The apartment is on the seventh floor and building does come with an elevator.
On our first day we uncovered a lot- most of which dampened our excited spirits (my first trip to LA). To the bare eye everything looks great, but after introductions and being shown around...once the host leaves and you get to take a closer more private look at everything including surfaces, you see the debris and dirt. Our first day we were told they were toiletries and cleaning supplies, this was false; We had to buy bleach and other household cleaners/sponges as well as air freshener.
The cleaning products were necessary because the first night we decided to make dinner and found two of the four pots in the house soiled with days old dinner hidden in the oven. It was so rancid we HAD to flush it down the toilet so the smell couldn’t linger. Unfortunately it lingered, so much so that we spent over $30 on cleaning products and yet it took hours for the smell to finally waft away.
The AC works great- you’ll be freezing, the linens were questionably clean- after seeing the state of the kitchen and bathroom I would be lying if I told you I would bet my life on its cleanliness.
The bathroom had many half used lotions and conditioners as well as bath salts -but no body wash, just a used bar of soap.
The host provided a bottle of wine which was extremely gracious of him.
Furniture is starting to fall apart, a lot of candles that cannot be burned because it’s down to the stump, which is actually a fire hazard. Wasn’t crazy about the comfortability of the bed but served it’s purpose. Overall -great place to stay for pictures if cleanliness/value isn’t what you’re worried about. But you should be because a large chunk of what you pay is for cleaning services. Just something to keep in mind. But again great location has a rooftop pool, the Jacuzzi was not open.
I do not know if I would stay at this location again, the place literally felt like the actual owner of the apartment can walk in any moment(Tell tale unfinished food, snacks and beverages)
And PS the snacks offered guest should be unopened and full. The host tells you that all of the snacks in the apartment are for your enjoyment but some were empty.
