Ian's Airbnb was great! The house was clean and tidy, house rules and clean up instructions for check out were clearly explained on a paper right next to the door, and there was plenty of dish ware and blankets available to guests.
Ian's Airbnb provided a cozy atmosphere for our 8 person club retreat. We had plenty of space to do icebreakers, play card games, and hold discussions, and the outside area was a nice place for a cute photoshoot.
The power in the living room (the TV, overhead light/fan, and one small space heater out of four which were all plugged into living room outlets) briefly shut off a couple of times during the one night stay, but although I could not figure out why the shut off occurred, the power returned within a few minutes. The house was a little drafty, but Ian had many soft and clean blankets that we were able to use.
Although check in was very easy, there was a discrepancy between the location listed on Airbnb and the actual address. When I manually typed in the address, Google Maps showed me two address matches, but when I went to the one that corresponded with the maps pictures listed on Airbnb, I realized I was not actually at the Airbnb. This was a little frustrating, but I believe this is an Airbnb/maps error rather than a listing error.
Check out was also very simple because of the aforementioned list about what to do when checking out (wash dishes, where to put linens, etc), but we did have to have one person stay back to close the gate using the remote then walk through the gate when we left (because we came by car, and we wouldn't be able to close the gate after we drove the car out of the lot).
Ian was extremely responsive to messages (very quick response time), and the house was overall great save for the points listed above. I would definitely stay again. Thank you for a great stay in Van Nuys!
