The apartment was very cute and clean. I didn't care for the tree pods, possibly a butternut tree, dropping on my vehicle. No dents but still trying to clean my vehicle a week later.

Best thing for us was the location near our son's house. It has a let of stairs leading up that I had asked about beforehand but never heard back. It feels like a tree house, with lots of windows and trees. Very comfortable bed although I would have preferred a king. Suggestions for owner: coffee mugs - there was one huge one and then 4 tiny ones. Provide a few 12 to 16 oz. The water pressure was pretty bad and it was hard to figure our the hot water in the shower. I could not see the mirror over the bathroom sink (it was too high) and there is not another mirror in the whole place. The charging ports in the lamps was a great idea. Will definitely stay here again.

Great location, clean and great host!

In town for a multi-day event at USC. About 7 minute drive to heart of campus, great neighborhood. Comfortably slept my wife and I, and our 13 year old had the pull out couch. Everything was very comfortable and appointed. Host was super easy to connect with, highly recommend!

This was our second stay and it was just as nice. The neighborhood is friendly as we were out walking our dog as well as quiet in the evenings. We would definitely stay again when back into town for a weekend!
