Ultimately this isn't a place I should have clicked on, but I’m putting in a detailed review so one can assess on it’s own terms. First, the positive. The place is very clean, and is a spacious 1 bedroom that could probably fit ten people (more on that later!), with a full kitchen, bathroom, and washer/dryer. I didn’t use the A/C, but there is a unit as well as a ceiling fan. Angelique/Lateefah have also done a detailed and cogent check in packet with instructions. Location is very good for LA. You can hit both major freeways in minutes, and some important through roads. You can walk to shopping for food and basic restaurants. It’s not a cool area - wrong side of the Culver “tracks”, but it’s functional. Unfortunately, there are a lot of challenges to the unit. Ultimately they may not be - as I see them - dealbreakers for the casual traveler. But I am an OG Air BnB’er and I humbly believe I would podium at any event for world’s greatest houseguest. So, for the good of the OG Air BnB community it’s important to break this stuff down. The apartment is one of many in what is best described as an Air BnB Factory. They have another unit beside it (more on that soon!) and at least a few on the adjacent property. The curated and private Air BnB quality has been napalmed in this configuration. I don’t begrudge anyone from making bank as an Air BnB entrepreneur, but it’s starting to get out of control and this unit is a prime example of things run amok. No one is in control of the parking situation, including the spot that is supposed to be reserved for the unit. One night an SUV was parked in it, another night it was the sleeping area for a homeless man, another night the adjacent unit Air BnB’ers…I quickly gave up and parked in the shopping centre across the street. The is compounded by the fact that Lateefah is trying to manage a lot of these balls juggling in the air remotely. I will get messages asking if I’m parked in the right space, or if that is my loud music playing. When one responds (forcefully!) in the negative, she quickly bails as her ducks were never in a row. I can tell there is a lot of managing complaints, phone-calls and texts from the various parties. It’s just mass confusion. I would say the area is noisy, but not lively. By this I mean that it’s not party area, but it’s 25 meters from Venice Blvd. and you will hear racing traffic no matter what. It calms a bit at night, and I travel with earplugs and I didn’t have an issue sleeping from the noise. With the ear plugs I heard it very faintly. This is a personal preference, but if you like a firm or solid mattress this is not the right place. The mattress is...
