After the location was revealed, it turned out this private unit was in a good location for me to explore the shopping along Melrose and the outdoor market at the Grove. There were many fun food choices and “street tacos” were especially good. The unit was just as advertised. The steps to get into the unit were clearly spelled out. The host used the app and another app, “guest app” to communicate which was a little hard at first, but turned out alright. I asked about baggage storage since I did not rent a car and the host had in his written policies that this cost $40 for 2 additional hours and that it would cost $200 if I did not remove bags by 1:00. pm. sharp. Again, it all worked out. A word of advice to travelers —the scooters Bird, Lyft and Spin were fun and for the most part inexpensive. But, I managed to take one out of the zone and it would not let me turn off the app until I dragged it back many blocks while I was still being charged, so pay attention to where you can take the scooter and whether you can leave it some place new or have to return it to where you got it! All in all, LA is a fabulous place to visit and this unit turned out to meet my expectations.
