We needed to stay locally while some construction was happening on our home, with our 1 year old baby and two cats (required a non-refundable pet deposit).
Though the house had a few redeeming qualities like newer (low-end) furniture, character, decor, and books, it wasn't a particularly luxury stay.
No central AC, so you have to crank window units in the bedrooms only, so being in the living spaces during the summer was pretty unbearable. No microwave in the kitchen. No shampoo or conditioner in the (super loud!) shower. Location pretty noisy and not very walkable (also technically Echo Park and not Silver Lake). Communication was disjointed and not helpful/not related to this particular property.
We luckily were able to come home early to get some relief from the heat in the house.
It's too bad houses like this are being taken from long-term renters of affordable housing and flipped into Airbnb party houses or who knows what.
