Forman Ave House
Property was as advertised. Spacious, with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Pool in the yard, which was great as we stayed during a hot spell and enjoyed swimming and relaxing by the pool. Unfortunately, the air conditioner could not keep the house cool during this heatwave, so it wasn't as comfortable as we had hoped.Neighborhood was quiet and had dining and shopping options within walking distance. A short drive to Universal Studios and Hollywood Bowl. I would definitely stay there again, but maybe not during the hottest months.

Enjoyable stay; opportunities for improvement
Pros:
-fantastic location
- spacious house with lots of amenities
- bunk bed with full-sized mattresses(!)
- quiet, safe area
- short walk to stores/restaurants
- POOL
Cons:
- we had trouble getting in: entry instructions didn’t reflect the updated security system
- no local stations on TV system
- cleanliness: lots of dust/cobwebs, bathroom mats were dirty; shower drains were clogged with hair; we had to clean leaves from the backyard and pool
A good deep cleaning/furniture vacuuming/scrubbing floors and wiping down walls/baseboards would make a world of difference.
All of that considered, we had an enjoyable, easy stay.

Great location
This house was perfect for our family to stay while visiting family in the area. The home was spacious and updated nicely with a very private and lovely back yard. The location was fabulous, with lots of great restaurants within walking distance. We did appreciate the abundance of cleaning and general supplies however a microwave and ice maker would be a nice addition. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Nice spacious house
We really enjoyed our stay in Toluca Lake. The house has plenty of space and updated bathrooms and kitchen. Lots of tall trees around the property make it feel very private. Less than a ten minute drive to Universal Studios. Lots of stores and restaurants nearby. A great vacation spot.
