Andrew's studio in Laurelhurst/Hollywood neighborhood was exactly what I was looking for. I had a long term stay of about a month and half. The location was awesome. Just a few minute walk to Trader Joe's and other shops/restaurants and not to far from Laurelhurst Park which I visited frequently. Also super super close to the Max station(1-2 minute walk). It had it's own private entrance through a secondary gate on the property which led to a private patio. The patio featured a hot tub and BBQ and a small covered awning with a table. There is a sliding glass door from the main house that leads to the patio too but I had exclusive use of this space the whole month and half I was there. I'm not sure if the patio is intended to always be exclusive to the studio unit or if it was a combination of pandemic and fact that I had indicated I was looking forward to some privacy during my stay. The unit it self did indeed feel very private and Andrew was vey welcoming and checked in several times via messaging/texts throughout my stay to see if I needed anything. And he was just right next door if there was a need and was very responsive if needed. The unit shares a wall with the main house that Andrew shares with a few roommates. At certain times you could hear them if they were in a certain spot in their kitchen. But other than that I couldn't hear them whatsoever and I would frequently play my music fairly loud through my portable speaker and it never seemed to bother anyone. You can also hear the traffic from the nearby freeway as well as the Max trolly and occasional freight trains but I found all this background noise to be soothing. There is a mini-fridge, Keurig and microwave and while it felt funny at first I adapted real quick to washing coffee cups and plates in the bathroom sink. Overall I was more than happy with my stay here.
