We chose Michael's studio because it is in the same neighborhood as my son's apartment. It is located in the back yard of the main house of the property. The house is rented on a monthly basis. The renters were very nice and did not bother us at all. I hope we did not bother them. The arrangement is private and quiet.
Michael lives in another part of town but he is very accessible through text, email or phone. All replies to inquiries were prompt. Prior to our arrival we asked if there was an area outside to sit. There is a patio. But, at the time the were no outdoor chairs. When we arrived Michael had purchased and provided an outdoor table with umbrella, plus 4 chairs with cushions. NICE! Now, that is deluxe attention to customer service and satisfaction.
The studio is large, with a separate large kitchen. We stayed 12 days and never felt cramped for space. It is clean and the theme decoration is spot on. It is new and fresh. The bed is very comfortable. The kitchen well stocked with utensils, everything you need. Good internet signal along with Apple TV.
The neighborhood is middle class, clean and quiet. There is a large park across the street. Nice for a morning stroll. Grocery stores are two blocks away. Convenient to freeways.
My wife and I were very satisfied with the studio. When we return to LA to visit our son again we will look up Michael first. We have stayed in several AirBnb places. This is one you can't go wrong with.
