My partner and I stayed at Selia’s apartment for almost 2 months while we searched for a more permanent residence in LA, and it met our needs perfectly. Selia was so easy to communicate with and always responded quickly to my messages. Before our arrival, she asked what kinds of amenities we would need during our stay and provided them for us, along with a few other things that we asked for after we got there. The night we arrived, there was an issue with the front door lock and Selia was at the property within minutes to fix it for us. She even sent us some rental listings in the area and gave us some contacts to help us with our house search during our stay, which was so thoughtful.
The apartment itself is in pretty good shape and it’s in a quiet neighborhood that felt safe even though it’s close to the freeway. We stayed over the holidays and we did have 1 package stolen from the driveway before we could bring it inside. It was sent to us as a gift and we didn’t know when it was delivered so it sat outside for a long time. If you are paying close attention to your tracking info on any shipments so you can grab them as soon as they’re delivered, you probably won’t have any issues like that. But we took our dog for walks around the neighborhood every day, usually my partner and I would walk together but occasionally by ourselves and sometimes after dark, and we always felt pretty safe.
The bed is very comfortable and the TV is huge! There’s a Starbucks and a Vons within walking distance (or an extremely short drive) so it’s convenient for snacks and groceries. It’s a good central location and easy to get to lots of different areas of LA.
We loved this Airbnb and Selia is just the most gracious and generous host there is. We would definitely stay here or at any of her other units again!
