We (two adult couples) stayed at this apartment for 5 nights in Spring 2012. We felt that the price for the apartment was too high and that the pictures and description posted online were quite misleading. The apartment is in a nice safe location, walkable to red/brown Fullerton line and restaurants/stores, which is the best selling point of the place. The kitchen is nicely updated. The apartment overall was clean. The deck area looked fine, though we did not use it. The one exposed brick wall is nice. That's where the good stuff ends! The apartment is furnished in what I can only describe as "thrift-store/mom's hand-me-downs" style. I would definitely not call it "tastefully furnished." The futon was uncomfortable to sit on, much less sleep in. The "high-end cotton linens and towels" were mismatched towels that we had to ask for more of, as there were only two of each for four people, and older sheets/bedspreads. There were two rolls of toilet paper for 4 people for 5 nights. The two bedrooms (one queen, one full) were both very cramped. The bathroom was adequate, and the toiletries provided were half-used bottles of Suave and such under the sink. I would not call it a "full marble bath" and the skylight was stuffed with newspaper around the edges. We were in the third floor apartment, which is two flights up a dismal and awkward staircase. The cable TV said "channel not working, try again later" more than half the time. Shannon was pleasant when we met her. However, following the booking she did not return calls/emails in a timely manner. Upon booking and getting charged the money, I didn't hear from her, then closer to the date called and emailed to confirm...no response for days until I called Airbnb and they tracked her down. On the second day Shannon left a note stating that carpet/sofa cleaners would be coming at 11:00 the following day. This was very annoying as we had to make sure to be out of the house, and they left the sofa dismantled to dry. This should have been done in between guests, not during someone's stay and with a half-day's notice. Overall, if the price was lower, this all would have been fair and fine, but we felt a bit ripped off for the price ($262 night, including all fees) and liberties taken in the description.
