I stayed at Chris's place for an entire summer (almost 3 months) while on an internship in the Los Angeles area. Overall, there were quite a few pro's and con's, but I would not recommend this place for a lengthy stay. Chris is very friendly and I can tell he does care about people. He was a kind host and his father Bruce was incredibly friendly. The home is quite close to Hollywood, so if you are staying for a few nights it is not a bad location. The area is also close to Bob Hope airport so it is convenient if you are flying into there. There is ample street parking as well for guests bringing a car. But unfortunately, those pro's did not outweigh the con's for me. First, the house was unkempt upon arrival. The bathroom looked as though it had not been cleaned in quite a long time. The kitchen was dirty and the refrigerator had not been cleaned for quite some time as it was packed with spoiled food. I reached out to Chris and he was apologetic and cooperative in refunding my cleaning fee (as I was the one who had to clean the bathroom and living area) as well as having his father, Bruce, clean the fridge. Throughout the trip, though, the shared space was not cleaned by anyone but me. The bathroom was frequently messy and I found myself being the one to clean it. I did not appreciate the lack of cleanliness in the house, especially because the host had previously commented on a review saying the house was cleaned by a professional company every other week. I did not find this to be true. Upon arrival, my room was fairly clean, but I later discovered a large amount of trash and dirt underneath the bed which had been left by previous guests. Mid-way through my stay, Chris decided he would be leasing his home on a long-term basis in the future and would be showing the room to potential clients. I was not made aware of this until there was a sign posted in the yard. I felt as though it was a little deceptive to rent a room to me, but not inform me that potential renters would be seeing the house and room on a weekly basis. Home improvements were also made while I was renting a room and I was not made aware of these until they were already happening. For example, the shower was resurfaced, but I was not told this until I walked toward the bathroom minutes before the work was happening. I was left to shower at Chris's second home next door for the 48-hour period after the refurbishing. It was quite inconvenient. Overall, I know that Chris lives a busy lifestyle, but I do not recommend this place for a lengthy stay. The bed was comfortable and the area was alright, but the lack of cleanliness and transparency were an issue for me.
