This was our first time using an Airbnb because we usually stay at 5 star hotels and resorts when we travel. But our house was under construction and we had to move out for two weeks. So we found a house a mile away and used Airbnb. I have read all about Airbnb and heard the horror stories about hosts who take forever to get back to you or never get back to you. So I didn’t know what to expect.
The house was very nice and clean and had a BEAUTIFUL entertainer’s backyard. A master bedroom with attached bath, a second bedroom with twin beds and a third bedroom with a large bed (don’t remember if it’s queen or king, but my 22 year old LOVED the bed and the room) There was a second bathroom right outside the other two bedrooms. A nice, open living room and nice kitchen.
Now let me talk about the host! I only had two issues while I was there. The electric lock needed a battery replacement and one of the toilets got clogged. But when I contacted the host, he replied in SECONDS!! I’m not kidding!!! And he took care of the issues IMMEDIATELY! I was so impressed by his service. And we didn’t have any other issues so we didn’t bug him, but since we were staying for two weeks, he would message us and check on us to see if we needed anything because we were so quiet!!! That is AMAZING customer service!! He owns other properties, so if you can rent any Airbnb owned by Shawn, I highly recommend it!!! But I really like this location and I’ll explain why…
Now let me remind you we rented this house because ours was under construction. This was 1.0 miles from our house where we have lived since 1998. We’re not originally from Los Angeles. But we love it here. And WE think our location (THIS location) is ideal for visiting Los Angeles. You’re very close to the 405, 118, 210, and 101 freeways. It’s a very convenient location in the San Fernando Valley that can get you to Burbank, Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, the Getty Museum, the Hollywood Star Walk of Fame and everything else you want to see in Los Angeles. So I HIGHLY recommend this location and this host and I gave him 5 stars. Like I said, I don’t usually use Airbnb, I use 5 star hotels and resorts and have heard and read about all the horror stories. If you book with this guy, you WILL be taken care of!!! And it’s a great location for visiting Los Angeles.
