Stayed here for 35 days and I regret it. The floors are paper thin, you will see cockroaches, wifi sucks, laundry room is disgusting, and parking is nearly impossible except for meter parking. Unit is furnished very cheaply and the bed is foam not a real mattress.
The host Bruce is quite responsive and nice so I’ll give them that. The super guy Jésus was helpful and the long term tenants are sweet.
They moved me from the first floor to the 4th after the first night because I could hear the upstairs neighbor hum, flip on a lightswitch, walk around- it’s that bad. Also the oven didn’t work and a cockroach crawled into my drink. There was a cockroach in my new unit but I was just so done dealing with the host and whatever, it’s LA I guess. 4th (top) floor was fine in terms of neighbor noise, appliances worked.
The host will probably respond that I should have messaged him more to resolve these to my satisfaction- but that shifts the burden of your shitty airbnb onto the guest. When you pay for a product you just want it to work - not constantly address it to the host.
In terms of location it is right next to the metro which is convenient. Silverlake is close. It is pretty loud with traffic at all hours, people scream sometimes. People sell their garage sale junk here on the weekends which I thought was kind of cute.
Overall and okay place if you don’t have a car, enjoy bugs, and are mostly deaf! Not good value at all.
