Steven's place is super central at Sunset Junction in trendy Silverlake (we visit LA often and love Good Luck Bar and Tacos Delta). For the price it's a deal--however, we were pretty appalled at the state of the apartment--namely part of the living-room ceiling falling down.
Coming form New York City, we understand the perils of maintaining old apartments--however, from someone that explicitly mentions about respecting and maintaining the cleanliness of his space​ ​it was pretty disappointing​ and appeared to have not been dusted in a very long time. Steven was very prompt in communication with us and did offer to refund us our 2nd night if we decided we wanted to leave, but frankly we didn't have time to try to find another place to stay on our last day in town.​ ​Steven was also aware of the ​ceiling, yet decided it was okay to rent out his place​ anyways​. The price for the location made it a fine place to sleep​--but if the apartment wasn't in a condition to be rented, then don't list it.​
