I had a very pleasant, 5 - nights stay at Amar's place in Los Angeles. The communication with Amar was excellent, everything was as arranged and even special wishes like the availability of an iron and ironing board have been fulfilled. The apartment is nice and well equipped, it was also very clean.
The apartment has a balcony although one should be aware that the window and the balcony are not facing the street side but a pretty narrow and not very esthetic atrium. For me personally it was even a benefit as I was anyway spending all the days outside in the city and then could sleep well at nights as it was very silent, isolated from the street noise. However, if you are planning to spend more time in the apartment, would need to work a lot during your stay or are thinking about romantic time on the balcony, you may ask Amar for some extra pictures.
Amar's place is located right in the downtown of L.A. with the metro station few steps away. From the logistic point of view, the location is excellent.
There is also a small but very nice swimming pool with jacuzzi on the top of the building where you could relax and also have a chance to speak with some locals living in the building. This spot is also great to have a panoramic view on the city skyline.
Overall, I had a very good stay in Amar’s place.
