If you’re considering booking “Luxury 3 BR Home Near Hollywood – Prime Location” through Booking.com, don’t. The photos are misleading — the villa was dirty, smelled of pot, and in a sketchy neighborhood. The host took $2,500 and disappeared. I contacted Booking.com for help but was bounced around for days with no proper resolution. I’m a Genius member, but that didn’t seem to matter. Save yourself the stress — book elsewhere.
