This apartment location was NOT where the map pin was, which I found very misleading. Communication with the host(s) was confusing and created a logistical headache as we were planning our arrival. It seemed like the hosts did not communicate well with each other. The in-person host reached out using text message and wanted to meet at a location other than the actual Airbnb (likely because Airbnbs are not allowed in the building, which the host later revealed). This made me feel unsafe and uncomfortable since this was not explained to me. Airbnb will not offer customer support if your conversation is not recorded on the platform.
Apartment interior is as advertised, and the apartment was clean. The apartment and parking spot are in a secured building. This is not a safe part of town (don’t go out walking alone), but that advice is applicable to most of downtown LA. There was noise from adjacent units and a lot of highway noise that made sleeping difficult.
