I rented this property for 3 nights. It was my first time to LA from Minnesota. When I arrived I pulled into the alley to get the lay of the land and parked my car in front of the garage to drop off my bags before I went to park the car. I was greeted in the back by a hostile individual that aggressively confronted me about parking in front of the garage. Later to find out that was the owner of the rental. It really set a poor tone for the rest of our trip. I thought we were getting a separate rental, but this property is simply an apartment/loft above a garage in the backyard of the owners home. You can hear him slamming doors and yelling. He leaves each morning and you hear the garage open and close loudly. It may as well be advertised as a unit attached to the owners home. The only positive is the proximity to the beach other wise I would have given 0 stars if that was an option.
