Clint est un hôte merveilleux et fait un excellent travail pour rendre votre séjour aussi confortable que possible. Dès votre première rencontre, il vous fait savoir qu'il sera aussi impliqué dans votre séjour que vous le souhaitez, et il le pense vraiment. Il vous laissera être seul, être votre concierge ou quelque part entre les deux. Nos personnalités se sont bien entendues, et nous avons passé un excellent moment. Je recommande vraiment de séjourner chez lui pour une excellente expérience à WeHo. Merci, Clint, pour ce merveilleux moment.

Emplacement parfait très proche des magasins et restaurants. Target et supermarché à 5 minutes de marche. D'excellentes cafés

Hôte sympathique

Harley était un excellent hôte... J'ai apprécié mon séjour..

L'expérience authentique et l'hospitalité étaient hors pair. Atmosphère extrêmement conviviale et l'hôte Clint avait une excellente connaissance du quartier. Très accommodant avec une conversation intéressante et perspicace.

Je ne peux pas recommander ces hébergements.

Room 1 in Clint's apartment was very comfy, furnished with — among other things — a large soft bed that could easily fit two people, a space heater (a warm room is a must for me when I travel, so I was delighted, though I didn't often use it because the apartment was already at a pleasant temperature) and a fan, a large desk with nearby outlets, and an ensuite bathroom (a very nice surprise) with a lovely warm shower. The location is great, about a 20 minute max walk to the hopping parts of both Hollywood and West Hollywood, with easy access to public transportation — buses proceed regularly down Santa Monica Boulevard at the end of the block, and there's a red line metro station about a 20 minute walk away, at Hollywood and Highland. The room lacked for nothing, as far as my travel needs go, and Clint insisted on giving me the full hotel treatment and wouldn't hear of me helping to change the linens and towels. Clint is a really enthusiastic, funny, energetic host, ideal for people who want to throw themselves immersively into the 24/7 experience of his colorful world. After several years of living in the area, he has extensive knowledge of WeHo and is eager to share it with visitors. Clint very kindly offered to create a customized multi-day local tour for me; I wasn't able to take advantage of it, but I imagine it would be a great option for travellers who are more spontaneous than I am. In the interests of full honesty, this rental is probably not the best fit for someone who considers their hotel room to be primarily a place to sleep. Because I booked Clint's apartment relatively last-minute (after my initial MisterB&B host unexpectedly became unavailable), I had already planned out my entire itinerary, not realizing that Clint was expecting to show me around most if not all of the time. It was really sweet of him to want to be my guide, and fortunately we were able to squeeze in a couple of nights to hang out (including New Year's Eve), but when he learned that I was going to be out sightseeing most days until relatively late, he began scolding me practically nonstop for a week, prior to and throughout my stay, for not having consulted him about things to see or places to eat. I was repeatedly asked to justify (by which I mean, he insisted these were personal failings of mine) why I had decided to eat at a certain restaurant, why I scheduled my travel itineraries in advance, why I wasn't keen to change my plans, why I wasn't comfortable riding a scooter to the bar, why I didn't want soy sauce on my wontons (I kid you not), etc, etc. It was exhausting to be put constantly on the defensive and forced into unwanted arguments. Clint also accused me of being rude when I politely turned down his kind offers of food, ie leftover fried chicken from his fridge (he was dubious that I was genuinely un-hungry because, as he put it, "You're not missing any meals."). His reasoning was that it's considered impolite in Southern culture if you refuse to taste at least a bite of your host's food. As a fellow born-and-raised Southerner, I can only say that the hallmark of Southern hospitality is to ensure that one's guests are comfortable and feel welcome — not to make them feel bad if they don't eat your food or follow your suggestions — and I'm very sad to have to say that I found this listing lacking in that regard. Clint absolutely has a point that the community of MisterB&B hosts is not only special but a valuable resource for recommendations about local destinations and the LGBT scene. However, I feel strongly that the degree to which a traveller takes advantage of that resource should be up to them. Personally, I adore solo travel, being in total control of my own itinerary, and enjoying the experiences at my own pace (however fast or slow that may be), and I would never dream of expecting my host to show me around, for fear that I would be a massive imposition. It pains me to have to say anything negative about my stay, because I enjoyed Clint's company, and helping him record TikTok videos, when he wasn't in a confrontational mood. I feel sure he didn't fully comprehend how uncomfortable these conversations made me — he seemed to regard it as nothing more than good-natured teasing and dispensing friendly advice. And I could've overlooked it, if it hadn't been incessant. I hasten to add that this experience is mine and mine alone. Visitors looking for an immersive, spontaneous tour would undoubtedly mesh much better with Clint's style, and would therefore have a dramatically different experience.

Nous avons eu une très belle expérience, nous nous sommes sentis chez nous. Clint a toujours été très gentil, bavard et s'assurait toujours que tout allait bien pour nous. Nous avons eu d'excellentes conversations pendant mon séjour, ce qui m'a mis encore plus à l'aise. L'appartement est spacieux, avec une salle de bain privée pour nous, un grand lit et beaucoup d'espace. Le stationnement était facile et disponible.

Clint était un excellent hôte. Il a dépassé les attentes pour rendre mon séjour aussi confortable et mémorable que possible.
