Rina's place was comfortable, clean and cozy. I love the neighborhood this house is in! It made me want to move there :)
The master bedroom faces the street and we would hear a lot of noise during the night (car doors, construction vehicles, etc.) so we started using an app on our phone to produce white noise. The master bathroom was great and has an amazing vanity perfect for getting ready.
The listing says that the house is 3 miles from the Rose Bowl, but every map I did showed it was about 4.5 miles away (walking or driving)...this was the difference in us being able to walk home from the football game or having to get an expensive Uber/Lyft. Just FYI when you plan your trip!
The backyard was perfect for sitting and enjoying a cup of coffee, although we did not see a coffee maker in the house (we might not have looked hard enough). We also had trouble with the Wifi speed (had to resort to our hotspot) and the TV (we actually couldn't figure out how to watch anything). These are issues that probably could've been figured out if I would have asked Rina, but we had alternatives, so it wasn't a big deal.
Rina was a delight, although never getting to meet her. She quickly responded to any questions we had. I would definitely recommend this AirBnB to a friend while mentioning the items to consider listed above.
Rina- thanks for making our first AirBnB experience a good one.
