This review should serve as a warning for anyone thinking of contacting, booking, or interacting with this entity. Will Hoyman led us to believe that the Bissell House was financia...
lly solvent and would be able to host our May 2025 Wedding, allowing our family to even book additional time ahead of the full weekend buyout. Unfortunately, we found out from a TikTok promoting their estate sale in February 2025 that the venue was closing and cancelling our wedding. With 90 days until our event, the Bissell House & Will Hoyman felt more compelled to get their own money than inform the couples (who they required 100% deposits from) that their venue was having serious financial troubles. While we received a portion of our money, they have since ghosted us and other couples. It turns out they have a history of scams (under Will's name). We are one of many scammed couples. The house is now for-sale and completely empty - so do not try to book on the site.
Was so happy to have found the Bissell House Bed & Breakfast for my wedding! I wanted a backyard dinner / garden party theme for my wedding and this historic venue was the perfect ...
spot! Truly a one of a kind location - nothing else like it in Los Angeles. I loved that I didn't need a lot of decor as the venue truly speaks for itself with the beautiful house, yard, flowers, porch, etc. It was so fun staying at Bissell House for the weekend - each room is the perfect "grandma chic" aesthetic and we loved using both inside and outside for our wedding photos. Can't wait to stay at the Bissell House in the coming years for our anniversary!
