Monica's apartment was exactly as pictured in the Airbnb listing! My boyfriend and I were in town for the ND vs. USC football game that was on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, so her apartment was in a very convenient location! We took the Expo line, which was VERY close by to get to the Coliseum and we also took it into DTLA.
The interior of her apartment was very stylish and contemporary. Getting access into the apartment felt as though I was in an escape room because you had to go to a lock box first to get into the building and then another lock box to get into the apartment before getting the garage remote key inside the apartment to be able to access the garage if you're arriving late at night. I didn't mind the multistep process because it shows that there is a high level of security to get into the Airbnb.
My bf and I appreciated the fresh flowers on the kitchen table when we arrived and felt the place was perfect for just a weekend getaway. The complimentary water bottles in the fridge was great and there's a Starbucks located conveniently on the ground floor of the building.
Monica was very communicative before our arrival and after our departure. I would definitely stay with Monica again and would recommend her place to anyone looking for a weekend retreat near LA Live and DTLA!
