Marco's place is a solid option in Hollywood that comes with a few positives and negatives. Starting with the positives:
Marco was a great host. He was extremely responsive before and during our stayed. He provided a ton of useful information about the apartment and the area.
The location was fantastic. We had one of the second floor apartments and could see the ocean. The Hollywood Boardwalk is literally across the street. It's as close as you can get to the beach without it actually being beach front.
As far as the negatives, my wife described the apartment as barebones and that sums it up. It's essentially a motel with a separate bedroom and a small kitchen. It has the basics of what you need but nothing more. We prioritized the location so we were ok with this, but if you want a nicer place this may not be it.
The Internet was also fine most of the time, but may not be suitable for a work from home situation.
