My stay at the penthouse was so great! I was in LA for 12 days- great location for me as it was close to many dance studios (I was there for dance training!) and central to many things (Tom’s restaurant, grocery stores, coffee shops, corner stores). Although I didn’t go during this trip, this is super close to Universal studios & Burbank airport! Check-in was easy with the lockbox.
Ubers were so easy to get- especially if you are travelling solo, I would definitely recommend to get your ride to pick you up right outside the back gate (the back alleyway can seem a little sketchy at night). However, if you have a rental car, it’s nice that you can park it inside the gate!
The padlock on the gate is easy enough, but takes some time to undo/reclose the chain & lock. Although, I felt more safe with a lock on the gate & the locked door to the penthouse.
The penthouse itself was so cute & felt more lux with the chandeliers/decor. If you like to watch tv, there are 3! Even in the bathroom haha.
Dustin also gave me some recommendations, and when I asked for a couple more supplies, he had it brought to me! The cleaning staff were around the main house a couple times during the week if I needed something, I could just ask. It was really nice to have the laundry facilities in the back shed to utilize.
I did notice some bugs in the apartment (some ants by the bedside table, a few spiders in the bathroom) but it was not excessive, infested or dirty in any way. Trust me, I hate spiders and I was fine haha.
Overall, I had a great stay & would absolutely return!! Thank you again!
