I had an amazing stay at Josh's place! It is the ideal AirBnB experience for the right traveler. It combines the friendly, it combines the privacy and comfort of a studio with the adventurous outgoing vibe of a hostel.

Josh went above and beyond to be an accommodating host. When I arrived I mentioned that I needed a place to get some work done during my stay... 40 minutes later Josh had built me a vintage chic desk out of wood he just had lying around that would make any hipster envious.

The house is located in a great spot just a few short blocks away from tons of great food (be sure to get some AYCE Korean BBQ) and a short cheap Uber ride away from all that LA has to offer.

During my short 1 week stay I shared a round of drinks with a whole cast of interesting characters. A mix of both long and short term guests including everything from a navy veteran, to a professional skateboarder videographer, to a writer from Indonesia working on a book, to a traveling nurse working at the nearby hospital (the list goes on). One day I walked out into the main hose to get an extremely strong (seriously, watch yourself) cup of coffee and was privy to an impromptu photo shoot that seemed to have broken out in the living room.

Realistically, you could probably just hunker away in your room coming and going, and never even notice the crazy shenanigans going on around you, but you would be doing yourself a great disservice.

My only complaint is that I didn't actually get to see all that much of LA since I was so preoccupied with what was going on at "home". Oh well, great excuse to take another trip... I know where I will be staying when I do!
