David was great and very responsive before our arrival and during our stay he checked to make sure everything was ok. The listing was perfect for our stay in L.A. The home was very clean and is in a very quiet and safe neighborhood. It has all the things you may need, as far as kitchen utensils and appliances, extra towels/tissue/napkins, etc. there’s a huge parking lot across the street with more than enough places to park. At first, I was a little skeptical about parking there as it is behind a wall and you can not see your vehicle but all went well. There were only 2 of us but, there is more than enough space inside the unit for a family to stay. The only thing we noticed inside the home is there is only one tv. There are no TVs inside either of the bedrooms and this may be an issue for a large family or anyone staying there with children. There is a ton of space in both bedrooms where a tv stand can go or tv can be hung on the wall. The home is also pretty dark from the blackout curtains. We opened the curtains to let some light in, but be cautious getting dressed because the neighbor's windows are literally two feet away and they can see straight inside.
We did encounter an issue the day we were set to leave. David reminded us of checkout time the day prior, which is 11 am. However, the cleaning staff arrived at about 10:20 am. They knocked on the door and we came to the door and constantly asked who is it. No one answered and as we are guests in the home we didn’t open the door. We were also naked from just getting out of the showers and we were trying to get dressed. We immediately contacted David as we thought it may be the cleaners and we still had about 40 mins left before checkout. We got another knock at the door and again we said who is it? No answer, At this point, we heard someone punching in the door code and the lock clicked, and in walk the cleaners while we are undressed! We were pissed and immediately contacted David again. We felt as if checkout is at 11 am you at least wait until then before disturbing the guests and you sure as hell shouldn’t come inside especially if you hear someone yelling out to you. Even if u don’t speak the language you hear people inside and you know not to enter. It was a horrible ending to a great weekend. David gave us a call after we left and was very apologetic, He assured us this wouldn’t happen again. If not for this situation I would have given 5 stars.
