My wife and I were guests in Jeffrey's apartment at Alhambra, CA in January 2018, when we spent a week staying in this very quiet, peaceful and secure place. The apartment is located less than 20 minutes from Pasadena and around 20 minutes from Downtown LA, in a residential neighborhood close to commercial plazas within walking distance of Starbucks, 7-eleven, Rite Aid, supermarkets and lots of asian restaurants nearby.
The apartment is comfortable but not luxurious, and has almost all amenities such as refrigerator, microwave oven, electric oven, coffee maker, and dishes but has no stove nor kitchen. When we arrived there was no TV in the apartment, which was advertised in Airbnb, but Jeffrey as kind enough to furnish a brand new TV screen as soon as we mentioned it.
It is an ample space attached but almost independent from the main house, with its own access through the driveway and the backyard. During our stay the main house residents were on vacation presumably out of town, so we had the whole driveway to ourselves as well as a total privacy and tranquility, with the pleasant exception of one night when the neighbor was playing saxo.
Although the house is not new, the climate control system is and worked perfectly during those January days when weather changes from cold to mild in California, hence it gave a very comfy environment to a couple of Caribbean residents.
The apartment is very spacious, being the large bathroom probably one of its best features, with two shower splinkers and a jacuzzi large enough for two people. When we asked Jeffrey if the jacuzzi was usable, he informed us that it actually was installed only as a bathtub, which was just fine with us and next day we found in the apartment a copule more towels with a bottle of Epson bath salts as one more kind detail from him :D
Overall, our stay was very good, and our only complaint was actually the mattress of the master bed, which was quite too rigid for what we are used to at home. Since this is a matter of personal preference, it is not to be blame in the host, who again was extremely kind when he answered our comment on the matter by providing a brand new foam mattress topper to the bed, which he even installed himself while we were away.
Definitely, Jeffrey deserves a very special mention for his remarkable service as an Airbnb host. Funny thing, we never met face to face but nevertheless the communication and support was outstanding. Thank you Jeffrey, keep up tha good work !!
