Nikolai’s home was a breath of fresh air. My partner and I came from the bay area looking to relax in LA and Nikolai’s listing did not disappoint.
Check in was seamless, we were able to input a code and enter the home. Nikolai offered us to meet him if we chose to but it wasn’t necessary. I think its considerate to give guests the option to decide.
When we first entered we were wowed by the thought put into the decor of the home- his home has a stylish vintage feel complete with tasteful art pieces, a full library, and a record player 😎
The balcony is the center point of the tree house. It has ample space for seating and grilling, had it been warmer we would have spent more of our time on it. Unfortunately, because it was too chilly to hang out on the balcony we just appreciated the view from inside.
The kitchen has everything you might need, all cookware and utensils. Theres even a cabinet of spices and tea/coffee. Theres no microwave or oven but there is a toaster oven, stove and mini fridge for your use.
We enjoyed our evenings watching netflix, courtesy of Nikolai. Visitors have access to all the major streaming platforms through his tv :) it was a really nice touch. The bed was very comfortable and high quality, which is not always the case at the airbnbs I have stayed.
The bathroom is stocked with fresh towels, shampoo/conditioner, and a hair dryer.
Nikolai certainly put a lot of thought into making sure guests have all that they need in his home. It even inspired me to think of what my future guest house might look like. We will definitely be coming back again to make use of the balcony during a warmer season :)
