The good: Super cute place and a great value for the nightly rate. Hosts were great, place was clean and the view is definitely an awesome feature. It was also nice having assigned parking on such a tricky street with very limited parking.
The not so good (for me): I’m a writer, so part of why I wanted to rent this spot was to do some writing in a quiet and peaceful place with a view. This was challenging as the neighborhood had parties going on til late night on multiple nights. It’s also on the bottom floor so if anyone is staying or walking upstairs, it is very loud. The cleaning gal was upstairs on one of the days for a few hours and it sounded like an earthquake. I ended up having to find a cafe to write in which was a bummer and kind of defeated the purpose of my stay. Also, beware of the shower rod, it’s one of those twisty kinds and it fell on me a few times, which was comical at first but then just kind of became annoying as it wouldn’t grip the tiles without a lot of effort.
I would still rate this place highly though for a place to stay if most of your hanging is going to be east side. If you have to go to the west side, it isn’t an easy access spot. I had 4 ubers cancel on me just trying to get to DTLA and almost missed my dinner rezy.
It just wasn’t the right place for my needs, but I certainly wouldn’t rule it out for a cool place to crash and hang if you are going out a lot.
