Tu was very quick to respond via text so that was helpful. It was my first time that the host decided to provide an alternative location, that was a stressful situation but ultimately we decided to proceed with the stay since we had no other option. The new place was good in terms of space and the location being nice (still 40 mins away from LAX and most places in LA). There was no soap besides one small bar which was another inconvenience. The walls and carpet were pretty stained but not sure if that is the norm for LA hosts. Otherwise we had a decent stay.
