As a first timer to Airbnb I must say it was an amazing first experience. Gregory’s apartment looked exactly as it did in the pictures and it was immaculate. He helped us start a fire one night in the fire pit and it was great. It feels like a little hidden oasis because the whole front yard is surrounded with plants, which we loved. Only aspect I can’t personally attest to is access to public transportation. The area itself did have good restaurants within walking distance but my boyfriend and I had a rental car all the days we stayed (which we’d recommend because LA is huge and very spread out). Having a rental made getting around immensely easier, we were able to do a lot more in much less time. But otherwise, absolutely great experience. Definitely give this place a chance!
