My husband and I have used Airbnb several times over the past two years, this was by far our most challenging experience.
We stayed at this apartment for 30 days, being hosts ourselves, I was surprised by the number of rules dictated at this place.
Also, it was surprising to see that Lana & Helena live in the living room and you will find at least one of them virtually all day at home.
We knew about the quiet hours, but we were shocked about showering not allowed after 10PM or before 8AM.
Also, kitchen can't be used for cooking whatsoever. We had to eat frozen food all month long to cope with the rule where kitcken was only to warm things up. Even though the kitcken is fully equipped, only the host can cook.
The apartment is extremely hot. It's summer! The air conditioner is never on. We had to buy a small fan to get by.
The apartment has washer and dryer in-unit, but guest are not allowed to use it.
The common areas of the apartment are listed as shared, but in reality we could only use the bedroom, the rest is pretty much forbidden or highly limited.
The only good thing about this apartment is the location. It's very convenient located near everything in Santa Monica.
Unfortunately, the constant presence of the hosts and the limitation of virtually everything made our stay quite unpleasant.
