The good:
It’s a really clean, nice apartment! The beds are comfy and there’s a lot of space. It’d be really good for a group. The tandem parking is REALLY nice to have and the building is relatively close to DTLA (or Glendale/Pasadena if that’s what you want).
The not-as-good:
There is a surprising amount of noise coming from all directions that can be a bit jarring at times. Loud footsteps above, weights being dropped (?), conversations from outside even with the windows closed.
There isn’t very much for supplies in the unit. There isn’t hand soap that we could find and they provide small bar soaps/shampoos that make it feel a bit more like a hotel stay than an Airbnb. Perhaps that’s the vibe the guests that stay here are wanting, typically.
Also, the check-in process is a bit odd and the heavy emphasis on not talking to apartment staff and the key pick-up off-site does make the Airbnb feel like it’s not allowed at this building (even if it’s not, it’s just off-putting). Communication is also handled via text and not in the app, which is also relatively non-standard for Airbnbs I’ve stayed in.
