People were great!
The people were cool, even though the state department showed up for a house visit during our stay. The rooms really smelled bad, I had to go buy febreeze and candles to try and stand the smell. The beds were very uncomfortable. The people let us smoke out front their house but you have no privacy in the back yard area they provide. They keep their sliding doors open, nice people though.

hello crystal ! thanks for the good compliments for me, n my family n sorry my listing didnt quiet satisfy ur stay. yes it's basically a place offered for sleep n go purposes fr a very reasonable price in a great location but thanks for ur suggestions n will try to improve lil better n the odor was from burnt popcorn in d microwave which prior guests from air bnb rental burnt a popcorn bag inside microwave n left with a typical smell n we hv tried our best to get rid of that smell n its slowly getting rid of it. n yes as mentioned in d listing description's the frontyard n backyard is shared n no smoking allowed but still i was nice to let u smoke in d front yard n also offered u to sit n hv ur drinks in d backyard n also asked u couple times if everything was ok n if u need anything or any concerns but u said all is well , if u would hv mentioned about d odor then i would hv provided plugin freshners but thanks anyways !

Should not be listed on VRBO
After staying at and seeing nice VRBO properties, it was disappointing to walk into this one. I handed the keys back that I was given and found a nearby hotel to stay in. As you walk in there is immediately a bed there (no living area). There is another room with a bed. There is also a small bathroom. No kitchen, but there is a microwave on a small refrigerator. The place is apparently a part of the owners' parents' home, who instructed me where to park as there would be others using the driveway as well. As this VRBO was nonrefundable, I can only hope that the owner will use the payment to donate to charity or perhaps clean the place up. Ideally, they should advertise as a one bedroom and make the front room as a living area with a small dinette. Definitely not up to VRBO standards and no feeling that "you have the place all to yourself".

Hello Mr. Don ! Sorry that my 250 ÷ 5 star review listing on air bnb n vrbo with all positive review property didn't meet your expectations just because you didn't look at the property description properly n blindly booked it without checking details n pictures. My listing is exactly d same as described on vrbo n air bnb n I have been listed fr almost 4 years with 1000's of guests stayed n liked it the way it is with 2 bedrooms n giving 5 star reviews ...sorry to say you are d 1st person who didn't like d layout of d listing out of 1000 people who stayed here n yes it is a non refundable reservation since it is priced accordingly n you should know where in d world you can rent a whole house for $89/night in a prime location like this in a safe neighborhood,across a mall with all restaurants n shopping n night life n mainly right by Disneyland n knottsberryfarm n also provided all d basic amenities . Also thanks for suggesting to donate d rent which is very inappropriate to say as I am totally n legally eligible for d rent as you had booked the property months n months ago n you had occupied my dates on vrbo n air bnb for so many months n then you show up on ur arrival date n u don't like it n ask for refund on a nonrefundable reservation which is very unfair to any host .just because u didn't do your job right n because of that other people who like my listing they couldn't book my place on such a busy time when there r conventions going on in our town n lots of tourists visiting .but thanks fr suggesting as I have my own ways of donating which we do on regular places where needed .I have a suggestion for you fr any of ur future rentals or anything you do plz have a look properly before renting or buying anything..thanks

4 night stay
This part of the house has been locked off from the main part of the home. It is about 350 sf consisting of 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and a small hallway. There is no common area or dining area and the fridge is smaller than shown in the picture. There wasn't much in the way of utensils or cups but these were small issues that we could of asked the owner for, if needed. It is very close to Knott's and works fine for a place to stay while visiting the area.

Great Location! Safe, Convenient, & Accommodating Stay
This is a two bed room "Mother-in-Law" unit attached to the owner's home, but you do have complete privacy. Really convenient spot right off of the highway so you have quick access to multiple restaurants & shopping centers. There is a Wal-Mart right across the street as well. The owner was very accommodating and kept in good contact to make sure we had everything we needed. If you're looking for a nice place to rest after your time in the city, this will fit the bill.

Hello Anna ! Thanks for ur suggestions, I wish u had asked me to come change both tv batteries during ur stay but now I hv replaced both d remote batteries n all good Regarding mattresses I hv kept all options open for guests , since sone people prefer to sleep on soft n sone on hard , so I hv put one hard mattress in inside room n hv 2 soft mattresses in first room so guests can switch arrnd . Yes d water pressure in shower is lil low since it’s a water saver shower head since d city keeps pushing on putting water saver equipments due to severe California drought , but even I myself don’t prefer those showerheads so I hv already replaced it couple days ago . Appreciate all ur suggestions n thanks fr liking my clean place n location n hope to see u guys in d future 😊

Convenient, comfortable and clean with a side of kindness and courtesy
Only about 10 minutes from Disneyland, which was the reason for our trip, the location made it affordable for us to go to the Park for awhile and return to the rooms to rest before returning to the Park. Both rooms have ceiling fans in addition to the A/C and each has good storage and closet space. The bathroom was clean and well stocked with towels as well as some courtesy items and there was a mini-fridge and toaster and some supplies provided as well. Jignesh was very kind - he helped me with a technical difficulty when I was trying to make the reservation, he met us personally when we arrived, and he rescued me when I mistakenly locked my key inside the unit. All in all, we were very pleased with our stay and would be happy to recommend this home.

Just as good as a hotel
My friend and I stayed here for 6 days for a large conference. Having two separate bedrooms is better than most hotels! The mini-fridge setup was good enough for two folks & our Trader Joe's ready-to-go meals. Having Aldi just down the block, within walking distance, was a real treat. The host family was very nice and respected our privacy, while making it clear that if we needed anything, we just had to ask. Although they were doing renovations on other parts of the house during our stay, it did not interfere with our pleasant atmosphere. Our favorite part was sitting outside, eating breakfast with the mini-folding table and chairs. We would come here again, with no hesitation.
