A really good Airbnb overall and true to the photos. Chris and Jason are on call if you need them (clean towels etc) but otherwise very hands off (we only briefly met Jason during the 16 nights of our stay) so if that's the type of Airbnb experience you prefer then this is a great one for you.
There are some nice touches such as the provision of teas and quality coffee and a great selection of books. The kitchen is fantastic and we would have liked to have made more of it if not for all the great restaurants and cafes in LA. The location is excellent, just off of Sunset Boulevard with its abundance of hip eateries and nightlife, but it's quiet/residential at the same time and only a short drive to Hollywood and Downtown (LA traffic permitting!).
We'd love to give this a five star rating but it fell short on parking. We very rarely managed to park on the street and on a few occasions we had to park more than half a mile, and a 15min uphill walk, away. This was due particularly to street cleaning parking restrictions on Thursdays and Fridays, meaning that we would drive home from a night out and drive around for 20mins trying to find somewhere to park. We didn't want to park on a street where we had to be up and out before 8am as we were on holiday! On the first night we were unaware of this parking restriction and received a ticket for $73. The hosts do mention this parking restriction on the info sheet but we arrived after long flights and didn't read it until the morning. A more personalised welcome would have helped avoid this from happening, or the offer for guests to use the driveway on Thursdays and Fridays would help, especially guests like ourselves who stay for consecutive Thursdays/Fridays.
