This spot is in a great location just a few blocks from the beach in Santa Monica and not far from Venice. Betsy (the owner) was very accommodating, meeting us early on the day of our check-in, to fit our schedule for the day. Her place was clean, bright, spacious, and welcoming, just like the photos, and she included some great muffins and wine for us to enjoy. The private and secure parking that's included is a great benefit and, since we were visiting over the weekend of the LA Marathon, made our frequent coming and going much easier. Windows on the front and back sides of the space let a nice airflow through too which was important during our stay as it was in the 90's. The furnishings, colors, and bedding all lend to a beach-feel and the neighborhood is fun to walk and still close to all the action in the area.
