Great location, helpful and responsive host, comfy stay
Information about my group: I booked this place for approximately three months for myself and three other friends who were interning at a company in Redondo beach. We were able to get to work every morning within 15-20 minutes. Although the pictures show two rooms with queen beds, we were able to work it out with the host and pay a small fee to replace the beds with two single beds in each which was perfect for us.
About the host: The host is actually Hospy Homes, a company that specializes in providing housing for SoCal. As a result, I felt like communicating with the host was very professional and fast. After I booked the place, they sent me a website with all details on how to access the home, activities to explore in the area, and more. During my stay, we had a few encounters with locking ourselves out of our home, blowing the kitchen fuse, losing out laundry key, getting packages delivered to the host (the place does not come with a mailbox so occasionally packages will get delivered to host instead of to the front door; my amazon packages would get delivered to the front door though), and the host who lives close by would respond within a couple of hours to help us out.
Location: We loved this location. Just five minutes away from Del Amo Mall, 15 minutes away from the beaches, lots of great restaurants in the area, many great Asian markets, pretty safe, and fantastic weather. The gardens of this apartment were well kept and relaxing to walk through.
Notes: This place is right by a busy street so it can get loud at night. The kitchen is perfect for two people but can get cramped with three or more. The kitchen came with chopsticks, plates, cups, pots, pressure cooker, Keurig machine, tubberware. You have everything you need to have a comfortable short stay. You will get one parking spot allocated to you inside the gates and there's also plenty of free street parking around the apartment. The place was very clean when we arrived and there was even a note from the host welcoming us. The TV has a roku connected to it. Many electricity outlets only have two prongs so I would recommend bringing an adaptor.
Summary: All in all, we loved it here and proudly called this place our home for this summer. Everyone was sad to leave when the time was up. Thank you Allen for being a great host!
