My group and I had a great experience at this house. Everything was clean and very spacious. We had a group of 7 so it was nice to be able to have our own bedrooms and bathrooms. The living room area was big enough and comfortable for us to hang out as a group at the end of our days. We were very comfortable there and enjoyed our time in LA. I can see why people say the area is sketchy. However, on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being super sketchy I would rate this maybe a 4. I never felt unsafe or uncomfortable coming or going. The parking area is gated in as well. I would recommend this place. The price is great for what you get.
