Nice but annoying
the property was nice the neighborhood was nice and the people on the property were nice but oblivious to the dog barking they did say it would bark from time to time but it literally barked the whole time it was outside 11:00 at night it was barking waking me up i am a light sleeper and the dog just constantly barked it would hear me inside the studio and just bark and bark and bark i would stay there again if the dog was no longer there other than that it is a really nice place but they just let the dog bark and ruined a good trip

Great value
This was my first Vrbo experience. We had all the amenities, for way less cost than a hotel. Amazing location, easy to get to. Great host! Was understanding and kind when my cluesless self had anxiety about just walking onto a stranger's property for check-in. I highly recommend this property!
It was good. Pictures portray bigger than actual. It was clean. Bed comfortable. Too close to main house. Hot tube is not private. Nice pond

Peaceful and safe neighborhood
I absolutely felt comfortable in Delong’s neighborhood. The backyard is quite the sanctuary amid the turtles and various fruit trees. Delong takes pride in his home, and it shows. Even the turtles and doggy are friendly.
This was our fourth stay. The tiny house is clean, private and spacious. The location is convenient and in a lovely neighborhood. Host is always welcoming and prompt in communications. The amenities are great and we appreciate the delicious coffee provided. We look forward to staying there again.

Way better than a hotel room!
We came in for grad weekend and all the hotels in the entire area were sold out. Thank goodness we found this! You do need a car to get around but that’s true for most of LA. Clean, everything we needed, and very quiet.
What a special tiny home. So many smart features like labels on important items and coffee in the kitchenette. Walkable to many restaurants and even a movie theater. Gorgeous,safe area.

Amazing 2-night getaway
We enjoyed the atmosphere of the guest house as well as the area. It was perfect for our family and gave us a quiet place to go to after traveling. Glendora was a perfect location to get where we wanted to go, as it was central to my family's homes

Glendora Stay
The VRBO was cozy and in a very quiet and safe neighbourhood. It was just right for our needs and within a few minutes walk to any restaurants that you could want. The owner was very nice and meet all our needs. Would recommend it to any couple looking for a quaint place to stay .

Great little house
Small but perfect, quiet spot behind a private home. Owner was very responsive while also respecting your privacy.
Fully stocked kitchen and very clean. The beds were very comfortable.
I’ll be back for sure.
