IKEA fans will really love this place as it seems the entire (95% or more?) makeover was done with IKEA products, of IKEA quality.
The portable AC does the job in the kitchen/lounge area, less effective in the bedroom which is at the far end of the apartment. We were using both sleeping areas (bedroom as well as lounge area futon) so the person on the futon had a cooler area; you need to leave the bedroom door open to get the cooling effect from portable AC at front of apartment.) Charming pitter patter of feet above, where owner operator family with small child lives above the AirBnb basement apartment. Easy to walk to L train a few blocks away!
