This was my first time using AirBNB and overall I would say it was a positive experience. The only drawback would be that upon arrival, I felt that the apartment was not quite as clean as I would have expected. That being said, the bathroom seemed clean enough, but tables, chairs, and counters could have used a wipe down before we checked in.

Other than that I have only positive things to say about staying at Nick's apartment. For one, Nick is excellent at responding to any and all questions you may have, and that is great when you're visiting an area that you are completely unfamiliar with. The apartment is pretty spacious and it is in an excellent area for visiting Hollywood/LA. At no point did I feel unsafe in the area, and major attractions were literally minutes away. For this reason alone I would say Nick's apartment was a great find for a reasonable price. There doesn't seem to actually be air conditioning in the apartment, but I felt that it got to be pretty cool at night, and I was never uncomfortably hot while falling asleep.

All things considered, I would recommend staying at Nick's apartment if you are planning on visiting the Hollywood/LA area.
