Not a good experience for my 3 nights in Beverly Hills. In fact this would rate as my first bad Airbnb experience after staying in dozens of places from Turkey to Portugal.

With no AC, the apartment was stifling hot at night in the summer. Most of the windows were painted shut or couldn't otherwise be opened and the sole ceiling fan made more noise than breeze. It didn't cool down to a comfortable temp until 3 or 4am. I actually ended up spending one night sleeping in the car just to escape the heat. And that was my most comfortable night.

And it turns out the promised parking permit is non-transferable. I used it to park out front as instructed and got 2 parking tickets because of my out-of-state tags. And parking tickets in Beverly Hills are $63 each. The permit says its non transferable right on the back, so the host should have known and not over promised parking.

Finally, there was no toilet tissue on arrival. What the heck? I had to walk to the grocery store about a half mile away to pick some up.

On the plus side, the location was good and close to a lot of good restaurants and shops. Also, no problem with communication. But if I had to do it over again I would skip this place and just sleep in the car.
