Short Stay

My family and I enjoyed our stay at Bill and Carrie’s lovely home. It was very clean and exactly as the pictures shown. A huge plus is the wheelchair accessibility walk way leading to the front door entrance. It was perfect to wheel my dad up to the front door. Bill and Carried were very responsive and stayed in communication with me when I had any questions leading up to the time of our stay. They were also very kind and accommodating to our needs. I highly recommend staying here. It’s a great location near to stores, restaurants and downtown.

Our Second Home

This was our 4th time staying in this absolutely perfect house. We brought my dad home to his birthplace of Whittier one last time and it was wonderful having a home where all his nieces and nephews could come have a visit. EXCELLENT location, walking distance to everything in uptown, easy parking, wonderful house, and Bill is a great host. The thermostat was acting up when we first got there and he came right away and REPLACED it with one that works great. I am quite certain we will be staying again.

Great Stay

Bill’s home is wonderful. The beds are comfy. The house is clean. Kitchen is great. The neighborhood is usually quiet. We have stay a couple of times and each time was a a pleasant stay. Thanks so much Bill. Bill is a great host and replies back pretty quickly too. Just FYI when visiting Cali in general. California laws though pot/weed is legal to smoke and u can smell it when outside and where ever u visit. Keep the windows closed.
