Cool location just across the bridge to Hillcrest. A 3 minute walk gets you to the Trader Joe’s and Ralph’s just on the other side. We enjoyed our stay. ##### Armen S. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Omar W. 1 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy I can not stress enough about the location of the house it's just absolutely in perfect place. Everything essential is in walking distance, neighborhood is very quiet despite being right off the exit from the highways. The house itself is very clean and kept in excellent condition. Great for families to be there and spend time and be able to enjoy the surrounding areas without having to travel too far. ##### Omar W.
