I'll admit after booking, I realized there were two reviews on the less favorable side and wondered if I'd made a mistake. I did not. Darius is the embodiment of the Airbnb spirit. He is just a really great host — he's open, responsive to needs but not overbearing. I didn't have problems with fruit flies, light fixture or outlet coverings. During my stay, I was at the house a lot working remotely and sometimes Darius was around, sometimes. I felt my needs taken care of and didn't have to ask for anything. I cooked a fair amount using the stove and oven. I highly recommend this place and also getting to know Darius if you have a chance because he's got a really interesting LA life and is just a really swell guy I am grateful to have met. We definitely need more Dariuses in this world! 👍
