The check-in process was smooth and the host was responsive. The location is convenient and it’s the least expensive option in the area. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen and bathrooms were nicely updated. The house has obviously been cleaned - as in, someone has come to wipe down surfaces and change the beds and clean the floors. That said, the house could use some upkeep. The furniture you see in each photograph is in each of the rooms, but the photos have been styled so that some of the decorative items were moved from one room to another room. The rugs and dining table look much older and rundown in real life than in the images. Meanwhile, there are a few things that were left out of the photographs - for example, two fabric ottomans on the front porch that are quite dirty from being exposed to the elements, and new maroon cushions for the outdoor couch in the backyard (these were clean). A few things could use with replacing - for example, the food in the cabinets and fridge was quite old and should have been wiped down or tossed, and the blinds, which are filthy from age, time and LA air, should be replaced.
