This was a very clean AirBnB in a great location within reasonable driving distance to most places in LA. The surrounding neighborhood is beautiful and safe with plenty of street parking right in front of the house. The bathroom in particular was modern and spacious. The pourover coffee setup was a nice touch. Overall, I think it is suitable for a business trip or low-key vacation, especially for a solo traveler.
There are a few notable negatives that others have already mentioned. Although not as apparent in the photos, the room itself is tiny with little space to put your stuff, move around, or work/eat. The unit is in a narrow alley with little natural light and we were not inclined to use the patio as there is another unit in the same alleyway that uses the same entry gate right next to the table setup. The decor is very rudimentary and lacks character, which is fine but not really what I'd expect for an AirBnB Plus and the rate we paid.
Notably, the general experience felt very patronizing with an excessive amount of pre-trip messages requiring registration on multiple third party websites and gigantic no smoking/vaping signs (with inconsistent fine values) plastered over the doors and every wall. There was also an excessive amount of reminder texts (which I found strange as they do not allow non-emergency phone contact but have no reservations pinging my phone) for the rushed 10 AM checkout and associated fines. I understand hosts need to protect themselves from troublesome guests, but all of this is quite annoying for responsible & respectful adults and gives off a factory AirBnB feeling.
