We had a wonderful time staying at Richard's place! It is quite close to Old Town Monrovia and so we got to experience some of the amazing restaurants and vibes of the downtown. Overall the place was clean and well furnished. The check-in was easy and the internet worked great! We even had fun watching a movie on Netflix. Richard was prompt with communication as well!
There are a few aspects however that I would suggest can be improved. The first is that the mattress seems to sink when you lie on it. We had some discomfort the first night. We became comfortable by the second night though.
The second is that the kitchen has no cooking oil and the host said that they did not supply it. This seems a major amiss since the place does claim that it has all the cooking basics, which by Airbnb's description, includes "Pots and pans, oil, salt and pepper".
The third is that in the shower, the hot and cold waters faucets are swapped. And so the faucet with the blue ring, that you would expect to emit cold water, actually emits hot water! We barely managed to escape from being burnt.
The fourth is that the parking spot provided by the place is in the back, where you can't see you car. In contrast, street parking seems easier since it is right in front of the house. For street parking, it will be great if the host can inform the guests about the days of street cleaning so that you don't get penalized for mistakenly parking your car on the street on those days!
Overall I would recommend this place as a great place to stay!
