Winston is a terrific host! He was super prompt responding to any question or need and put a lot of thought into making the place nice, clean, convenient and safe for all guests on the property. We had one adult and two teens staying together. Nearly all good: We loved that Winston welcomed our 2 dogs and we walked them throughout the quaint neighborhood daily. Atwater Village main commercial area is 15 minute walk and we enjoyed the coffee shops, bars and restaurants. The back patio was nice to sit outside and there is free shared laundry across the driveway - easily accessible. We parked inside the gate, literally right outside of our door which was VERY NICE. Cold AC in all rooms and many TV options, but not in bedrooms. The guys standing on the corner may be a bit off-putting, but the fact that Winston disclosed this in the listing made me not give it a second thought and there were no issues. Slightly negative: There were people staying upstairs and we could mostly hear only a little noise, as mentioned before, except when 3 big guys checked in - they were much louder and smoked right outside of our door - we could smell it (cigarettes and weed) inside our place. There is no dishwasher or full oven, but that did not bother us and we cooked many nights. Bedrooms are roomy, but the bed I slept on was hard and very basic. I gave this 5 stars because the apartment met our needs, was cute and clean, and I think winston would have done anything to make us happy - thank you!
