I do not recommend Maile's place AT ALL! I was there during an unusually cold, rainy LA weekend and the heaters in the apartment did not function properly for 3 days. I could not use the kitchen/living room because it was too cold. The host was patronizing and unpleasant when he and I were dealing with these issues. I told him I was going to ask for some reimbursement for my inconveniences (which he hasn't given me yet) and he hissed, "Fine, why don't you just pack up and go right now. We'll give you all your money back!" That was on a dark, rainy night upon returning to a freezing cold apartment. His tone of voice scared me--Where was I supposed to go at that hour? I'm a woman traveling solo from out of town!
In addition, the place is exceptionally tiny and not worth the money (even though city view from bedroom is great). The bathroom looks nice in the photo but don't be fooled. It is old, rusty and outdated. The shower faucet fell off in my hand which was just the icing on the cake.
Do yourselves a favor--STAY AWAY. You can find plenty of other places that, most importantly, have kinder, gentler hosts.
