My husband and I stayed at this airbnb for 3 days and 2 nights, it was the perfect location for us to visit Universal Studios and the surrounding areas. The neighborhood was nice, hosts were friendly and it was well in our budget. However, I do not recommend staying at this airbnb until the hosts take care of the following issues:
1. Cockroaches. We live in SoCal and understand that cockroaches are going to be an issue in the hotter weather. However, we found 4 living cockroaches during our stay that my husband had to kill and get rid of. I spoke to the host and when they arrived, they laughed off the situation and told us that the cockroaches were harmless and sprayed our room with bug spray in a few areas. This did not detour the 2 cockroaches we found after the bug spray. The hosts need to get a professional help maintain the cockroach problem and take it seriously when their guests rise a concern about it.
2. WiFi was unusable. It was very weak and we had to rely on our hotspots the entire stay. However, the host did attempt to add a wifi extender to the room. This did not help and we recommend they either not offer wifi as an accommodation or get a router for the unit.
3. Stains everywhere. Every towel, blanket, pillow case, rug, etc had stains. Even if the linens are clean, stains are extremely unpleasant to see if you are a guest. They should invest in white linens that can be easily bleached.
4. The shower was uncomfortable and difficult to be in. The way that the shower head is positioned is almost impossible to shower comfortably. This can be easily fixed by getting a detachable shower head.
We will not be staying here again and the hosts should highly consider our suggestions if they want to achieve a 5 star recommendation from other guests!
