The location of this apartment is amazing. The space itself is nice, although you might ask yourself a few questions - why is the fuse box in the bed room? Why are there wet towels in the laundry when I arrived? Why are they so stringy with toilet paper and coffee? Again, its an ok place, but very clear the owners have done the absolute minimum they feel they need to do to make the space comfortable and convenient. Usually, I am not that picky, I just need a comfy bed and an easy check-in process. The bed here us fine. The check in process was horrible. And over, when you pay almost $600 for two nights, you feel somewhat entitled to voicing your grievances. I have stayed in many Airbnbs since I joined six years ago, and this is my only negative experience. You should know that this apartment is run by a third party who sends you a separate guidebook with instructions, that are unclear and overwritten. Sections of the guidebook that should intuitively have all the info on checking in do not, and their instructions make everything seem more complicated than they are - once I figured out how the apartment actually worked, it was fairly easy. I have stayed in similar apartments run by third party companies, and the check-in process was never as bad as it was with Abode. This listing is under the name Alex, but you are working with a company called Abode and will be messaged by whoever is working a shift when you contact them. Abode also has a separate pre-arrival online form that you have to go through, and they will hound you about it for the month preceeding your visit. Which I later found somewhat hypocritical, as they had no problem nagging me about filling out their form, when their company failed to actually send me the check in codes I needed to get into my apartment. About 10 minutes before I arrived to the apartment, I realized that the guidebook did not have the codes I needed to get into the locker with the garage FOB or my apartment. I messaged and called, and when I got a call back, the person assured me the information had been sent out 24 hours before, as it always is, and continued to do this (making me feel stupid) up until the moment she actually looked in my account and saw that it wasn't there. Suddenly, she remembered there had been a glitch with Airbnb the day before. This made no sense, of course, because if they knew there had been some sort of site-wide glitch sending messages through Airbnb, wouldn't you go through and resend the info? Look, I did get the info and my stay here was ok. But it was the inconvenience and condescension. Also, on my second day, they sent a message asking when I was checking out, because they had work to do on the apartment, although they "weren't trying to rush me out." This was the moment I decided I was going to leave a bad review, because if you were not trying to rush me and it didn't matter, than why ask in the first place? Especially when check out is 10 am, which is another but of preciousness here, as almost every other place I have stayed on Airbnb has an 11 am or 12 pm check out. If this is the best you can do, your stay here will be fine. The building community is nice and the pool is cool. Its a great walk to Venice beach or around Marina del Rey. But I will never stay here or work with this company again.
