I really liked the communication I had with the host via AirBnB. It was three of us who stayed at this beautiful guesthouse. Going up the 54 steps was a breeze; it wasn't as challenging as our minds exaggerated it to be. We didn't have an exact time we would be arriving here from Washington, but we gave an estimate, and according to that estimate the host made sure that the place was ready for us upon our arrival.
We really didn't have to worry about the exact time to arrive to receive a key from the host to enter the guesthouse because the host had given us the key code for the door entrance (no key required). When we arrived to the address we saw steps leading up to the host's house. After we parked on the street, we walked up the steps leading us past a gate on the side of the house towards the back to the guesthouse which is exactly like the photo on the profile so you know that you are at the right location.
When we entered the guesthouse, there was a printed paper on the table welcoming us to the place with WiFi info, host info, and helpful hints about stores and establishments around the location. The room that you enter from the entrance is the one room with two sofas and a bed (enough space for 4 people). There is a wardrobe where you can hang your clothes, and also extra comforters for sleeping are stored there. That space also had a TV with access to Netflix and iHeartRadio, VCR, DVD, XBox console with plenty of games in the drawers.
In the kitchen the host provided us with kitchenware and in the fridge there were some sodas/pops, juices, chocolate, milk, filtered water, ice pack and ice, etc, and garbage bags under the sink.
In the bathroom the host provided us with towels & toiletries (toothbrush, shampoo & etc.)
From the sun room there's an amazing view of Eagle Rock.
If we needed anything, we messaged Ken (the host), and he responded promptly.
Overall it was a great experience staying here. I wish I had more time to pop the popcorn Ken had in the kitchen for us, but we were too busy eating LA food. If we visit LA again then we'll be sure to book this place months ahead :-)
