The Abode team was very responsive to messages and questions leading up to and during our stay. Seamless contactless checkin and checkout. The apartment is very big! Perfect for two couples traveling together. Plenty of towels, and the beds were pretty comfy. Plus strong AC! There’s a coffee machine with a couple packets of coffee grounds and glassware. It’s a true two bedroom apartment with in unit laundry, a dishwasher and a courtyard-facing balcony. Plus a rain shower and a separate tub. Sink and toilet in a separate space, which is nice when traveling with groups.
If you’re staying in this area, you’re probably already familiar with the state of downtown LA. This is pretty centrally located near Grand Central Market and bars and what not, but it’s not the best block at night. Very many homeless people hanging outside. Also, since the block is so deserted, there were cars parked outside blasting music until 4am on Saturday, but I’m sure that doesn’t always happen.
Overall, it was a good apartment for what we needed and very clean and spacious. Would have liked to pay less with the lack of security, though.
