Clean, cute, basic apartment in a great location.
It is noisy (white noise is a must or you won’t sleep). The listing over markets this as “high-end” however it is just a cute, basic stay. Nothing high end about it from linens and mattress to amenities. This home does not have any of the safety measures in place that are in their listing (hasn’t had them since at least March 2022, and missing about a dozen listed amenities.) Had I been here with family or kids I would have changed locations for their safety. I would ask the host directly if you need a listed amenity so it doesn’t affect your stay. (For instance there are no cooking oils or cooking basics, no toaster, no pack-n-play, shower gel, etc). I also had to buy shampoo/conditioner at a local Sephora because what was offered is 1oz of terrible product.
I had no plans to cook, but these are things future renters may want. Unfortunately I would not stay here again despite the amazing location and cute decor. It is disappointing when an Airbnb host is not honest about their listing. They are clearly trying to make more money by marketing it as high-end, and don’t care for the safety of their guests. Cheaper, nicer, safer apartments are available nearby.
I did inform Airbnb of the lack of safety measures (required in the State of Cali) and they refunded me 20% of my nightly stay for this issue.
