This was our first experience using airbnb and we weren't sure what to expect honestly. So thought we'd be a little more thorough in our review which may be helpful. The place was as described and the location very centrally located being a few miles to the Ocean and beach if you head west, and to the East you have Beverly Hills and West Hollywood if you keep going. Those are just a short Lyft or Uber away. The sushi place across Santa Monica Bl, EnSushi, has an amazing happy hour. The airport is also only about 20-30 minutes away depending on traffic. The dual showerhead is very nice, as are the appliances. The king-size memory foam bed is very comfortable.

Though there is a cleaning fee, you do have to do the laundry which is $4 next door, for the sheets and the towels. We signed up for 3 of us staying there, and there were 2 towels in the bathroom. The other towel was located in the kitchen drawer, which Laureta pointed out to us. My brother elected to purchase his own towel and cups from Target when we arrived on NYE. We also bought some groceries from Target which is nice to have the convenience of a kitchen to use. My wife needed to use Wi-Fi to get some studying done while my brother and I left for the Rose Bowl. The 3 of us could not figure out how to log into the Wi-Fi, but Laureta was able to give us a password at the end of the day. We spent a few hours on Sunday doing the dishes we used, wiping things down, laundry, and sweeping. Since we had a very late flight out on Sunday, Laureta said we could leave at anytime which was nice as it allowed us to Uber it down to the Hollywood Walk of Fame and back. All in all, it was a good first trip and we have decided we would do it again. In fact, we may open our own house up for airbnb in Denver ourselves when the occasion arises.
