Just about as expected. The host doesn't keep the A/C on at all. She does provide a fan and keeps the windows open, although you're then susceptible to dog barking outside in the morning to wake you up. The shower was a bit dirty and the drain clogged, not to mention the entire hot/cold knob was broken off so you had to pinch the screw, pull and turn to get the water running. The bedroom itself was very clean and tidy, which was my main concern. We stayed 5 nights and for the price, I was satisfied. LA is expensive so being able to sacrifice minor amenities for extra spending money was well worth it. Would recommend for a short stay.
