First and foremost, Annabel stepped up and accommodated us last minute when our original booking turned out to be a scam so for that I’m so very grateful! This property is in wonderful location on the border of Beverly Hills and west Hollywood, 1/2 a block from 3rd street and a stones throw from Robertson Blvd in one direction and the Beverly center in the other. Super walkable and close to many great shops, restaurants, bars etc
The pros: 3 full and 1 half bath, updated cabinetry/bathroom and kitchen fixtures, huge living and dining areas, well equipped kitchen, front balcony, off street parking for 2 vehicles (important on a street that is otherwise 2 hour or permit only), quiet neighbors, easy check in, washer and dryer, iron, plenty of towels etc. and again I can’t reiterate enough LOCATION!! It really is in a great central spot to anything you want to do and safe, walkable neighborhood
I hate to even list cons bc I appreciate Annabel so much but a couple things that are worth mentioning in case they may be a deal breaker for some people-
Parking is tandem, meaning one car in front of the other, and it is snug- may not be suitable for larger cars. The front bedroom had a reasonably comfy bed and so did the middle non private bedroom (and this bedroom is attached to the living room so it is not private at all- I recommended she hang a curtain or something to make it semi private) but the 2 attached middle bedrooms are very small with full size beds. The only king size bed was in the back bedroom and the mattress is on a very low frame and it is basically like sleeping on a mattress on the floor. The bed is comfy but may be a problem for anyone with mobility issues. This is also a 2nd floor apartment with no elevator- again if you have mobility issues take this into consideration. Finally over all the apartment is decently clean and in decent repair but there were a few minor leaking issues and many scuffed up walls- I attribute this to it being probably a 60+ year old building but the whole place could benefit from a coat of paint, steam cleaning the furniture and a floor scrub. Not at all a deal breaker for our group but if you’re looking for pristine luxury this may not be it for you.
Overall we had a great stay and were close to everything we wanted/needed to do and would certainly stay again!
